THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DETAILED!!! IT HAS BEEN WASHED, VACUUMED, AND WIPED DOWN WITH TURTLE WAX QUICK SHINE PRIOR TO BEING PHOTOGRAPHED. IMAGINE HOW AMAZING IT WILL LOOK WHEN YOU TAKE THE TIME TO DETAIL AT HOME! OVERVIEW If you follow my ads, you know that I am just about as big a fan of VW’s as I am of Classic Pickups! Over the years I have had the pleasure of owning over 30 VW’s, and a handful of awesome BAJA Bugs. This amazing little BAJA was purchased from the gentleman that created it, along with the help of one of the best VW shops in the Tampa, FL area. It is clean, mean, and ready for anything! Please take a moment to read the detailed listing, look over the 70 extra-large detailed photos, and then call me to make it yours before someone else does it first! THIS VEHICLE HAS A CLEAN AND CLEAR FLORIDA TITLE IN OUR POSSESSION, AND IS READY FOR SALE AND EXPORT WORLDWIDE. FOR VEHICLE FINANCING, APPLY ONLINE AT: WWW.JJBEST.COM WWW.LIGHTSTREAM.COM DESCRIPTION Not much to cover on this killer little BAJA BUG! The body is steel, with the exception of the fiberglass rear trim panel, hood, fenders, and roll. It is solid, clean, straight, and has nice gaps and panel fit too. Paint is a gorgeous blood red finish, and the prior owner left a can of touch with the color code mix on it in case you need it down the road. The paint is glossy, slick, and wet looking, and has only a few little blemishes from normal use and driving like stone chips and stuff. It reflects the surroundings like a mirror, and the glass components were properly blocked to make sure the paint on the whole car matched perfectly. Under the front and rear fenders, the body was treated to a Rhino-Liner type spray coating to protect it from rocks and debris, and keep it as waterproof as possible. The original looking floorpans are solid and clean, but do show dents, scratches, and marks from road debris. The edges and panel seams were all silicone channeled to make sure water/mud stayed out, and the car could be pressure washed clean with ease. Body was affixed to the chassis using all new GRADE 8 hardware throughout. The car has a front tube bumper, rear tubular cage, and tubular sprint bars on the side, all done in black. Rear cage has quad super-bright tail lamp/turn signals mounted on it, along with a lighted license plate bracket. A matching black roof rack was custom ordered for the car, is affixed properly, and is the perfect place for a spare tire or other goodies! Black sport mirrors work and look great, and are a nice contrast to the chrome door handles, front marker light covers, headlight trim rings, and bonnet t-handles. Window surrounds, weather stripping, door seals, and all the rest of the rubber on the car is in very good condition, and is fairly recent. The window scrapers/fuzzies are only a few months old, as are the regulators, so the windows glide up and down with ease. Glass is in exceptional condition all around. Wipers work as they should, and the windshield was also treated to RAIN-X to let water just bead off most of the time. The car rolls on 15” anthracite 8-spoke rims with a machined lip, and they all look great with only the faintest signs of normal use. Tires up front are a 195/65R15 PS830 with less than 1,500 miles on them, while the rear are a more aggressive BFGoodrich Baja Champion radial sized 235/75R15. They too have less than 1,500 miles since installation. Moonroof has been on the car for years, and according to the prior owner, it was sealed up years ago before the headliner and surround was installed. It is water tight, doesn’t leak at all, has clean glass, and is probably better as a panorama roof than a removable one! The majority of the chassis components were overhauled within the past 1,500 miles, so the beam, bushings, bearings, shocks, premium CV axles, boots, CV joints, link pins, spindles, etc. are all pretty new. Engine is a 1600cc unit that was redone from the block out to be a high-torque beast with room to breathe when you were on the highway too. The motor is super clean, and just covered in chrome, polished aluminum, or polished billet components. It starts, runs, and idles perfectly. It is ready go when you snick the close-ratio transmission into gear, and power is ready at any speed with the push of the throttle! It has a KILLER sound to it through the EMPI chrome exhaust, and you’ll find yourself winding out each gear just a bit more when you drive it just to hear that motor sing! It was built by a well-known VW shop in Tampa, FL that has been around for decades, and it was recently tuned up and is ready to roll anywhere you want to take it! Transmission shifts smoothly and surely into each gear, and it does NOT pop out of reverse like so many of them do! Shifting is easy, and the clutch travel and take-up is spot on with no issues. The car was rewired when the new front fill gas tank was installed, and all of the electronics on the car work as they should including the headlamps, hi-beams, turn signals, marker lights, and the horn, which has a relocated button. Under the bonnet, things are neat and clean, and I am sure you could dress it up with a carpet if you wanted to. This BAJA is a screamer, and it is so fun to drive! I took it down to the beach, and everyone gives it a thumbs-up and wants to take a photo with it! Cruise it through town, and you feel like you’re driving a little race car, with the engine roaring approval each time you hit the gas! I also had the chance to roll it about 45 miles round trip to a car show, and it handles highway cruising like a champ too! It handles like a go-kart, tracks straight and true, and doesn’t do anything funny. Upgraded brakes let you stop on a dime without any pulling, fade, or wander. The interior is a mix of stock and some upgrades, and is really clean! Rather than install a roll bar and rear pan, the prior owner opted to retain the rear seats, so that more people can join in the fun! Stock seats look fantastic front and rear, as do the stock door and side trim panels. Carpeting is an OEM style German weave with banding, and looks fantastic throughout the car. It covers the kick panels and firewall too. The headliner and rear liner were done in killer looking velvet material, and it is cleanly installed and shows damage and issue free. Seat belts are in place for the driver and passenger, and they work as they should. Steering wheel is a slotted 3-spoke unit, and looks perfect in the car. Dash houses the functional stock speedo/odometer, and an aftermarket tachometer which works like it should as well. Glove box is clean and functional, and locks like it should. Hazards, lights, and wipers all work as they should. Shifter has a billet aluminum knob and works perfectly, along with a functional emergency brake arm. Stock brake and clutch pedals sit next to a roller-style gas pedal, and all function as they should. This is a super clean BAJA BUG, and is ready to go wherever you want to take it. It has been safety checked and is ready to go. I have personally driven the car at least 200 miles, and find no issues with it at the time of this listing date. If you want a killer toy that won’t break the bank to own, this is the one for you! In the area? Come see it. If not, fly down here for a personal showing! I am willing to bet that the first person who comes here to see it in person will buy it. IT HAS A FLORIDA TITLE AS A 1970 VW BEETLE MILEAGE IS SHOWING AS EXEMPT ON TITLE I think that about does it so far as information I can supply to you. As stated, I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE a private viewing of the vehicle, or you can have an appraiser/inspector come see on your behalf PRIOR TO BIDDING.
