Wanted - Sterling

[Baz]

Hi all, I'm looking for a sterling, the closer to the west coast the better. It's going to be part of scratch built project, so doesn't need to be running or even have an engine. I'd be fine with a complete body only.

What's out there?

Baz - I sent you Nic's email to contact. Otherwise, look through the usual suspects -the Facebook marketplace if you're on there, eBay and Craigslist. From time to time they'll show up on The Samba marketplace and other VW related pages.

Thank you Letterman7, I have sent him an email earlier and hope to hear back from him soon. I also reached out to unofun who has some, but they're all complete cars, I'm hoping I can just get a body before going down that route.

I've checked ebay, thesamba, and craigslist within a 1000 miles from Los Angeles. No joy yet! If shipping wasnt so expensive following the pandemic, I'd have just shipped my NOS shell over. I missed the boat on that one (no pun intended).

Finding just a shell might be a bit difficult. Parts cars are much easier

Parts cars are fine, if the shell is complete. I just want to avoid paying a premium for a turnkey car if the mechanicals are going to waste. I am really hopeful that Nic responds with some good news.
