1956 horizon blue vw beetle

Vehicle Details

Selling my 56 beetle. Numbers matching. Have owned it for about 6/7 years. I�ve mostly stripped it down to original paint of horizon blue. Worst rust is driver heater channel and little bit of floor pan at the channel. Nothing that needs to be addressed now. I wanted to just enjoy it as is first before diving into any metal repair. Passenger side is solid. Full set of 5 og paint wheels (4 need to be stripped still) It comes with 2 sets of fenders, the ones in primer. And I also sourced the rough original paint horizon blue fronts. Has original horizon blue tail lights as well. Recently sourced a 36 hp from within 1 month of production of the car. I�ve installed that and it runs. New optima battery. New plugs/wires. Rebuilt fuel pump/carb. I�ve purchase all new brake hardware, hard/soft lines, master cylinder and reservoir. So far I�ve rebuilt all 4 wheels brakes and in the rear new wheel bearings and axle seal kits. New axle boots, fresh gear oil in the split case. New clutch kit installed. I have yet to install the lines and reservoir and master cylinder. I�ve purchased all new fuel lines, fuel tank, petcock, and all misc parts. I�ve installed a new hard fuel line through the tunnel and in the engine bay. I have not installed the tank. I have receipts for all the parts and the engine I purchased. I was planning to have the car running and driving this summer, but I have since bought a boat for the family and plans have fizzled out. Most of you could have this driving in a weekend. All in all I�m looking for 10k for the car. Thanks
