He deleted the photo where you could see at least one seam was split

Maybe there's an extra zero in there? Smile


It's for front and rear seats, and they looked to be in good original shape to me - but I didn't see the split seam. It looks like the price has been lowered to $1200.

If they’re the ones I’m thinking of, they aren’t even original pigalle covers. I was arguing with a guy on Facebook who was selling them. I showed him pictures of a super low mile car so he could see what original pigalle seat covers looked like, and he still argued with me saying his were original.

1959 VW Price: 9000

"It has a lot of rust."

TOTAL turd. $2k car at best...better yet, drop a zero from that price Rolling Eyes

Insane price but that paint looks like it will clean up super nice.

They should have done that first.. it would still be too much though

Edited: I originally said "That's not the correct steering wheel for a '65, that's a 60-63, that's strange."

After looking closely, I just realized it's just the wrong horn ring.

$2,700 for a good starter project with room to knock it down another few hundred, maybe.

Will obviously need apron/well work, but the rest does look dry and straight. I'd pick this all day over something with fully-distributed rust. This is very appealing against the backdrop of so many other higher-priced turds out there.

This ad and user are old but I think this might be a scam ad.

It's been up for 2.5 years with 50+ ad contacts and hasn't sold? BS!

I deleted it - let's see if they ask me why.

$15K? No way, not with this hideous hack.

https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=2686775

"...it looks so clean with out the big bundle of cloth from the convertible top." Oh please, that's like the sexiest part of the convertible Rolling Eyes And L398 is Pacific, not "light blue"
