The maddest baddest baja beetle

[generally01]

Get the maddest baddest baja for the summer. It arrives at mine on Friday so I will have a better idea of condition by the weekend.

Based on a 1964 bug, converted and registered in 2001. Was bought by a garage owner for his son but his son rolled his 3 week ond MG so the baja got sold to me.






This has been well built and just needs a little TLC to be cruising again (I'm tempted to paint it in camo colours and keep it for a while myself).

If not sold by the end of the week I think I will break it so let me know if you want anything off it.

Comes without the engine. £400

if you break it i'll have dibs on the rear wheels, providing they are at least 10" wide and 4 stud vw fitment. :-P

I got this delivered today and have had a look about it. Its a 70's shell that has been converted and fitted to a 64 chassis. Goob, solid king and link front beam with adaptors to fit what look like Chevy/Jag pattern 5 bolt wolfrace wheels.
Coilover shocks on the back, HUGE tyres front and rear, cobra seats (need re-covered. Floor pans look solid (havent had a good prod yet) with no obvious holes, loads of Baja kit fitted so would be a great start for a project or a parts donor for another car.
Could do with lower rear quarters replaced, Bulkhead corners in the front are holed as well but I can see no other holes. Front inner wings are scabby but not holed. The door bottoms are scabby as well, if I was keeping it I would screw on some tread plate and paint the whole lot camo colours.
Have a look at the pics, more than £400 of parts fitted to this I just cant be arsed stripping it.
