Vehicle Detail
I bought this beetle in the mid 90s when I was in high school. After purchasing it out of a field I had it painted orange and tossed in a motor and drove it through college. I parked the car in 2000 and neglected it for years. Last year I got into it again and decided to make it road worthy. It has a freshly rebuilt engine including new cylinders, pistons, cam, lifters, pushrods, oil pump with external spin on oil filter, clutch, fuel pump and probably a few more things I'm forgetting. I modified the front beam, narrowing it 4 inches and dropping it 4+ inches replacing the shock towers as well. It has Mitsubishi Eclipse seats and a sweet late 70s 911 steering wheel. It has brand new 145 front tires and slightly used 165 rear tires. Brakes have been gone through but seem a bit spongy, I'm including a nos master cylinder. The carb could use a little fine tuning, it's a bit janky as it comes down off the choke, extra carb also included. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for taking a look at my beetle.
