Beautifully restored 1963 Volkswagen Beetle convertible. Documented body off restoration, with an entire photo album that shows it from start to finish. Body was painted inside and out, including in the fender wells like originally done by VW. It has been converted to a 12 volt system and the engine was upgraded to a 1776cc. Engine and transmission were both rebuild by Archway in St.Louis. It has only had around 800 miles put on it since completion. It has been stored in a climate controlled garage year round. Restoration was completed in 2009. The car itself shows 34,494 miles. All seals were replaced using West Coast metric rubber, all chrome was refinished, and the top was completely rebuilt. The top material is Stayfast Canvas, with a matching boot included. This was an every nut and bolt restoration, not a quick in and out job. Doors align correctly and everything on the car works as it should. It is worth mentioning that the car was changed to a ball joint front end at some point by a previous owner. Not sure why, there is no evidence of a wreck or a rust problem. Body tag and chassis numbers match. This is a exceptional example of an early convertible VW that can be driven and enjoyed, and with the larger 1776cc engine it has the power to get going with traffic rather than being run over!
