Here I am selling a project i started almost 20 years ago... I bought this beetle back in college. I had every intension of restoring it... Good memories... the long hair days! I made a bit of progress, then moved to Califorinia (where they made me cut my hair!!! California... what???) in my '66 VW camper van. Anyway... the car has been sitting at my mothers for many years and I thought now might be a good time to send 'er down the road. Find it a new home... maybe someone that has the energy and vision I once had!?!?!? Or maybe to someone that just need the parts? From what I remember the engine number jived with the 1962 year that I was told it was. I do not have a title. But am more than happy to supply a bill of sale. I bought many parts for this bugger... and I always bought German, not the cheaper Mexian parts that were avalible. As you can see in the photos there is a new exhaust, etc etc... As far as the engine goes. I had it line bored, installed new german cylinders (standard 1200cc if I remeber correctly), ground the valve seats and lapped them in... etc etc... Everything was assembled with assembly lube, and the engine was always stored inside. That being said the valve springs are a bit rusty and there are no garuntees on it's current internal condition. Should be fine... but? I did remove the body from the floor pans, replaced the floor pans and had them painted with some super duper high tech paint and primer. As you can see in the photos the driver side floor pan is already rusted through (how volkswagon!?) as there is no driver side window and water did come in. The windshield is broken and there is of course (as you can see in the photos) rust holes. All said and done... the beauty of this car is you can see exactly what you are getting... no suprises under the carpet, running boards or paint! It's far from perfect, but is still a '62 beetle! Buyer is responsible for arranging shipping and all shipping cost. That being said I will be heading to Hershy PA on Sunday the 3rd of Oct. If you are planning on going to Hershy, or are on our route from Minnesota to Hershy we can deliver it for $200. Payment must be recieved in full before this is done, and, if you plan on using this service please contact me, so that we can make the appropriate arrangments! This VW is being sold with No Reserve!!!! If there is only one bid... it's sold!
