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

Based in Cork.

Not for me thanks, Jimbow. A trade for something interesting isn't out of the question but it would have to be similar value or less...
