Aircooled VW South Africa

Bought a 1959 Single cab about a month ago for the handsome sum of.......R500-00. Totally Original, a few add on's over the years, but solid and ZERO rust.

Pics will be posted soon.

I Hate you.

All I can say is that locals are looking in all of the wrong places.....I picked up a 1966 ex military 11 window as well in the NW for R2000-00. Dunno what to do with that one yet...........maybe build another garage.

You lucky fish! Please keep me in mind when (not if) you stumble onto one of these again. Pleeeeezzzee!

danie:
saani has got one 4 20 000, that seems a good price
otherwise: current motor ads: fleetline project 90% complete 19 000

Hi,

where's the country buggies ?

Country buggies? Please explain. Is that the same as Beach Buggy?

Nope, a steel-bodied off-road buggy made by VW for the Australian market. Ugly as hell, but VERY rare Google 'VW Country Buggy' for pics...
