Vehicle Detail
HERE'S A REALLY RARE AND VERY CHARMING, RUST FREE LITTLE 1965 BUG ORDERED WITH A/C WHEN NEW. I HAVE COLLECTED OLD CARS FOR THE LAST 44 YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN A 1965 BUG WITH ORIGINAL A/C BEFORE, NOT EVEN HERE IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA SO IT IS PROBABLY SUPER RARE. AN ARIZONA CAR SINCE NEW IT WAS SOLD BY PIMA VW IN TUCSON AND I BOUGHT THE CAR 1½ BLOCK FROM THERE RECENTLY! THE VW BELONGED TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND IN THE MID 70'S THEIR DAUGHTER TOOK IT TO FLAGSTAFF IN NORTHERN ARIZONA TO ATTEND SCHOOL THERE. BUT JUST A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATE IT WAS BACK IN TUCSON AGAIN AND IT HAS BEEN THERE EVER SINCE UNTIL I BOUGHT THE CAR AND BROUGHT IT TO PHOENIX. THERE'S LOT'S OF DOCUMENTS WITH THE VW, IT SEEMS LIKE MOST WORK WAS DONE DURING THE 70'S, THE ENGINE WAS OVERHAULED, TRANS WAS REBUILT, THE CAR WAS PAINTED IN THE ORIGINAL COLOR ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO AND THE PAINT IS VERY THIN NOW. I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE COLOR IS CALLED BUT IT IS A LIGHT BLUISH-GREEN COLOR, VERY NICE AND THE INTERIOR IS TUTONE BLUISH-GREEN. THE SEAT COVERS ARE VERY DRY, DOORPANELS ARE A LITTEL DRY BUT NOT TOO BAD, THE CARPET AND HEADLINER ARE DRY. I CALL IT RUST FREE BUT THERE IS VERY SOME RUST IN THE BATTERY TRAY, THAT IS IT. ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO THE VW WAS SOLD TO THE SECOND OWNER AND HE SPENT $3000 ON MISC STUFF, A NEW CLUTCH ETC AND THE CAR HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN 6000 MILES SINCE THEN. THE LAST TIME IT WAS DRIVEN THE CABLE FOR THE ACCERATOR WAS STICKING SOME AND IT WAS PARKED AFTER THAT. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES FINE, TIRES ARE NEW BUT THE CABLE WAS NEVER REPLACED SO THAT SHOULD PROBABLY BE DONE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE A/C WORKS OR NOT, I WAS TOLD THE CAR DOES NOT REALLY HAVE ENOUGH POWER FOR THE YORK A/C COMPRESSOR SO THE BELT WAS REMOVED. I ASSUME A MODERN COMPRESSOR WOULD BE A HUGE UPGRADE. I HAD TO BUY THE VW TO GET A 1959 CITROEN I WANTED, IT WAS EITHER BOTH CARS OR NONE. I WILL TRY TO SELL THE VW AS IT SITS RIGHT NOW, IF IT DOES NOT SELL WE'LL GET A NEW INTERIOR KIT AND INSTALL IT AND PROBABLY ALSO REPLACE THE GAS CABLE AND SELL IT AFTER THAT IS DONE. THE LIC PLATE DOES NOT BELONG TO THE CAR, I JUST PUT IT THERE BECAUSE IT LOOKS EMPTY WITHOUT A PLATE! IT CAN GO WITH THE CAR IF A BUYER WOULD LIKE BUT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE VW. THE VW IS AT MY HOME IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA. WE CAN ASSIST WITH ARRANGING TRANSPORT TO MOST ANYWHERE IN THE US OR EXPORT TO ANY COUNTRY.
