'49 tailights! They're a bugger to find :lol: :lol:
I'll gladly swap my tatty old beetles for your Miura anyday! :D
Seriously modified early cars are guaranteed moneypits.
I'm not saying that they are'nt fun of course because there's no denying that they are.
They will give the builder/owner the instant glitz & glamour they obviously crave, but then when the excitement is over they sell usually for half the amount they cost to build if they're lucky.
The most valuable beetles in the world in real cash terms are obviously often military period but always stock and often with provenance.
I figure we all have our fun messing about with beetles, thats what vw's are great for, with such huge numbers built they are rarely, truely rare.
But at the end of the road I have realised that the people who really know, the people I really admire for their knowledge and good judgement, have usually got white hair! and are all much older than me, know much more than me and they all own stock cars...
