Probably the best deal on the AirCooledCanda site right now.  Two 1959 bugs for $2k.  Rick is in Lethbridge and he makes regular trips in to BC so you may be able to work in some transport on one of them.  No, his single cab is not for sale. :)

... and not only does it lack of a picture of the dent....but there information seems wrong: cylinders: "3", title status: "rebuilt" and color: "orange" (and not to come across as a VW snob, but it's Sierra Yellow!).

My thoughts exactly! Not one runner in the bunch, not specifically appealing as a group... individually, probably do better financially too. As they sit, hopefully they'll change their mind.

Quote from: seller
The nose skin was replaced in the late 80's by a profession body shop. I do have the receipt for that as well.
Looks like a 70 aside from the nose skin to me, if it really was done in the 80's it may have been a real deal VW replacement part opposed to the thin Brazil version, fairly minor issue if the rest of the bus is solid.

Minor issue if you don't care that it isn't original. I'm sure it's not a structural problem, but he's asking 8K for a bastard bus. Maybe they will take less..... ;D

I'm not defending the seller, don't know him at all. But the sad reality is that's not really out too out of line these days for a fairly solid driving deluxe with a fresh motor, working sunroof, all it's seats and a pile of service reciepts. Shitty looking paint and an odd nose are minor compared to $10K+ worth of rust repair, bays aren't cheap anymore, especially early ones. If you think that's nuts check out some of his other ads.

True dat. But have a look at another one the same guy had for sale last week. If I had any money, I would have bought it. He was asking $3250.00. No sunroof, but... it lasted one day.

I'm sure he was asking $8K for the other bus but could be wrong. I think the ad was edited because I do not recall seeing that the nose was replaced.
