@Mobius_1: Good lord, man, I didn't think anybody was even going to see my comment, let alone respond to every single one. You, my friend, are fantabulous and I salute you!
There's another '79 for sale in Toronto in much nicer (albeit restored) condition for $13k. It's also the most expensive Type 1 on Auto Trader in the area. I'd say crack pipe, but if you're spending 35 grand on a frakking VW Bug, you're probably not in the state of mind to keep any money left over for your drugs.
Someone's gonna have serious buyer's remorse on this car.
A single-digit odo, unmolested VW vert is like discovering the location and purpose of the clitoris. It's definitely something you want to explore further.
But not for this price tag. Wouldn't "VWs for Dummies" be a smarter investment?
So, this dealership has basically created a slowly decaying Beetle, which they then want to sell for the sort of money that would buy you, well, anything you fancy really?
That display of business acumen and automotive intelligence would make me vey wary of buying anything else from them.
@Stoatmaster: Exactly. If the plan was to squirrel away a treasure, well, one should take care of said investment instead of letting it rot away. Personally, I think they forgot they had it. It was under a box or at the bottom of a closet or something.
