Vehicle Detail

Custom restored '74 Super Beetle ConvertibleJCS 2110 Dual Carb EngineJCS Freeway Flyer transmissionOver 25K spent, lots of receipts.I bought this car in July, 2010 from the owner who did the restoration. I bought it for my wife, and she has not really used it much. We have put 652 miles on it since we bought it and that is the reason we're selling it. With a street bike, dirt bikes, a ski boat and busy schedules, we don't really get time to use it.The following is copied from the ebay listing by the previous owner:This is a stunning light blue VW Classic Convertible. I have invested over $25K onm the restoration of this vehicle. the engine, transmission were purchased from JCS. The engine is a turn key 2110cc with the new engine and heads upgrade. Kennedy stage 1 clutch, performance exhaust, dual 40mm carb set, single side cover IRS transmission (388:1 R&P super diff, 11D street) total cost $5210.85 (I have the receipt)The car comes with new wheels and tires and is also equipped with all four wheel disc brake conversion. New paint and nedw custom interior, it also has a new canvas convertible top with headliner. the suspension system also includes new front struts and rear shocks. All the rubber has been replaced and the dash assembly is also new. The radio needs to be installed and hooked up to the speakers, also the speedo is currently inoperative and the true mileage is unknown. (I have repaired the speedo, but it still pulses at low speed) The vehicle includes just about everything new.I would add that this thing is quick, and with the higher geared transmission, it will gladly cruise down the highway at 80mph all day.The previous owner was obviously an enthusiast.He did spend a lot of money in all the right places and came up with a very appealing car.Based on what I've seen recently, I would place the real market value of this car around $20K, and that will only go up with time. These old Beetles, especially convertibles are great investments.Please check the pictures and video link (you can hear it run) carefully to insure you know exactly what you're buying, and good luck; summer is almost here!
