Woah nelly!
Brazil produced Beetles long after Germany, like 10 years or more.....Mexico too. There were likely more Beetles built and driven in South America than any other place on the planet.

Re: 1979 Cub Cadet International Purchase

Richard, Glad you found the site and I hope you continue to hang out. A 782 would have been built sometime in the early 80s. 1979 would have been a Quiet Line 1250,1450,1650 from what I remember(zip it Dag! :lol: ) My opinion is unless it is pristine 2,000 is top dollar.

Re: Shop heater

I keep the shop warm with a propane unit heater.
When I am out there I use a radiant construction heater.
Of course it helps that I work for an industrial gas company that also sells propane.
