Vehicle Detail
This is a Type 1 1969 Light Blue Beetle. Air-cooled engine (of course), manual transmission. Runs great but needs regular maintenance like all old cars. There is rust in places (typical for an old Bug) but not serious. There is a dent in the front fender near the front bumper. No AC.We have pumped a lot of dough into getting this girl running good. Not completely sure about the mileage. The guy we bought it from wasn't completely honest with us about the car. But you might as well surmise that there are at least 150,000 miles on it. I think the odometer says 148000. Currently using as a local daily driver in Katy, TX. I'll be taking more detailed pics and will email them to interested buyers. Parts replaced in the last year: Generator and generator shims Fan Belt Fuel Pump Carburetor Complete brake system--master cylinder, brake lines, shoes Signal switch CV Joints Gas Cap Title is CLEAR. If you purchase this vehicle I'll throw in the classic car maintenance manual, "How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive" by John Muir--a manual full of cool illustrations and common-sense instructions on repairing and maintaining a vintage Bug. Please, serious buyers only. Please email me only if you're truly interested. I don't want to waste your time or mine. If you decide to purchase this vehicle, I'm going to insist that you visit the title office right away and transfer the title and get back to me with proof. IMPORTANT: CASH IS KING. This is a cash only sale. The "payment" tab on this listing says "cash, cashiers check or money order" and did not give me an option to change to cash only. No money orders, cashiers checks, checks, or credit cards. IMPORTANT AGAIN: This is a local pickup only. I'm listing this nationally to attract more buyers but I can't ship this vehicle. Please contact me for pickup arrangements. Please email me with any questions. I have described the car as accurately as possible. The best way for you to make your own assessment is to come take a look. Thank you for your consideration.On Jan-19-13 at 20:44:28 PST, seller added the following information: This is a Type 1 1969 Light Blue Beetle. Air-cooled engine (of course), manual transmission.

Next inspection due April 2013. Registration sticker is good until August 2013. Seats are in GREAT condition. In order to protect them further from sunlight, I covered the back and front seats with excellent quality Dickies seat covers. Carpeting is in good condition. Glove box is small and it locks but not very well. Transmission is ok but like any car with a manual tranny, you have to get used to its quirks. Car has original radio. Other than engine parts and tires, most of the parts on this car are original. We have some extra parts for replacing the seals around the windows that we'll give the winner too. On Jan-21-13 at 19:50:46 PST, seller added the following information: By the way, this should go without saying but I'm saying it anyway: This car is being sold AS IS. There is no warranty, implied or explicit. Just covering all the bases, people.
