My name is Dennis, need help finding car

Hi,
My name is Dennis and I am from the Jersey Shore, NJ area. Back in the day I owned 6 Volkeswagen beetles from 1959 to 1972. My bucket list tells me it is time to get another one but I am having difficulty finding one that is road worthy, can be driven everyday, had no major problems and will pass NJDMV inspection.
I don't have a lot of money to spend and I have look at some old bugs that I have found at Black Tie Classics but there is something about them that I just don't trust.....can't put my finger on it and of course it is just speculation, I could be wrong.
So if you know of anyone who could help me find something worthy of the Volkswagen name I would appreciate it if you could get back to me.
Thank you in advance,
Sincerely,
Dennis Santaita   mrdsinc@aol.com

Hello Dennis,
Have you tried the Samba? Link: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/
Good luck with your search.

Karen is right, the samba is a great spot to look,  I live near Black Tie Classics  and got the same vibe when I went in to talk to them a while ago...


Good Luck!!!

 Someone should direct Dennis to that nice Blue 1972 Super that is for sale out front of Shawns house before it's gone. It may appear a little higher priced then he thinks he wants to pay. But we all know you get what you pay for and either pay little upfront only to spend your money and time more then twice and still never have as nice as a car as Shawns that you could just get in and go...
 It's a no Brainer for a nice daily driver. Geeze maybe I need another Super, now I'm stinking?  &$hmmthin_+
