I guess I didn't learn my lesson. Many thanks to Freightshaker (Jerry) for digging this one out of a barn for me. This one is going to be a little bit different when all is said and done. ;-)

Not yet - but it will be.

You lucky Dog! That thing has so much potential!

I'll give ya fifty bucks for it Cory... :lol:

That's pretty much your standard offer on everything isn't it? And a perfectly fair offer this time. You might regret it, I might take you up on it after I get frustrated with it.

What a find! I have a tube chassis with IRS and ball joint already built for it.

by **CoryN** » 27 Wed Oct, 2010 7:39 am

Its a Kellison Super T. I've kinda been looking for a while for one, and now all of a sudden I'm seeing them all over. This one is a little rough, but it was really cheap, and I plan on some significant modifications that I might feel bad about doing to one in better condition.

Hawk - I'd be interested in hearing more about your chassis.

Sorry Faron - I thought about you as I was posting it, and felt bad cuz I know you've been looking for one. Just more evidence that they are out there waiting to be rescued.

Give me a call! I will sell it with or without front end and rear trailing arms.

by **CoryN** » 27 Wed Oct, 2010 4:59 pm

I don't have it home yet, let me make sure its all salvageable before I do anything.

I would like to see it.

by **CoryN** » 30 Sat Oct, 2010 8:24 am

I'll try to get up there and check it out for you

by **Faron** » 30 Sat Oct, 2010 9:36 am

I do a nightly search on www.thesamba.com and found this one. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/ ... id=1045934 I think I am going to pass on it as I really want a Typical Manx Style. I will be going to Alamogordo for work and visit family here in the near future. If the one you have does not work I will be happy to help you with this one if you like.
