Vehicle Description

This street legal 1964 Volkswagen dune buggy is the Deserter GT style (only 410 made), and has it's Autodynamics decal. It is the classic Deserter orange color, but doesn't look like it's the original paint(can see red in some areas). The odometer only has 4 digits, so the reading is 8477, but I'm not going to guess at what that truly is. In the time it's been in my care it's been driven short distances (less than 4 miles) a few times a month. Car frame and body are from 1964, but the engine, and lights have been converted to a 12V system (1972 I believe). Have driven at speed up to 60mph, but haven't pushed it further.

I've owned it since 2013, and have replaced the following(fairly in order):
-fiberglass seats
-seat covers
-new battery
-flexible fuel line
-spark plugs
-flywheel
-starter
-gas pump
-generator
-new shocks
-gas pedal
-gas line
-break fluid resevoir
-break master cylinder
-shifter (purchased, but not installed) I'll give it to the buyer of this car

Please look at all photos carefully. There are some cracks in the fiberglass, and as this car is old, it requires someone who is willing to put in some time on it. The electrical system could use attention, and there is an oil leak through the bell housing. When the flywheel was changed it was noted that the oil came from the engine, so I'm guessing that the engine should be rebuilt. I'm not a mechanic, so I can't give any expert advice.
Looking to get $3995 for it, but will consider other reasonable offers.
