58 beetle project 1200.00 Call or text 250-307-2056

Car is mostly here it should have both pans redone properly, the one side the battery tray was redone this half is solid, the other side was half replaced but I think for strength the whole thing should be redone. that being said I had planned to hot rod this thing and cut the rear section a fair bit and front (not complete). There are many parts including lots of original glass except for one door window and a quarter window if memory serves. Running 1200cc engine I tested it and it fired right up. There is ton of odds and ends shift knobs, 4 bumpers, fenders, new tires, was told the brakes were new as well. There are also spare shocks original tail lights (2 sets) and headlights. That being said I will let the pics speak for themselves, while I know volksrods are not for everyone this car could be restored to original again with some work. There was also some previous repair damage behind the rear quarter window that had been filled with lead. Also have some new stamped sheet metal for the rust spots in the rockers.

I only have 3 beetles and a single cab, Johnny has the most. I think we all have a bit of a vw addiction.

Big shout out to William. Seems like he is doing everyone a "solid" here. Don't even know the guy but he's top shelf as far as I am concerned. Right up where Ma keeps the peanut butter. Thanks man

Well , the trip was awesome !!! After many drop offs and pick ups , torrential down pours , cancelled ferries , lost on the new highways leaving tswassen ferry to get to horseshoe bay , popping out of the fog at the foot of the patulla Bridge !!!!! Don't ask me how , but I managed to get truck and trailer on the 9 ferry back to the island !!! Whooooly what a day !!!

The 58 bug , who I originally bought it for , came to my house , sun shinning of course and let me tell yah , it could of been a hurricane , there was no way taking that smile off of his face !!!! Priceless

Thanxs for everyone who helped get William loaded up and brought down , now a trip to cobble hill , a trip to Powell River and this will have been the best veedubin adventure to date .

BTW , the 58 is getting a complete restoration back to its original state
