Vehicle Detail
1967VolkswagenBeetle - Classic Bug This beauty was fully restored in 1999 by Clarke's VW Restoration in Ocala, FL. At the same time, a new 1600 engine was installed and it was fitted with a custom under-dash Air Conditioning unit. I was not the owner at the time, but have receipts showing over $9000 paid in '99 for this restoration. It has seen little road activity since then. I've owned it for 5 years (since October 2010) when I purchased it with 37,428 on the new engine. I have put less than 8,000 miles on it, for a total of just over 45,000 miles. To say it's a real head-turner is to be modest! Everyone seems to have a Beetle memory from their past, so it generates a lot of interest and conversation where ever we go. The engine runs strong, is peppy and can be used as a daily drive car if desired, or at least a weekend around-town car. Air conditioning has two fans speeds, rear-mounted fan and condenser mounted in front passenger wheel well. It needs to be recharged each summer for maximum performance, but blows strong, cools well, is not overly noisy, and looks like a factory install, not an after-market add-on. Recent maintenance includes new rear brake shoes, master cylinder, new fuel pump and rear adjustable shocks. Regular oil changes and valve adjustments have been performed and documented. Only hi octane (91) fuel used. Tires have some good tread remaining. It's not meticulous, show car quality, but close to it. Several minor issues worth noting include small paint chips interior and exterior (have been retouched), windshield washer not working, rear wheel white port-a-wall is scraped, heater lever doesn't stay in up position, driver side window has some faint scratches. This will give the new owner something to do! Restoration and original features include:Deep metallic blue paint on exterior and interior dash, door jams, throughout...Cream leather upholstery with light blue cloth insets, no rips or stains.Gray carpet and black rubber floor mats.Retro Sound AM/FM Radio, designed to fit the original dash trim.Radio includes iPhone jack and USB/SD Card bracket in glove box.Retractible seat belts.12v conversion.Rear deck mounted stereo speakers.Front console with cup holders. Back seat wire basket.Lots of exterior chrome trim includes mud guards, running boards and headlight 'eyelids'.Bumper chrome is high-quality, in excellent condition.Chrome half-moon hub caps.Great gas mileage!Owners manual and maintenance receipts included.Wide whitewall port-a-wall tire inserts Buyer is responsible for shipping costs, but I'll be happy to assist any way I can with the transport. I'll include a few extra trim parts (extra side mirror, chrome bumper guards, canvas wheel covers, bulbs, fuses, etc...). Reasonable reserve set, so bid to win one of the nicest Beetles still around.
