Until I saw the gutted interior I was going to say yeah, that's probably fair for a rust-free example with under 10k miles (if that's accurate). Also that's not the original exhaust, wonder what else has been modified. It's also missing some other trim pieces, windshield wipers -- lost in the r

Not an unreasonable price on these things, although that one looks stripped out so not sure how that would affect the price.  A buddy has one, I should ask him what they are fetching. There's a guy on the next island over who had a backyard business restoring old VW buses, I don't know if he i

The fact that it didn't sell tells me the owner is being unrealistic about what it is worth in that condition. A 23 window type 2 can fetch 6 figures, if it's nice/original. This one isn't. On Sun, Apr 10, 2022, at 9:30 PM, Andrew Strasfogel wrote: > Bid to $55k and no sale so your observation m
