Vehicle Detail

This is one of the nicest old 1959 Beetles you will see on the road as the restoration and build are high quality with the best of parts and materials & lots of chrome The Bug was and stripped and painted this awesome light blue and is a real eye catcher as whenever I drive it there always people staring and plenty of thumbs ups!!! Well powered with a 1835 engine, 041 heads, 90 mm pistons, Engle 110 cam, full circle crank, dual carbs, 1700lb Kennedy clutch, lightened flywheel, this bug is VERY fast and has a very impressive sound/whine when racing through the gears and pulls strong even in 4th………… All new brakes & lines, converted to 12 volt with alternator, adjustable front beam, cruises on the freeway at 70-80 all day long with the road gears. New Grey tweed interior, door panels…etc…etc…all original floors with original sound deadening grey headliner & salt and pepper carpet.Gas tank has been lined and polished up as seen in the pics, bumper brackets have been powder coated & bumpers have been re-chromed. Polished wheels and the tires have almost all their tread left. Car has been wired for a head unit in the glove but I couldn't bring myself to cut and install speakers as the inside looked so pristine Approximately 1000 miles on car since restoration but the true mileage on the chassis is unknown as the speedometer has been replaced. Car is rust free and always garage kept and a real attention getter not to mention great fun to drive and we just added an awesome roof rack and that pic will be up very soon. If you are looking for a turnkey 1959 Bug for the summer fun this is the one for you. Check out the pics and they will do the talking for this little beast and as with all 56 year old cars there will be a nick or small minor spot here and there so if you want a "show car" then look to the bugs that are $20k plus to find a trailer queen as this is a driver and needs to be driven hard with this rocket motor!!!! I will assist with shipping but all those costs are the responsibility of the buyer.A $500.00 non-refundable deposit by Paypal is required within 24 hours of close by the buyer. Seller reserves the right to end auction early as car is for sale locally and the car is sold as is with no warranty.On Jun-17-15 at 08:32:33 PDT, seller added the following information: JUST ADDED THIS COLD START VIDEO.........TO SEE IT GO TO YOU TUBE AND SEARCH UNDER "shoobie33" then you will see a video titled "1959 vw bug cold start" On Jun-19-15 at 08:28:04 PDT, seller added the following information: RESERVE JUST LOWERED BY $1,000.00 TODAY!!!!!
