Right Hand Drive Pennsylvania Titled VW Polo

As part of my purchase of the inventory of eCode Parts I acquired this gem. Its a running and driving 1977 VW Polo. It is rumored to be 1 of 4 in the country. I know of one in Pennsylvania, 1 in Virginia and another somewhere in New England.

I've had this car parked for the last few years, but it still fires up the first time, every time. (it probably has something to do with the fact that there are only 59 thousand original miles on it)

One thing in particular that makes this car stand out is that it has the original early small metal bumpers which are quite rare. I also have a spare late style plastic bumper set along with the matching grill.

The exterior was resprayed about 4-5 years ago in its original Miami Blue, however the car sat to long in its primered state and has developed some paint bubbles.

The interior of this car is its worst quality as I believe the car sat in a glass front garage for many years, which would explain the lack of rust on the car but the overall condition of the bench and front buckets.

The dash and steering wheel are in great shape along with the door panels.
The only aftermarket modification to this car is the sliding ragtop, which I don't really understand myself. I'll most likely replace the sliding unit with a vinyl snap in place top.

I'm open for trades of all sort on this car, but cash works as well. Ideally if I include all the spare parts I have for this car I would like $6500.00, so a trade in that ballpark would work to.

I am located in Frederick, MD about 45 minutes North of Washington, DC and 45 minutes West of Baltimore.
