Any Other Relevant Info:
1974 1303S that I got last year. It's been great but I know it's not my favorite VW. A new lack of space some cash problems the fact that I can do nothing meaningful to maintain it myself means that I've decided to part with it. I've spent a bit on it since I've had iit and there's tons of good bit but the bad bits are as follows;
Needs headliner
Rust on front valance (repairable I believable)
Rusty tail pipes
Bump on drivers quarter panel
Needs drivers running board refitted/ replaced
Needs pass side rear wing ideally
4" gouge on drivers front wing (barely visible in pics)
Needs radio
*Needs Wiper motor
*Blowing bulbs and fuses for tail lamps and wiper motor.
Tail lamps need replacing
Hesitation in engine under light acceleration (though I have it on good authority that it'll run 100% on a new carb)
Solid and respectable otherwise- suspension and steering was given a clean bill of health recently...
€2,500 ono
