4 cyl

semi auto no clutch

Clear

Good solid body, no rust on floors (all redone and welded floor and weak spots) Doors close properly, about 82,000 miles, will need paint eventually, seats good though will need new padding on drivers seat and repair of back seat upright, it has a few tears on the top.. It has new carpeting and dash cover. New rings, pistons, pins and cylinders, 100 miles on new engine, new muffler and extensions, tires good and runs great. Original radio works but needs speakers as there is only one and that is old. Top is water proof but will need replacement in the future, rear window is fine, interior roof vinyl is good, Horse hair is usable for new top when installed. Shocks and front end is fine. all gauges and switches work. Rear heat cables are disconnected. Battery good . Original body still has Zbart holes (rust proofing) and plugs. Good front end, has spare in front. Clear title under Pa. This is not a restored car but is in good running and visual condition. RESTORATION>to restore this VW to get top dollar, You will need mostly cosmetic work needs to be done as paint and top. Ready to drive anywhere, make a adventure of a life time and drive it cross country. Since it has a new rebuilt engine, it has already been tuned up and valves adjusted ( it has new points, cap, wires etc) All work done by a VW mechanic. Existing paint is about 10 years old and is a repaint over the original orange. The paint looks good from 5 feet, but there are a few places that the paint flaked, I covered that up with a close match orange but sill it will need a repaint some year. What is nice, is it looks great in that orange paint and will always bring waves and stares. No reserve on the car. Semi Auto trans, no clutch 3-speed, reverse and park. Auto Trans that is towable behind a RV or car. Some spare parts as a mirror. The reason, no reserve is I have 5 cars and this needs to move to make room. I am sorry to see it go as I only needed some more time to make it a SUPER super beetle. So, Now it is your turn to finish it up and have it restored or just enjoy the car as it is fun to drive. I have a tow bar that will fit on the front with bumper removed for $50.00 you can pay here at my house and tow it home or of course drive it home.
