Ok, here is my problem....?

I have my fasty up for sale on the Samba and also put it in the trade section too.

I have one chap that wants to trade me a 74 Super (pretty much stock) and no rust other then battery area.

And now i have another chap that has a 73 standard with no rust, narrowed 2" adjustable beam, crossdrilled rotors, cb drop spindles, genuine porsche 2
liters, excellent condition. the engine is a stock 1600 with weber 34
ict's the tin is powdercoated black and the car has a new interior.

I really wanted to get a Late Model Super this time around, but after considering everything this standard car has it would really make my life easy to make it a GL. I have so much money going into my other beetle at the moment, that I have no extra to build a GL and this car would only need a few minor things to get me there.

Heres a pic.....

I have to say the Standard is looking good!

But if you really want a late super it is better to get what you want and slowly work it up. The super does look clean, just much too stock!

I'd have to agree with Adrian,

The 73 looks a bit Cal look to me,
Start with a blank canvas... go for the Super

:agree: I believe the Super's the better candidate for a GL.

Considering how clean your Fastback is, you could negotiate for a few $$$, plus the Super as trade for your car.

I'm with Adrian and Rob, the Standard is a bit more Cal-look than German look in the picture, but still a nice car.

I would agree as well, its better to start with a blank canvas, even if it takes a while to finish.

And you really want one, so why not?
