Vehicle Detail

The words in red were added AFTER (5-2) the original posting(5-1) which is in black Update, it took this out and drove it first time after winter (for videos) I drove it all over town, I've never had a problem with it nor any driving it around town yesterday. After driving around I left it out in the yard, today I went to pull it back in garage, it backed up 4 feet and stopped, then I pulled forward 4 feet and it stopped. I don't know what problem is (something in ring gear? Ive never owned a VW maybe some other common problem) either way i'm an honest seller and would not want to sell it knowing there might be an issue. I'm $3500 into this going to cut my losses now and put a buy it now for $1850 figure the cut can fix problem or get you a different trans. Also with the Baja I just bought, it comes with an extra trans, not sure if it is good or not (will find out today 5-2-11) if its good I can give the trans to you. Sorry extra trans was IRS one. Havin a toy sale. I am selling my VW sand rail with T-trailer. I bought it end of last summer, I was wanting a Baja bug but found this and bought it, last Friday I bought the more family friendly 69 Baja so wife says clean up the toy box.......The man I bought it from told me1641cc dual portRebuilt swingarm trans ( he said the good one so I assume bus trans, please look at the pictures I will add, you may be able to identify trans)I kept the mail order companies in business over the fall, most parts installed, rest come with it.New front/rear rimsNew front/rear tires 31x10 rear stock vw type front4 point harness both sidesNew high back seats and coversNew starterNew headlightsCleaned up wire harness and added fusesComes withBox of parts from previous ownerClutchshifterneal brakeelec partsfew mirrorshornsmiscFront and rear sand tires mounted on rimsSome stock vw seats if you want them Parts I haven't installedRear empi shocksDual exhaust setupchrome tie rodsdampenerbox of misc gaskets, steering partscomplete brazil reman front axle.I added pictures of parts that come with, I forgot to put shocks in picture, they are just like the ones on buggy except new in box It is street legal and will post videos of driving it today, currently plated road ready titled as 75 vw, I WOULD AT LEAST REPLACE THE INCLUDED TIE RODS BEFORE SERIOUS ROAD TRAVEL. I went a little over board buying parts and bought the axle,bearings,tie rods etc etc Just the short left side tie rod is real sloppy, but figured mine as well replace it all. The t-trailer is listed as included part because it is a Michigan modified boat trailer which I guess are not titled in Michigan has lights,hold down straps,new wheel bearings. Previous owner had dune buggy out in silver lake dunes last summer has 2010 sticker on it, seems last time it had sticker was 2003, so I am assuming it sat for awhile then someone got it back out. With the included parts, take them all, take some do as you wish with them, install them or sell. No reserve, starting price is well below what I paid for it then I purchased all those parts. $200 deposit via paypal at auction end, balance preferably cash on pickup, if you plan anything other then cash on pick up contact me before you bid, will not refund deposit.
