Sad but true. Anyway, this is my first time selling a car. I would appreciate any hints and tips, and no, I don't plan on selling it to someone who won't take care of her. That's why I'm posting here...I want to know where I can advertise the car to people who are aircooled enthusiasts. Obviously here, but where else? Ebay? Autotrader? How to do it locally?
It's a '73 std. Beetle. Recently replaced shocks, steering box, tie rod ends (inner and outer). Front disc brakes, Porsche 914 rims with
185 and 205 rubber front and rear, respectively. Strong 1600 engine was rebuilt 14K miles ago. All cooling tin present. Front and rear 3/4" sway bars. This car handles VERY well, it's a lot of fun on curvy roads. Custom center console, two homemade varnished maple dash inserts, one with small VDO tach. Tach doesn't read correctly, I don't think it likes the points ignition. Electric windshield washer pump with toggle switch operation. Car is solid, minor rust. Pans are solid, some surface rust under floormats. Rust around front fenders and on front of car. New rear fenders, they don't match the rest of the color of the car (yellow). Overall, the exterior condition of the car is not too great. The mechanical condition, however, is excellent. Oil changed and valves adjusted every 2k. Oil used is consistently Castrol 20W-50. I'm sure I've forgotten something, but I will post if I remember. The car is located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. If anyone here is interested please email me at ant9 9 8 3 @ yahoo.com (remove spaces).Thanks for any other tips as well.
