Well my vw square back needs a new sunroof so i'm selling my rc10 runner resto, i bought it in dismay but the gold pan was really nice so Ive been buying nos parts slowly to make it an all original shelved runner. It has nos front arms, and sway bar kit, shocks have been completely rebuilt with new oil, The front shocks have nos chrome springs. The pan has only a couple of scratches, the front plate has a little more but its in amazing shape.

i tried to accurately show the white parts, for this car to be absolutely beautiful, all you need is the rear arms and trans case cause they are discolored. Everything else is great shape, and white. I painted the body myself and its nice, only has 1 defect on the side where i put a white space to put a sticker, the tape didn't stay down and the line is a little jibbed.

I'm broke as a joke and i wouldn't sell it but my Volkswagen is more important. 125 shipped, thanks Josh

edit - was on TC, not ebay

Paul

it wont ever be on ebay, i bought the tranny case and all new internals so ill just keep her, i got my volkswagen situation worked out, thanks Josh

I wonder how many times the average v-dubber has had to say this?
I've had a check engine light on for 2 weeks now, hopefully I'll be saying the above on tuesday morning.

My wife's has been on for over 2 years now on her Beetle. We have never had a problem.

my girlfriends 04 Beetle check engine light has been on since about 04. my 67 bug doesn't have one but if it did, it would be on too.

67 Bug was the best year they ever made lots of power a very nice car. I had one among many vdub's and it was my all time favorite. Memories.

and it got cool reverse lights! i don't drive it anymore but i wish i did.

i dont have to worry about a check engine light, my daily driver is a 68 squareback, i also have a 73 thing but it doesnt run

is 67 the one year only bug or was it 68? I had a sunroof bug when I was 15 I was restoring. I can't remember what year it was, but it was the one year only bug and body parts were so hard to find and expensive I sold it. It was ok cause I got my 66 fasty pretty soon afterward... wish I still had it

yeah, the '67 was somewhat unique. it's closer to a '66 than a '68. there were some changes like the upright headlights, skinny trim, reverse lights etc. then in '68 they changed a lot.. for the worse imo. bigger tail lights, big bumpers, gas flap (no more lifting the hood!), big turn signals on the fenders etc.

thats cool I really like the squair and fast backs theirs never been very many of those were I live I think I have ever seen 1 in person an I really liked them

We have two VWs in the fam, one 2002 and one 59 (both my wife's), but the Fastback is MY ABSOLUTE FAV!....... followed closely by the Safari.

I had a 70 convertible beetle that was '16yearoldized'...twice before I bought it from my neighbor a long time ago. Front end was smashed and the rust had taken over...again(was a michigan car) and I let it go for 3 times what I paid for it. Wished I had stayed broke .
