Vehicle Detail
'73 Volkswagen Super Beetle. This is an "A" title car with 35,118 ORIGINAL miles. This car was fully restored from the ground up about 10 years ago and rarely driven. It was driven to a few shows.. This car gets attention everywhere it goes. Super clean and incredible attention to detail! Lots of polished stainless and billit aluminum throughout. Custom paint and pinstriping. Pinstriping was done by the legendary pin stripe artist Mike Caputo. Beautifully done. Paint work was professionally done to show quality and is awesome. Body is super straight. All body side trim, head light rings, etc. were replaced with high quality replacements after repaint. All of the glass is in great shape. Floor pans, heater channels, frame head, strut towers, etc. are original to car and in excellent shape and underside of car was painted during restoration. Creative Car Craft fiberglass widened fenders and widened stock style bumpers with built in turn signals. Car has 68-72 style tail lights. Engine is a fully rebuilt-stock 1600cc dual port that runs excellent. Starts with ease and runs smooth. Engine was kept stock for reliability and is great on gas. You can drive this car anywhere. Car still has heater boxes and heat blows well. Monza exhaust. Front end was gone through; as was the entire brake system. Car drives straight and smooth and stops well. The clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing were replaced at time of engine rebuild. The 4 speed transmission shifts with ease with a Hurst style shifter. Custom interior finished in tweed, new carpet, sculpted door panels and headliner. New steering wheel and dash pad. Billit Specialties wheels with Michelin tires all of the way around. Rear tires are wide to fill in the fenders. Tires have great tread although the fronts are starting to get dry. Car has a very nice stance and a hot rod look to it. Never fails to draw attention. Pop out 1/4 windows! All fender beading and weatherstripping was replaced. Fender beading was custom made and is a unique color to match paint. Sunroof works great and the mechanism was rebuilt. Less than 500 miles since restoration. Drives excellent. There was loads of attention to detail put into the restoration of this car and lots of time and money invested. I am offering this car at a low reserve. The set reserve price is 3x less than the amount invested into the restoration. If you live close by I encourage you to come see this car in person.
