Text Drive Sales:A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

“WOW!! This is my old car that I owned for 26 years and restored during that time. If the buyer wants to know any of the history, I can provide info for the period that I owned it. @IanC – When I sold it, I did include the Jaguar Heritage Certificate with it. Since I got it so long ago, it looks much different than the ones you get today. Hopefully, it’s still with the car. The colors are original – Opalescent Silver Blue with dark blue interior and top. I’ll be watching this one!”

“What a cherry looking little car! 1963 remains my favorite year for the Type 1 1200 Sedan and seeing one like this, in stock spec after years of well-loved ownership just makes me smile! Everyone has a VW Story and this VW has a great story all on it’s own.

I didn’t see anything mentioned about a “Birth Certificate” and, while it may be impossible to receive one before the end of the auction, this car deserves one. Per the technical data on TheSamba.com Chassis No. 5241720 would have rolled…”
