Vehicle Detail
1977 VW Super Beetle Convertible Champagne Edition In 1977 and 1978 VW issued one Champagne Edition Convertible to each dealership also known as a "Special US Sales Campaign" model 723. This was essentially a "Triple White" convertible but used a sand colored convertible top and had a set of four gold stripes running along the bottom of the doors and quarter panels. The 1977 model had faux burled elm inserts and the 1978 had faux rosewood dash inserts. Both had opal colored ribbon weave seat and smooth door panel coverings. Approximately 1000 total triple white S723 convertibles were sold in the US. My father purchased this car about ten years ago at a Goodwill Auction in Richmond Virginia. It had come from the Sausalito CA area by the sticker on the rear bumper and is in amazing shape. It is a California car having catalytic converter. This car is in excellent condition. My father installed a new top, seats and door panels. Still has the original boot. This car has only 45,000 miles which is amazing. This special model also ca,e with the original sport wheels. It still has the original radio as well. He has gone through the engine with new cylinder heads (have old ones in a box) new mahle Pistons, rings and pins, new connecting rod bearings and all new gaskets. Rebuilt alternator and starter. Air flow meter has been recalibrated. Interior wise besides mentioned earlier has new rear side panels, seat upholstery front and rear floor mats are original rubber. All window rubbers have been changed as has front and rear heated glass gaskets. I can go on and on but it was a labor of love for my father. It could use a new dash pad and if I found one I would change it for you. It could use new running boards but they are functional just not perfect. Had one floor rust panel installed but not a rusty car at all as you can see from the floor pan pic. One small tear and passenger head rest. Original paint. Mileage is definitely correct even though exempt when cars get over 15 years old. I have all the original parts that came off this car as we;;. The cylinder head that was replaced original door panels. Car has the original boot in very good condition. I am installing new running boards as soon as they come in. Just in time for summer. Miles are correct title showing 28,845 when purchased back in 2004. feel free to ask me anything else about this car. Have all the original reciepts and list of what has been done to bring this car to current condition.
