My brother-in-law in Indiana just bought a VW Cabriolet convertible with 62K on it - it's an '85, I think or whatever the last year was they were made.
It actually did belong to an old man who rarely drove it - it's black with leather seats that had had lambskin seat covers so the leather is like new. The grandson is a mechanic for Catepillar so the car is in A-1 condition and was stored in a barn for years but started regularly.
Apparently the grandson and his wife had a dispute over storing the car and he sold it to keep her happy - for $500.
My brother-in-law is pretty happy about it - he used to mess around with Karmen Ghias and Porsches a lot, so this will be right up his alley. He says he's gonna drive it out to RI as soon as his vaca rolls around -
Nice deal, any way you slice it, I think -
