@All
I have the pleasure of being the former owner of the now horrible black & red "riced" 1958 VW Beetle a few pages ago posted by Shahzeb.
It's really, really sad that the car has gotten to be the state it's in. I owned the car between 2001 and 2004.
It's a real rarity - how many 58 Beetles do you see around? Answer, none. Probably the oldest running/driving VW in the twin cities. It's even rarer given it's a standard model (type 111 - LHD).
Yes, I know it now needs a sh** load of work, but at 53 years of age, so would you probably, after a lifetime of plowing on PK roads.
Please save this car from the current young punk owner. He doesn't deserve this rarity. I was after this car for months, but now that I have my '63, I can't have another at the moment.
