I think you sold one just like it!!! You could sleep in the bug but i doubt it would be any fun.

it has been over a year, really miss the bug, but i guess i will have to be happy with the thing for right now, i have a 66 beetle that i started painting but kinda lost interested in, a guy came and looked at it and i think he might come back and get it.  just bought my wife a cabrio,  i can only have so many cars at once

I had a couple people say they were interested but havent heard from any of them ?
Rick knows where the car is and he has my permission to show it,drive it,or sell it.
The only thing you need to talk with me about is where to send the money and for me to give you the title.
After I get settled down here in Texas the cars coming here and it wont be for sell. Buy it now if ya want it,there's not alot of pre 64 cars that are og left...let alone in Chattanooga.

Open to offers!! I found something out here in Texas that i'd like to get so I'll take any reasonable offer.
The following has been done to the 63.
all new suspension including 6 inch narrowed beam built from new steel $400
Womacks extended springplates $200
2.5 inch lowered CB drop spindles $400
new kings and links $200
All new brake hardware and shoes og drums turned.$100
New gas tank $100
Rebuilt 40 hp motor with a few hundred miles on it $800
Brand new low pro tires driven maybe 20 miles $400
New pans and heater channels $1000
headlight rock guards $100
Wolfsberg west cocoa floor matts $100
very nice hurst chrome shifter $200
new trans boots and other small stuff.

As you can see thats $4000 in just parts!!
Plus the $1500 for the barnfind car
not to mention labor if you dont know how to do any of this stuff!!!

My interest have changed and this is a great opurtunity for someone to get a 99% finished OG car for cheaper than the parts cost on it.
I will take the 1st reasonable cash offer if it dont sell fast then I gotta ship it and I dont want to mess with the hassles.

The only thing you could do to it and keep it OG is replace the aprons and fix the rear1/4's I wouldnt touch it but if you want it restored it wouldnt take much.
