Distance is a state of mind.......... wow that sounds very new age :hmm3grin2orange: send me some pics.

All chrome is new. All the fenders are new. The entire interior, headliner to carpet and everything in between is new. Even new window cranks. The car was painted a while back, by no means a show paint job but very presentable. New wiring harness. New hub caps and trim rings. Every piece of weather stripping on the car has been replaced, even the inner and outer window felts. New battery. New muffler. Adjustable beam. Lowered one click in the rear.

This may sound strange, but I would really just rather trade the car. In the past when ever I sell a car with the plans to buy a replacement it never seems to happen that way, I end up spending some of the cash on my other cars, the wife always wants some of the cash for other things........ the car I sell never seems to get replaced.

How many do you have ? I am looking for a running driving car, I looked through your gallery, looks like you have several project cars, any running driving complete cars ?

Nahh not hard at all, a little cutting, a little welding, mud it, then hit with high build, block it, and shoot it, I do have a half gallon of paint to go with the car, so at least you could match the paint.

You got a hell of a deal there, good luck with it, sounds like great start.

Well the thing that keeps it from being a 18-$20'000.00 car is the back window, the guy I got it from grafted in a pre 52 split rear window, basically ruined the value of the car. Its cool as hell because you just DO NOT see split window Bugs this far east, but it would be worth more if it still had its original rear window.

72 Super, ahhh a fat chick, if you know Beetles then you know that this being a semaphore car WITH its original working semaphores, its something special.

I have a couple more Bugs, I would never get out of them. I have just always wanted a Conquest, preferably Red with black interior, but beggars cant be choosers.

Hello, I have been lurking here for quite some time. Kind of a funny thing, I take my family to Pigeon Forge every year for 4th of July and I always make it a pint to come by and check out the the cars during your meet up. I was parked next to a nice red one at the Food Lion, red with what looked like black BBS wheels. black fender welting on three out of four fender wells, whoever that belonged to...great ride. I was 18 years old in 1986, tried to buy a new Conquest at the local Chrysler dealer, not enough credit at 18 to get that loan, I have been through countless "toy" cars since then, Jags, Chevelles, a 40 ford, even a string of pre 60 beetles. I am looking to trade my latest addition for a Conquest, I have a restored 1958 European Beetle, I know, I know VW's suck, I have just always had a soft spot for the little fools. The car is pretty sweet, not perfect if anyone might be interested, I am just outside of Louisville KY. http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w150/woodyxjs/lid0044444448.jpg http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w150/woodyxjs/58bug014.jpg http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w150/woodyxjs/58bug010.jpg http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w150/woodyxjs/58bug011.jpghttp://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w150/woodyxjs/58bug008.jpg
