Selling this awesome "Blast from the Past" 1973 VW SUPER BEETLE for my good friend. This would make somebody a fabulous graduation gift! EVERYTHING has been done to this bug ( have a whole big envelope of receipts). When they started on this car in 2003, it had 995 miles showing on the odometer (have no knowledge of any numbers prior to this point as to accuracy of the mileage) and now it has 34,796. Only 33,801 miles in 14 years, never has been a daily driver. Always was garaged or parked under a cover. NEW brakes, wheel cylinders, brake hoses and pads, front struts, bushings, wheel seals and bushings, clutch cable and steering damper.0NEW alternator (73 is a half year car for either alternator or generator), electronic ignition, distributor, ignition. NEW heads, gaskets, main bearings, cam bearings. Motor mounts, carburetor kit, total tune up (new plugs and wires) Complete set of seatbelts, front and rear. After market JVC in dash stereo. Tires have tons of tread, no weather cracking but they were purchased in 2000 so buyer may choose to replace at some point in time. Has been repainted, there are a few minor flaws that you can view in the photos. Great paint but shows a little flat on the back end. Will try to get some wax on this little beauty, she deserves to shine BIG! Replaced both bumpers, all new weather stripping and new running boards. INTERIOR has NEW seat covers (slip covers over the front seats), NEW carpet kit. Dash is in great condition. This is just a great ride and it screams. I took it out and drove it and you can get up to 75mph on the interstate with ease. Well here it is.....not too many low mileage, old school unmolested bugs around. Especially the much, sought after 73 Super BEETLE. BUYER is responsible for any/all costs in shipping this vehicle. SELLER will work closely with whomever you choose to transport car and if you need help with that we could assist you but will ultimately be your decision. Car can remain on sellers property for a reasonable amount of time while BUYER makes arrangements for pickup. SELLER will take every reasonable precaution to take care of buyers property but will not be liable for unforeseen incidents (weather, crime, etc...) Ready for a roadtrip? Fly into the Tucson International airport and we'll pick you up. Questions related to mechanical or cosmetics on this car answered asap! I appreciate that you not ask me "what is the reserve"! This is an auction and it sure seems unfair to the other bidders. You are the only one that knows how much you can\want to bid on this hard to find VW, so please bid away. When the numbers go GREEN you'll know you're winning. These listings take a lot of time to compose and manage so please discuss with your wife, husband, banker, priest, etc....PRIOR to you being the winning bidder only to later find you owning this may be problematic. THANKS FOR STOPPING BY......... On Jun-09-17 at 12:31:46 PDT, seller added the following information: Just realized there is no engine photo! Will get on that asap. There is a very modest reserve on this little buggy in relationship to what the asking price is on some of these '73's. Great opportunity to get an original old school VW without having to sell a kidney. This bug belongs to a friend who is 88 years old, drove it like it too (lol) so it's never had a hard day. Just no longer needs to have it around so ready to send her to a new home. Okay, just putting some thoughts out there for ya.On Jun-09-17 at 12:50:19 PDT, seller added the following information: Clear, signed and notorized Arizona title in hand! Have a fun day!On Jun-10-17 at 14:24:58 PDT, seller added the following information: Come by and drive it, send your mechanic to look it over. Be around all weekend and look forward to meeting you.Chris 1-520-490-1870.On Jun-10-17 at 18:38:24 PDT, seller added the following information: FINAL UPDATE: THIS IS YUGE! I say to myself "those tires just look too awesome for being 17 years old". So I dig in the glove box and find a receipt from 2011 for 4 KUOMO POKER STAR tires purchased from Discount Tire. According to the mileage listed on the invoice these tires have a bit over 4000 miles on them (50,000 mile tires) BOOM, just saved somebody $500.00! Happy Bidding!
