"The car is mechanically sound and has a well-protected bottom plate. The body has been renovated over the years, and there is rust in the wings, but nothing that is dangerous to drive with. If the car is to be truly nice, the wings should be repaired or replaced and a fresh repaint.The car has driven 148368 kilometers."

Description

Rakel Eriksson purchased this car in 1971 from his brother, a VW salesman, and has owned it ever since. Rakel was a Brigadier in the Salvation Army and lived in several locations throughout Sweden during her duties. She maintained the car to the best of her ability, and because she generally traveled alone, the interior is in good shape with only minor wear and tear.
Following her death, a relative took over the car and treated the base plate and sprayed oil into all cavities. Following that, the car was used infrequently over the summer and was subjected to regular mechanical maintenance. If you want the car to look its best, the wings should be replaced, followed by a fresh coat of paint.
Because the current owner no longer has space, he wishes for another VW enthusiast to take on the upkeep of this car.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
