Karen:

   Frank was at the meeting last night and said his blue convertible is definitly for sale.

  I believe, he also said that he just got in a Super Beetle with a good engine that would go with the car. He was using Jay's engine (till it went boom).

   This is a incredibly nice car and has won its share of trophys.

  Worth taking a look at.

Karen, to clear up the confusion. Frank was using Jays motor in his convertible. He recently purchased a low mileage Super and is installing that car's motor into his convertible. He had to return Jesters motor either way, so this was a planned swap-before-the-sale. (Blowing up Jays motor was unplanned  ?/banghea?/ )

Sounds horribly scary, but we can change motors in a beetle in about 2 hours. It's literally 4 bolts, 2 cables and 4 electrical wires.

It's not uncommon to keep a spare engine like one might keep spare parts. It's not complicated


BTW Ever think about a Baja Bug?  whistleegi

Shawn, thanks for straightening that out for me.  Do I get the extra body as a freebie?  LOL   JKgif 

It's amazing to me that you all can swap motors like that.  You make it sound so simple,  but I know it's not all THAT simple. 

No I never did think about a Baja Bug... although my 8 yr old would think I was the coolest mom EVER if I bought one.  He went to the BBBBB with me specifically to see Bajas!!  So, for his vote, that and campers won out over a convertible like mom wants...  __rolleye_      <kids>  lol

hello everyone, my blue beetle is for sale, all the work has been done, new top interior etc, the motor that is going in the car starts up better than any newer car that i have seen, and i am serious about that last statement, it almost starts by just pulling your keys out of your pocket, it starts o the first click and i say first cllick cause that is what it really takes to start it, as far as the spare beetle body, it does not have a title so i am going to part it out at punchbuggy and half the proceeds will be going to the club, so if any one needs some clean parts for a 72 super this will be your chance. as far as my blue car, it can be sold with the wheels or without also the music system can abe pulled to make the car a bit more affordable, i have a set of brand new tires on factory rims with hubcaps i can install on her if someone wants to buy it that way, either way its a nice car i am not a happy camper about the sale but cash is king nowadays. besides i can always fixup a type 3 fasty and have onother vw on the road soon, well let me know thanks.

Frank, how much would the wheel and/or tire deletion save?

OMG! Yucell! Such language!...  #@rofl3


Karen, Franks rims are Porsche wheels, made by Fuch.



The factory paint is removed and the wheels are then polished



Very desirable...and expensive to buy. (unless they're already on the car!)

I know, I was thinking the same thing.  They're gorgeous, and really make the car.  I know how expensive good rims are.. a family member bought Foose rims for a Tbird and they're stunning, but they were thousands.   

OH and did I mention that I don't know how to drive a stick    /help.gif.,/, but it's always been my dream to own a bug because of some nostalgic memories in my life.   So... there's that issue to contend with.. lol
