I am trying to sell my VW bug! After all of these years of dependable services, I decided to get rid of one of the few things that works in my life. This thrilling adventure into human nature and car buying/selling is almost as good as going to Disney. Here are a couple of great examples, keep in mind that I am only asking $1000.00 for a 1966 bug.

Hello.
Hey man, I'm calling about the *6&#$ bug.
Pardon Me.
You know the @$% bug ...how fast can you get that baby up to?
Scuse me - it depends on what is towing it. Ha Ha
Don't laugh at me man, is it safe for a 18 year old?
Buddy, a tank is not safe for a 18 year old!
Hey man, I want to drive the ^&*thing, wheres you live man? Can I come tonight? (11:30pm)
I'm sorry I just decided not to sell......CLICK

Hello
Yes, I'm calling about the bug for sell in the paper, can you tell me about it.
Well, it was the Henderson data operations official vehicle for the last 5 years and I drove it 50 miles a day.
Yea, but is it dependable.
No, I just sometimes carried $30,000 worth of equipment up and down I-95 for the fun of it.
I want to get it for my mother to drive.
How old is your mother?
75
Well, maybe not!
Ring Ring!
Can I come over and test drive the bug?
Sure come on over.
(He did and proceeded to stomp the brakes right out of the car. Now I have to give it a break job)
After about trying to convince 50 people that they would be getting a good deal if they moved this thing out of my front yard, I decided that people and cars are two weird combinations. How fast can this BABY go? This BABY never went over 58 mph, and that was down hill with a tail wind. Anyway, I pulled the add from the paper. I'm thinking about keeping the car, fixing it up and making some money off of it. Offer to sell it for about $5000 and they'll all be there as collectors instead of hippies trying to recapture the 60's.
