Oh cool, it's a '73 bug that was on sale at the corner gas station for $800.
Test drove it and the seller talked himself down to $400 before I shut him up and bought it.
It ran but not all that great so I put in a new 1914cc SCAT motor...BIG FUN!
The master cylinder eventually went out so I got another one in 2020 along with all the parts to rebuild the brakes on all 4 corners but I then came down with a serious case of retirement syndrome and it has been sitting ever since. 😴
