My dads friend has finally decided to MOT this and stick it on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170395410744
Had a little ride out in it yesterday. sounds nice (flat 4 air cooled engine) and rides quite well. Its solid underneath, just needs a respray really. He's seen one of these sell for £30,000 totally mint. He thinks about 500 were imported to europe, of which 50 came to uk.
looks crap in the pictures, with the layer of dust. Some better pics...

the fact it has been resprayed and not in its correct colour will severely lower how much it is worth.

Buy it Tom, then we can have the joy of working on another old VW 
But then I think this one is nicer than the camper so it would be worth a few late nights...
