Don’t think my wife will make it – if she does she will be coming up for just one day -Saturday.

Actually built off a VW bus type 111
 

Richard:
Boot cover goes from back of the seats rearward and will cover the top went it’s down.  I think you are thinking of a tonneau top

  Ed, I’ve been watching that one too.  I’m taking it as a sign of better days ahead. It was a very nice TD.

 Geeeee wish i had a lot more cash, I got it –I’ll get my wife to get a second job – – – – – “ her answer”    Dan

$6777. Wow.

$6777! 28 bids. For a TD VW. Trend or fluke?

Wobby, I’ll pass on the Nash, actually wife convinced me to pass on the other one too… That Bugatti is really cool though.  But like you say I dont need it either.    

Ed,
Over 6,000.00 now and moving up although the black one is only 2400.00 with 4 hours to go. Just goes without saying – make sure your car is detailed to the max
