Another complete restored sandcast on eBay

[1941wld]

This is a restored bike. Restoration by Vic World. Sold by Vic World in 2007. There are several items on the bike that are not original sandcast such as the gas cap, the front brake hose and the exhaust pipe. Why would you replace one exhaust, maybe it was damaged in a drop. There is no way this bike is 41 years old and unrestored. It has no age to the plastic coatings on the levers. With a few part changes these items could be corrected.  Also the reserve has been lowered on the auction for anyone who wants to bid on it. Still a very nice bike with a great restoration done to it. Oh, by the way, I don't see a blue or red dot on the engine cases. Maybe Vic could add that finishing touch to his future restorations.

Merry Christmas to All!!!!!!!

Wow!  Up to $20,000 with 3 days left.

Sold for $25.101. When we see what other classic bikes cost theese days it still seems that sandcasts are very attractive.
Good luck for the new owner. I think he has got a very nice bike.

Hey Mark ...........................  Pay the man in the white hat, he's a winner. Great estimate indeed $26K  KP

Earlier VIN, original vs. restored, different time of year, all things that I think would have increased the price.  Still not a bad price but I'm guessing he probably payed closer to $30,000.  At least he got to own a VW for a while.  Buyer should be happy.  A member here maybe?

Has to be a scam.  Different seller with zero feedback.  Same thing happened on the VW $41,000 original.  I'll bet it gets pulled in the next day.

It's already pulled.
