Eric my Variant 422LE

Cool

 

Very cool. I wanted one to replace my passat but couldn't find one for sale at the time. Ended up with a T25 instead.

 

Not many of them knocking around, very nice

 

I've always fancied owning/restoring a 411/412

 

I've scrapped 3 of these beauties so I could keep the AN engines....

 

There only about 50 left, about 36 on the road,
My mate Wireless, pointed this one out, he has two,
One is his donor car, which he has a buyer for, when he had his pick of the bits,
Keep on scrapping them, mine will only go up in value, lol.
Great car, lovely drive for a air cooled,

 

in this country? plenty on the samba

 

Plenty on samba. 50+ registered in the UK I believe, rhd.

 

Most of them were cannibalize for there engines for campers,

 

very

Did you sell your beetle?

 

I love the 411/412's

 

No, I'm enjoying the fruits of my Labour, mot d last week and taxed.

 

Took a couple of goes getting through mot, mainly cause the mot guy said fuel lines were fouling, turned out it was the brake feed from the reservoir, and headlights we're a pain, put non halogen in, then ok ?'

 

Eric got an award at tatton.

 

To be fair they were all rotten and never going to be fixed but you have a good un there mate

 

One thing for sure an ideal camper engine, with out going down the subo link.
