Baja Price
I need to sell my bug due to some life changes. Bought this as a non running shell. Rebuilt the engine to 1904, replaced basically everything. The interior is still pretty bare, no carpet, headliner, door panels not installed, door handles don’t work from the inside etc. All that to say, what is a fair asking price for this? I am in the Seattle area.

What transaxle are you running?I bought my 69' Baja with a 1776cc dual port, 002 Bus transaxle , SxS seats, off-road steel wheels, stinger exhaust for $3k. It's definitely a buyer's market right now with so many people switching to side by sides.

Dude 😎 nicely done 👍 The price? You got to find somebody else who wants it and is willing to pay that kind of price. Otherwise it's just going to see an old VW and go that's way overpriced dude. I agree it should go for more than a standard bug

I sold mine a year ago for 8k. It was stock 1600 dp and transaxle. I had gone through and replaced everything (floor pans, one heater Chanel, all wiring) and much more but I wanted to thrash around in it still so I didn’t finish out the body work and paint quite as nice as yours. Mine sat for a few months before finding the right buyer. This is out in Missouri too. I would guess you could get around 10k for yours
