Vehicle Description
This classic Volkswagen was the recipient of a no-expense-spared
pan-off nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration. The restoration was
done over several years in order to accumulate all of the actual
NOS parts collected from all around the world. The exterior was
finished in Volkswagen Coral Red after the body was removed from
the pan, and every single nut and bolt was replaced during the
reassembly. The interior was done in all-original German cloth
ordered directly from Germany. The seats are done in original tan
dot German cloth, the carpet is German wool square-weave carpet,
the headliner is done in German mohair and the sliding ragtop is
German Stayfast cloth. Every accessory on this vehicle is an actual
NOS part, including the cross-laced beauty rings, Blaupunkt
Frankfurt radio and rear speaker and Petri Pelite steering wheel.
The fender skirts and German NOS hardware were painted to match the
coral exterior. This Beetle is also equipped with original NOS Moto
Meter gauges, a Hella searchlight and mirror with an original NOS
arm, Helphos NOS windshield-mounted spotlight and an NOS German
fuel tank reserve system. It is powered by an original 36hp 1200cc
motor with its original Okrasa linkage and a dual-carburetor
upgrade kit backed by a 4-speed manual transmission. This Beetle is
sold with a matching 1950s Sears and Robuck one-wheel trailer.
