Aircooled VW South Africa

Well i got myself another project ,it basically got given to me







I will leave as is as much a possible and best of all its complete

Anybody know where i can get a 6v battery

I can see the potential.
6V batteries are hard to find and expensive.

Nice bug

Nice project,, all the best with your project

good luck with it.
Motorcycle shops used to be a good source of 6V batteries. But surely anything can be ordered if people are willing to help

Nice find !

Nice, looks like mine just a little worse for rust.

Why not try revive the battery. I managed to get mine up again after 20 years of standing and being dead as a dodo. See my thread somewhere on this forum. Think it was under technical. Will also have a look.
Found it.

Vonde batteries in Maitland stock the Varta 6v battery, but you are going to be horrified at what they cost now.....

Are you the Redneck in the green vest?

HaHaHaHa Nope that is my side kick

Not so complete ,missing peashooter x 1 and The battery

nice rack

Well with my luck ....
1:The owner cant find the papers
2:The last yearly license was paid in 1989 in Namibia
3:He lived in Nam, Went to stellenbosch university, Got married and stayed in stellies ,never got the car imported to SA

ANY ANY ANY HELP REGARDING THIS WOULD BE APPRECIATED

Wow that is worse than what I am busy sorting out
I am guessing lots and lots of papers and police station visits declaring everything. Will try one of my friends and see what they can come up with.
