SELLING A PROJECT 1978 SUPER BEETLE CONVERTIBLE. HAS A 1600 MOTOR THAT HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO CARBURETOR, 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION. BODY WORK IS PARTIALLY COMPLETED (CHROME TRIM REMOVED AND MOSTLY SAVED), NEEDS FULL PASSENGER FLOOR PAN (WHICH IS 1/2 TORN OUT) AND SOME WORK TO DRIVERS FLOOR (WHICH COULD BE SAVED). HAS RUST IN USUAL PLACES. NEEDS BRAKE WORK (NEW UNINSTALLED MASTERCYLINDER INCLUDED), I WOULD INSTALL NEW FUEL LINES TOO, THOUGH THEY WORK. INTERIOR IS STRIPPED, MINUS FRONT SEATS AND DASH. I HAVE ALL THE ORIG. SEATS. ALL GLASS THERE AND GOOD. TOP IS OLD BUT WORKS AND I HAVEN'T NOTICED IT LEAKING. HAS A RECENT 2" TEAR IN ONE SPOT. THIS IS A PROJECT THAT WILL NEED TO BE TOWED. I WILL INCLUDE ALL PARTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY OFF THE CAR. THE FENDERS ARE NOT BOLTED ON FIRMLY BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO REPLACE THE RUBBER BETWEEN BODY AND FENDERS. ONE SIDE MIRROR BROKE OFF..HAVE IT TOO. THAT'S ALL I CAN THINK OF NOW. PROJECT CAR! I HAVE MANUALS THAT WILL COME WITH CAR TOO. ONE RUNNING BOARD IS GONE. I MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN SOME THINGS, SO FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS...JUST READ COMPLETE DESCRIPTION BEFORE ASKING. I CAN SEND YOU MORE PHOTOS OR ADD SOME TO LISTING THAT YOU MAY WANT TO SEE. SOLD AS IS AND IF YOU CAN'T PAY FOR IT PLEASE DON'T BID. DON'T BID IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 5 POSITIVE FEEDBACKS. USA BIDDERS ONLY! CAR DRIVES & SHIFTS GOOD WHEN RUNNING BUT HAS NO BRAKES. DOES HAVE EMERGENCY BRAKE. I HAD IT RUNNING GOOD, BUT CARBURETOR WAS ROUGH AND SHOT...REPLACED W/ BRAND NEW CARBURETOR, NEW PLUGS, NEW WIRES AND CHANGED THE OIL AND NEW GAS TANK. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART QUITE A WHILE LATER, IT WOULD`N'T FIRE UP. TURNS OVER FINE. I THINK IT IS THE DISTRIBUTER. PAINTED MOTOR. SOUND PROOFING INSTALLED UNDERNEATH BACK SEAT. HAVE THE BUMPERS. ONE REAR FENDER WAS DAMAGED AFTER BODY WORK WAS DONE AND I TOOK IT OFF AND HAMMERED OUT THE DENTS, NO FURTHER BODY WORK BEYOND THAT. IT NEEDS TO BE FINISHED. THE TAIL LIGHT WAS DESTROYED. CAR WILL NEED DOOR PANELS & CARPET AFTER FLOORS ARE PUT IN. ALL PARTS ARE VERY CHEAP FOR THESE CARS AND EASY TO FIND. i'M JUST DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THE PROJECT, MAYBE YOU DO? I'M SURE THERE ARE OTHER THINGS MISSING OR WRONG WITH CAR. NOTE: I PAID $2500.00 FOR THIS CAR AND PUT ENDLESS HOURS INTO IT. I WON'T TAKE LESS THAN MY RESERVE PRICE. I HATE TO SEE IT JUST SITTING AROUND, THAT IS WHY I'M SELLING IT. IT'S OBVIOUSLY NOT TO MAKE MONEY OFF. I HAVE A CLEAR TITLE. ***** I WILL CONSIDER TRADING FOR GOOD RUNNING 250 + CC DIRTBIKE (HONDA, YAMAHA, KAWASAKI, SUZUKI) OR STREET BIKES. NO JUNK THOUGH, MUST BE A GOOD RUNNING AND CLEAN BIKE.
