Well it is time to sell the super, Its titan metalic grey, under the hood and trunk its still green tho, very little rust, just on surface, front fender was hit, but i punched out the dent and it needs very little body work, and paint, floor pan is excellent, nice wheels, very good stereo, motor rebuilt about 12,000 miles ago, but it does leak oil not that much tho, new interior, hurst shifter, header and dual quiet packs, lowered with adjustable struts just put in recently come with it, i have a gas heater, a rear bumper and hubcaps, the tires are new and the heater works well (the one running off the motor)

I'm asking $3800 for it firm, needs little work to be complete, call my cell, (604)-790-0856 ,Tom

I just saw him driving back from airspeed on friday!

KOOL-AID MAN · « **Reply #5 on:** March 14, 2004, 07:28:23 PM »

ya it was pretty much my fault, went around a corner a lil to fast merging, i was in second gear probably going 40, the back end kicked out unexcpectedly, and i went right into a lamp post, got a ticket too, so now i think im gonna lose my liscence, its the shit thats all i have to say, i will probably be selling pieces of the car, i didnt have collision on it so i wont get anything for it,, damnnnnnnnnnn!!

kirin · « **Reply #6 on:** March 14, 2004, 08:08:43 PM »

Sorry to hear about your loss. Does it look repairable?? Send me some pics.....perhaps me and my class can fix it for you. Just pay for parts we'll donate the time. Is that a possibility?? We have put out some nice work. Let me know

KOOL-AID MAN · « **Reply #8 on:** March 14, 2004, 08:21:33 PM »

i will get some pics and post em, i dunno, the strut is bent, the steering is gone, and the passenger door has been pushed in and everything, i dunno if its worth the money, i'll have to take a closer look when it is light outside.

So you had it towed home I guess.

Try and get pics of the door gaps, maybe take the front fender off and take a pic of the inner. If it is bad does someone have an inner he can cut out??? Take a pic of the inside of the hood and around the windshield too. Don't forget....parts may be found used and labour is the expensive part. It may look worse than it is.

If I have a door and a fender i'll donate those..

KOOL-AID MAN · « **Reply #12 on:** March 15, 2004, 06:32:30 PM »

ya i jsut looked at it in the daylight, the whole front end will need to be replaced, all the tie rods and that jazz, fender, the door is fine, it has just been pushed back a bit, the shock is kinked, im gonna have to take pictures, i dont have a digital camera or a scanner, so i have to borrow someones, so your gonna have to bare with me, i think i might just sell the car as it is, but im not sure yet, desicions desicions, anyways, ya i will try to get the pictures done as soon as possible.

Wow the aircooled community sure is a big help, thanks guys for the offers and such. I think i have a new plan of action, i might buy an other super beetle, a 72 thats in rough shape and use my good parts to make a good one out of it, i have to see if my parents are ok with me having two bugs on the driveway first, i will keep you guys posted, and that extra chrome wheel sounds good stevo32, i dont think i'lll need the door tho, thanx guys for all your help, i greatly appreciate it.

No problem Kool-Aid. Let me know if you want the new ride painted. Guarantee it's cheaper than anywhere else. U pay mark up on parts and no labour. Let me know
