Hi Thanet classics,

It's me again with the Minor convertible.

We really enjoyed chatting to as many folks as we could last night and seeing all your lovely classic cars.

It has been a lifelong dream of my girlfriend's to own a VW Beetle (she loves campers as well, but a Beetle is more affordable). Last night someone mentioned they know of a project Beetle for sale.

Lack of funds means this would have to be a project car, so we are on the lookout for a pre 73 Beetle, preferably as original and as complete as possible. ideally we would like one with reasonable running gear and a rusty body and as unmolested as possible. We can do all the welding and painting ourselves.

I.e. plenty of rust is OK but preferably not previously welded as chances are we would have to cut off any previous MOT patch stylee work and start again.

My girlfriend's favourite colour would be orange, but any original colour would do.

We are going to restore the car for her to drive as a daily driver and so will be keeping the spec close to standard.

We did speak to someone last night who knew of one for sale, but with so many new names and faces to get to know - not sure who said that, Embarassed Embarassed so please, if you know of a project Beetle for sale, preferably somewhere in Kent, please do let us know via this message board. We have been scouring Ebay and adverts etc but nothing suitable nearby has come up.

many thanks

regards

John, Lorraine, Aiden and Flynn
