    1965 on samba for 125k...

    http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifie...php?id=1223414

    Curious about some of the details on this one? Rubber guards on rear, reference to Zeniths/now Webers, large key bezel with early #, steering wheel, ect...

    The ad says "finished in the factory original color of Polo Red", but paint code (6402) is for Ruby Red. So it's unclear if the car is in its 'proper' original color as the ad seems to say.

    There is a lot 'wrong' w/ this car. A detail like that the left side wood (on the dash) is the second (later) style.

    exactly... mixed identity makes me think it started out pre-resto missing a lot

    @deporsche74- would love to hear about any solid 301 car that's worth saving- I'm in search of a project and the earlier the better.

    Don't know of any four speed 911's, no Solex Carbs, appears no center lube cam lines, rubber shift boot not leather, no wood steering wheel, not sure, but should likely have four button dash and the six pleat seat inserts.... Later gas door knob, dash has several issues as mentioned....

    Seller is another Ass-wipe that knows nothing about these early SWB cars yet tries to scam the unwitting public with a $25-30k car because he saw one of the first 230 cars bring big bucks.
