Hey.. that's not a bad price at all.. if the car is solid (no rust) or severe body damage. 1967 is a great year. It has several one year old body parts.

Hey isnt that an European Volkswagen Magazine? My local bookstore used to get some of those pricey VW magazines from Europe...the logo looks similar.


As far as rust....around here they can be absolute rust buckets and people want thousands for them.

Yes, It's fairly new in terms of magazine age. Good quality photos seem to pepper it.

"Want" is the keyword. I've seen those guys also and chuckled as I drove off. It depends on where the rust is. Floorpans can be fairly inexpensively replaced.. but if it gets into the body you are talking serious repair.

$500 is great deal if solid. Look inside the front/rear fender wells, then check the belly pans. Battery rot is ok.. but extensive rot is signs of deeper trouble.
