Vehicle Detail

derkaferhaus Store This car gets attention wherever it goes! Brand new paint job and fresh rubber all around. New headliner, door panels, and carpet. Velour seats are an older set that is in decent driver shape, and the stay-fast canvas top has been on the car for a couple years and shows minimal wear. Powder coated smoothie rims with original VW hubcaps and new beauty rings. Beam has been narrowed 4 ¼”, new shocks all around. There isn’t any body modification to fit the beam. New brakes, master cylinder, rubber lines, and reservoir. New bumpers, headlight assemblies, chrome. 1600cc dual port engine was rebuilt by Painter’s Grinding a few years back. The engine runs great and gives a little more power then the stock 1200cc. The car has been converted to 12 volt. 009 distributor, Bosch Blue coil, rebuilt carburetor. 145r15 tire up front are 80% and the 165r15 tires in the rear are about the same with lots of life left all around. I have been getting 30mpg around town, and drive the car daily unless there is bad weather. Everything works fine mechanically as well as electrically, but there isn’t a horn. This car is low, but it doesn’t grind or rub going down the road. The beam is adjustable and can go lower, but it’s set at good height where it won’t damage itself in the process of driving. If you want, I can raise the car back to stock for an additional $500. Everything would be swapped back on to a solid, straight stock beam, and the rear would be set back to factory settings. If you have questions, please feel free to ask before you bid.
