This posting is for a 1968 VW Baja beetle. This Beetle runs, drives. The autostick transmission works great. It does need a valve adjustment because it ticks when you drive it. It only does this when you are driving it though when it is at idle it makes no ticking noise. There is some rust on the car. I didnt see anything rusted trough though. the floor pan under the battery looks good. all of the seats are there just in rough shape. It does need some cleaning up and a battery. The one I put in there to test it was out of my truck so that doesn't come with it. So it would be good to bring a tow truck or a trailer. This has been sitting in my storadge yard or a while. the tires have air but they are dry rotted. I put new gas in it it idles nice. I set the timing in it. The oil is good. This has had the fiberglass kit put on it. The rear engine part has been caged in and the rear section of the car has been cut out. This has had a ton of stuff done to it but it has been sitting for a while and need some love to go have some fun in it. This is by no means a piece of junk this is a great car. My friend had it fixed up for his daughter to drive but she didnt like it so it has just sat for a while. Now it is time to get it to someone that will take care of it and be able to enjoy it. I will post some pictures of it. I have sold a couple cars on here and motors and stuff. I like to think I am pretty mechanical and I have never had anyone complain because I do my absolute best to check everything over and make sure I list all if any issues with my items especially a big purchase like a car. This has a clean and clear pink slip. Please feel free to email me with any questions. Like I said I will post some pictures of this to go with the video but the video pretty much tells the story. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

I FIXED THE TICKING IN THE MOTOR NOW IT DOESN'T MAE ANY NOISE WHEN YOU DRIVE IT. IT WAS JUST A VACUUM LEAK THAT I FIXED. I DRAINED ALL THE GAS OUT OF IT BECAUSE IT HAD GONE BAD AND REPLACED IT WITH FRESH NEW GAS. SO IT IS RUNNING A LITTLE BIT SMOOTHER NOW. IT STILL HAS KIND OF BOGS DOWN WHEN I HIT THE GAS BUT I WILL TRY TO FIX THAT TOMORROW. I TOOK IT FOR ANOTHER TEST DRIVE AND IT DROVE MUCH BETTER WITH NO TICKING SOUNDS.
