Reluctant sale of 1970 VW Beach Buggy GP in red

I bought the completed floorpan from the previous owner in March 2010. The GP body came with it and had been untouched for at least 12 years.

I completed the rebuild in October 2010.

First MOT completed on 25th of October 2010. no advisories.  

Following MOT dated 11th of May 2012. no advisories.

Just had MOT dated the 21st of June 2013 again no advisories.

The car has covered 100miles in the 3 years I have owned it.

 

Work done to floorpan when I bought it includes.

New pans. front disc conversion. chrome wheels (little bit of pitting here and there). later model rebuilt gearbox. rebuilt engine and transmission. brakes and fuel lines. painted in red and black.

 

Work done since I bought it.

New wiring loom (Alternator). nbsp;chrome front lights - mirrors - front nudge bar - fuel filler cap. lowered black leather Saab front seats (very comfortable unlike bucket seats) narrowed rear black vinyl Beetle seat (Fits two adults comfortably) Cd player with I-pod connection. 4 quality speakers. Mk1 golf centre console. powder coated roll bar. chrome engine dress kit. powder coated rear engine bar. LED front indicators LED rear tail/stop and indicator lights. LED number plate lights.

The body has been trimmed at the rear arches and side pods with chrome mesh grills added

The V5 states.

Date of reg - 01/07/1970

Make - Volkswagen 

Model - 1500

Body type - Convertible

Tax Class - Historic.

I also have a 'Birth Certificate' from the Stiftung AutoMuseum Volkswagen in Wolfsburg Germany for the original Beetle (Same VIN number) built on the 15th of May 1970.

Insurance is less than £100 a year. I'm 45 years old with too many Vw's.

The car was originally bought for my 17 year old son with a view to it being his first car (Cheap to run/insure etc etc). He is off to university and is not interested in it anymore. I love it but don't have the time to use it (Hence the low mileage since completion). I have another project opportunity so it has to go!!

The car is in Whitstable. nr Canterbury in Kent. viewing is welcomed to those who are seriously interested in buying it. its priced low to sell.

The tax (Which is free) runs out on the 31/07/13 so the car can be driven away.

Bad points.

The fuel gauge has decided to pack up. /strong>

The side pods rattle a bit so need properly securing (I intend to do this sometime this week)

There are a few marks/cracks in the body but nothing serious.

Thats it!!!

I have seen buggys not as good as this go for silly money recently so come and have a look and make me an offer. Its not perfect but is a very good example.
