[tcb] Re: samba 60

Well that was joking my comment.  It's worth what someone will pay for it.

Hey, let's face it.  If enough of those foolios watch Barrett Jackson enough 
then there will be a new source of moola in the VW hobby that isn't based on 
Euros.

Maybe I'll sell out now while the market is high...

1 million for a 59 23 window.  Once sneezed on by Carroll Melby and once 
transported Pamela Henderson to get her hair done.  If you even look closely 
you'll see a reflection of Elvis in the paint...
.
It even has a rare Beetles White album CD.  Let's start the bidding now!

Yeah Will; I would love to have it as a twin for my panel; after I replaced the 
hatch of course 
But I wouldn't pay $43,000 for it

Just drive it and enjoy it. It's hard enough nowadays to find an early bus that 
hasn't been exported or rustier than crap, or the wheel aprons cut for Jackmans.


Yeah, lots of questionables but whoever buys it will enjoy it.

I personally would be more surprised that there is some (hopefully) naive 
misrepresentation, and that these incorrect examples somehow were not placed on 
this particular Bus by VW. What would high hinge doors be doing on a '61 anyway?

Peter you've got good eyes.  I didn't even notice the coat hooks.  My sources 
also indicate that the hatch is only correct for 61/63, not 60.  Can't be a 
late 60 because they quit putting the bastard engines in before the model year 
was over,or it's a late 60 with the wrong engine.  Also, it has an incorrect 
fuse panel for a 60.  They didn't use that fuse panel till either late 60 or 
61.  I really think what the guy has is a 61 and he thinks it is a 60.  But 
then that doesn't explain the engine.  Could it be that it ain't that original 
after all?

what I know. If the Bus is a very late '60 model, it could be that they ran out 
of the early hatches early though. I also wonder what those coat hooks are 
doing in a Kombi.
My $0.02,

Peter: 
Or any other expert, doesn't this bus have the wrong rear hatch for a 60?
