LOOK! 1974 Project Sliding Steel Sunroof Super Beetle, MUST GO ASAP, Best Offer

I have 2 project bugs and no time to work on either
(working on startup business - been back on the east coast for 10 months)
so as much as I hate to part with one I need to do it. ASAP! I've done 3/4 of the work
I planned to do on this car but I don't have the time or cash flow to finish it right now.
The car has been sitting since November 2003 waiting for me to work on it I am way too
busy right now to finish it though.

So you might want to flush the fluids in it and recharge the battery.

About the car:

You can see it here as it is being sold (chrome rims):

How it looked as a German Looker (I'm keeping the rims)
http://www.dancatts.com/asgermanlook.jpg



- Sliding Steel Sunroof
- Located in Pleasant Hill, California.
- Lowered front (adjust a struts) uerethane bushings
- strut tower brace
- lowered slightly in rear
- KYB shocks
- Fiberglass Fenders wider than stock fenders
- 2 spoke Porsche Steering Wheel
- H4 Converted Halogen Autopal Headlights
- Shaved Turn Signals relocated in euro bumper
- Smoked Tail Lenses
- Fuba Roof Mounted Antenna
- Front Seats good condition
- Polar Silver Frost Paint (2 years ago) Still looks new, inside painted but not
inside of trunk or underside of decklid
- Electric pump winshield washer pump (converted from scirroco)
- Currently has stock 34 Pict/3 carb modified to work with 009
- 009 Distributor
- Merged hide out exhaust
- Tiger CDI ignition
- 1600 engine
- chrome wider than stock rims with wolfsburg nipple hubcaps

What it needs but I didn't finish:
- Engine Rebuild. Has low compression. Unknown mileage as odometer broke. I imagine anyone with a little
knowledge of VWs could get it running again without too much work or expense.
- Headliner
- Radio, currently has none.
- I patched the floor board rust, in an ideal world I would have replaced them but
at the time I just wanted to keep the elements out.
- I had some porsche rims on it (was going for the german look), but I am selling them seperately.

BEST OFFER TAKES IT. I can't store it any longer. Buyer has to arranger pickup/tow.
If you are local and want to swing by and take a look at it that can be arranged. Looking
for a quick sale though.

PS: Might be interested in trades for running engines as my other project needs engine work as well. So let's make a deal. Serious offers only please. Let my loss be your gain.
