imported vws

[strongy]

now im all up for importing nice rust free busses but whats hapend to the import of beetles??ive been looking round for a shell at the mo and probably 95% of the importers dont even bother with bringing beetles in.now im sure its due to the fact theres not as much money in them. but i just think its a shame.

what do you think?

oh and if you know of a place i get get hold of a shell dont keep it to yourself :mrgreen:

I was thinking about this not long ago, i realy want a 1303 (first car, dont ask) i guess if you asked an importer they would get you one as long as you pay them.

what you thinkng of?

That's exactly it, especially if your looking for a post 67 shell when you consider that the shipping cost for it would be four figures.
So that's why the boss only bothers bringing over solid, spot on early bugs.
