How to go about selling my '65 VW Beetle?
My 1965 1,300cc Volkswagen Beetle (one of first six months of the 1300 version and so has six-volt electrics, purchased from the local Volkswagen agent as their demo model when six months old, so I am the only owner) was last on the road in 1978, driven only in and out of my garage in order to use the pit over which it is parked and was to be my retirement hobby. It is to be sold.
Lifetime mileage is 41,500 and apart from needing a brake overhaul, it could easily be put back on the road, though the original paint work looks a little ‘tired’ – it is Volkswagen sea-blue. Any idea what I could expect to get for it? And how I should go about selling it?
It is standard except for a fitted tow-bar; also, has bespoke leather seat covers made just after purchase in 1965.
