The last Bug is just 22 years old. The early ones are valuable but post 50s not so much in the whole scheme of auto collecting. Even after the Bug died the plant in Brazil continued turning out complete running/driveable pans for their kit car industry. When Beck moved his Porsche Spyder production there he was buying the pans for the components. He'd ship the completed cars back to the US. He'd pull the engines and take the front spindles off so they came as kits not complete cars.
