Hi,
Was surfing the net around a month ago and came across a bright orange RHD 1973 type 3 with air ride suspension etc for sale, think it may have been on the samba but cant find it now, there was a skeleton in the passenger seat in one of the photos if you saw it, ws a lovely looking machine does anyone have any information about it ? know who owns it or if it is still for sale or been sold ??
thanks |

And the reason you're having a hard time finding it is because the seller has repeatedly deleted his ad and reposted a 'new' one with a different price/photos. |

Please report these when you see people doing this and I will "reset" things and notify them to stop.
In this case it looks like he has posted it multiple times but usually 1-2 month apart so he may have been changing his mind back and forth.
Not as bad as the jerks who repost the same car every few days.
The prices have varied by thousands up and down as you mentioned. _________________ How to Post Photos

I dunno - I've ridden in a ragtop square and it was fine. I drove my friends targa fastback and it was fine
that motor, on the other hand, looks like trouble ready to happen _________________ Stop dead photo links! Post your photos to The Samba Gallery! |

Maybe due to the '73-era bright orange color? |
