1973 VW beetle, I have owned and driven this car everyday from 06/11 - 4/13 when the engine had a bearing issue and I removed it. This car really meant a lot to me and I have kept strict maintenance on it until 06/13. I really enjoyed this car while I was a student and traveling nurse assistant, now that I have a new job I just can't take the time to maintain this appropriately. I want to sell it to someone that will take care of it, I am going to be completely honest about it's condition. , please feel free to call me Noah Swift 717-273-1743 or e-mail at lebnoah@gmail.com. ----------------Pro's--------------- Minimal Rust Dash has no sun damage Both drive shafts replaced last year Totally replaced ignition switch and signal wiring in steering column Up to PA inspection standards on 5/13 No braking leaks or issues No issues with gas tank, rubber gas hose replaced recently (gas gauge float does not work sometimes) No stripped bolts on body or on trans-engine mount (transmission rubber boots intact, replaced last year) No electrical issues Shocks appear stock but I have had no issues with them. Four brand new Touring tires with professionally painted rim I put the transmission in myself in 2012, it was used, I bought it from a guy that was piecing a beetle in his shed for 600$. It does not slip, pop, or grind and the trans fluid is clear red with no burnt odor. I have crawled under it every summer and sanded off any rust,then painted with about 4 coats of Rustoleum. Besides under the battery, there is no floorboard rusting. I did this with the fenders as well. Left rear fender has some rust thru (photo) There are 2 stock seatbelts in the front with shoulder sttap, and I have installed 2 stock seatbelts in the rear. New Cards on doors and rear. The seats are used but reconditioned with 2 tears (photos) Headliner has no holes or sag, it is original. -------------Con's---------------- There is NO ENGINE, it does come with a new Sachs Clutch (photo) The steering shakes and should be restored, I am including a lot of the items needed for this (photo). If you are going to take the time to dissmantle the steering system this far I would recommend changing the steering box while you are up there, they cost about $100.00. Window rubber and body rubber between fenders needs replaced., Front and Rear window rubber is like new. Trunk and hood need re-aligned to open and shut correctly, all of the hardware is attached, it just needs reset. Minor dents and minor rust (photos) Speedometer cable is attached but nod placed into wheel.. speedometer does work. Rear Light is cracked and will need replaced. T-Bars (bumper bars) are not tightened down thoroughly, you will have to buy bolts from hardware store. The assembly or opening and closing heater-vent is not there, you will need to buy these assemblies, I was holding open the vent with twist ties all winter then removing them in spring. There is no radio, but it is ready to be connected to one and the speakers in both doors are new and do work. You will need to buy some flashing for e.j. the hood and the panel under the doors. The wipers work, I could never figure out how the wiper spray system works with the spare tire, but the assembly for this connection is there. There is a rubber seal in the engine compartment essential for proper engine use.. you will need to replace this rubber seal. --------------Included!!!!--------------- Brand new Sachs Clutch Set 1 year old Bosch Starter Electronic heater blower Spare Tire Two Rollers, Two tie rod ends, and new set of polyurethane replacement bushings.
