Clear

You are bidding on a 1975 Super Beetle project car. I have had this car for about two years and have been restoring it for a nice weekend driver. Unfortunately I am forced to sell the car because I moved my elderly mother from the west coast and now have no time to complete the car. I have lots of experience with car restoration over the last 40 years so anyone that looks at the car won't be disappointed. The car is complete with the exception of the engine and the fuel tank. You will also need carpet as I was planning to change colors. The car was completely disassembled and the chassis had the floor pans replaced and a few small areas of rust repaired. The chassis was sand blasted, primed, and top coated on a rotisserie. All of the brakes were replaced including brake cylinders, master cylinder, brake pressure switches, drums on the back, and all new metal brake lines. The rear shocks were replaced and the front struts were replaced with Topline adjustable struts and a disc brake conversion. The front end is all new with an oversized sway bar, new tie rod ends, new ball joints, and a new rack and pinion boot. The transmission was sandblasted and repainted and the shifter bushings were replaced. The entire chassis is complete and spotless. The body had a few rust areas removed and new panels installed. Both heater channels have been repaired or replaced. The engine compartment structural pieces were replaced. All rust has been removed. The outside paint was finished from the previous owner and is in very good condition. I did repaint the door jams, engine bay, and trunk area. The inside of the fenders were prepared and painted and the fender beading was replaced. The front turn signals are new along with the rear flush mount lights. The hood, doors, and trunk lid are not installed but are in similar condition as the rest of the car. The wheels were sandblasted and four new tires were installed. The interior was redone by the original owner and is gray and complete with the exception of carpet. The dash is in very good condition with one small crack about 1.5 inches long, that has been repaired. The sun roof has a new seal and works. The doors seem to fit well in the body openings. The car is ready to wire and has the front lights, horn and brake pressure switch wired. The rear lights are also wired. The inside will need to be completed. I do have a nice modern fuse panel ready for installation. All parts used for the restoration were top quality and most from Germany or from NAPA. The car is located in Dover Delaware and can be towed or trailered. If you have any questions please let me know. Payment of $125 immediately after winning the bid is required. This is because Ebay will change my account on a successful bid ( even without the car actually being sold). If you win the bid, pay the $125( non refundable) and don't like the car when you come to pick it up, I will relist and will not leave any bad feedback. I am confident that anyone that understands classic beetles will appreciate the amount of work/money put into this car.
