I AM LISTING THIS CAR FOR A FRIEND WHO HAS MOVED OUT OF TOWN AND COULD NOT BRING IT WITH HER. I AM STORING THE CAR AT MY HOUSE WHERE IT WILL BE PICKED UP. I WILL HAVE THE TITLE SIGNED BY THE OWNER IN HAND AND WILL HANDLE THE TRANSACTION FOR HER. A BILL OF SALE SIGNED BY ALL PARTIES WILL ALSO BE MADE AVAILABLE. THE CAR HAS A SALVAGE TITLE WITH CURRENT NON-OP CA REGISTRATION. FEES ARE CURRENT BUT THE CAR IS NOT LEGAL TO DRIVE UNTIL THE NEW OWNER TRANSFERS EVERYTHING WITH THE DMV. THE CAR WILL HAVE TO BE TOWED FROM MY RESIDENCE. PICK UP FROM PALA, CA 92059 IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE WINNING BIDDER. I CANNOT GIVE SHIPPING QUOTES. THIS LITTLE BUG IS IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE OVERALL. THE INTERIOR LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN REDONE RECENTLY. THE SEATS ARE GREAT. THE HEADLINER IS GREAT. THE INTERIOR PANELS & CARPET ARE GREAT. THE ORIGINAL OWNER BOUGHT IT JUST OVER A YEAR AGO. WITHIN THAT TIME THE TIERODS & BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE 1600 DUAL PORT ENGINE WAS REPLACED ABOUT A WEEK AFTER BUYING THE CAR. THE BATTERY HOLDS A CHARGE FOREVER AND IT STARTS UP EASY EVERYTIME. THE CAR IS NON-OP BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE GIVING UP THE GHOST. I AM NO PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC AND ADMIT TO HAVE NEVER WORKED ON BUGS SO AS FAR AS I KNOW IT COULD BE AN ADJUSTMENT, BUT LETS ASSUME THAT BY THE NASTY CLUNKING AND KNOCKING SOUNDS SHE MAKES WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT IN OR OUT OF GEAR THAT YOU'LL NEED A NEW TRANNY. THE ODOMETER SHOWS UNDER 1K BUT HAS ROLLED OVER AT LEAST ONCE. THE ENGINE LOOKS TO BE IN STOCK FORM. THE ENGINE WARMS UP NICE AND IDLES FINE. I'M SURE IT COULD USE A TUNE-UP AFTER SITTING FOR 6 MONTHS BUT THATS ALL THE ENGINE SHOULD NEED FOR A LONG TIME. THE TIRES NEED TO BE REPLACED. TREAD IS DEEP BUT THE RUBBER IS DRY AND CRACKED. THEY HAVE HELD AIR DURING THIS TIME. THE HUB CAPS LOOK TO BE IN REALLY NICE SHAPE. I SEE NO SIGNS OF RUST ANYWHERE EXCEPT SURFACE RUST ON THE CHROME BUMPERS & HEADLIGHT TRIM RINGS. THE CAR WAS REPAINTED. LOOKS TO BE RECENT BUT I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHEN. THE STEREO WILL NOT BE INCLUDED WITH THE CAR. IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A SUPER BEETLE AND YOU'RE WILLING TO DO A LITTLE WORK, I THINK THIS IS A GREAT DEAL. ASK ANY QUESTIONS. CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE. THANKS FOR LOOKING.
