Hello Again,
I promise i was not looking for another bug but during a site visit in Ermelo i saw this in the front garden. Ask the owner about the bug and he practically gave me the car. Enjoy and cheers. Vintage.
God i need storage urgently..............................

Re: 61 Bug - Donor Car
I am starting to dislike you!
Congrats, nice FREE find. Now find me a 51 split window, that should make up for it.

Re: 61 Bug - Donor Car
The Bug was in a little accident on the drivers door an front fender. R these doors freely available.
Also noticed that no semaphores? Do the tail lights also act as indicators. Cheers. Vintage.

You're looking for a door 59-64. Not freely available but not impossible to find.vintage wrote:The Bug was in a little accident on the drivers door an front fender. R these doors freely available.

Yes, the brake lights flash for indicators.

Fig, aren't the rear lights from a earlier beetle? Drivers door available at volksiewrorld in cape town, I know because I took the quarterlight for Bobbie.

Re: 61 Bug - Donor Car
I wondered that myself; I thought those lights only went up to the 60 model year, but they may have continued into 61.

Re: 61 Bug - Donor Car
There was a model that worked the same as the kombi the American way. About 60/61 model.
