Snowman's 63' Bug
Have to sell as need the money for my Split Single Cab project.
This is one cool looking bug, every time I go out people can't help but have a look, interior is in good condition, it drives well and sounds awesome. There are no holes or unwanted rust, it just passed its MOT (September 14th) so there are no problems with this car. Engine had a top end rebuild in July 2009, read below for more info.
