For Sale: 1979 Volkswagen Beetle in Volo, Illinois

Vehicle Description

Very well preserved Beetle with a great color. Unbelievable amount of documentation. I think every receipt going back to day 1 is in the folder. Has 85,295 documented miles and ownership history. Same woman has owned it the last 18 years. We have the original window sticker, sales contract and odometer statement.

EXTERIOR: I think one of the biggest assets this car has is the beautiful River Blue metallic color. Very attractive and rather unique for this car. It is great survivor condition. I believe the paint os original so it does have several nicks/chips but shines and looks beautiful from a few feet away. Body is in excellent condition. You can shut the doors with your pinky. Chrome around the window frames, mirrors, headlight bezels, turn signal bezels are excellent. Original bumpers have just slight wear. The black convertible top is in mint condition, has electric rear window defroster. Tires and wheels look new. Glass is excellent.

INTERIOR: The seats feel like they're new, the cushion is still very firm. Upholstery is in excellent shape, door panels are mint. The dash area, glovebox, steering wheel, visors, handles are excellent. The white headliner has some tears. A couple of nice upgrades includes a retro stereo and also a dual cup holder. The convertible top boot is excellent.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is very clean and proper. Everything appears to be where it's supposed to be. Has the complete jack, brand new spare on a matching rim. Also there's a car cover.

MOTOR COMPARTMENT: Very clean and proper. The motor has been completely rebuilt about 3 years ago. It is a fuel injected 1.6 liter.

UNDERSIDE: Rock solid pan, no patches or rust.

People really appreciate a good original survivor. We just bought a shabby looking original Vette and were already offered 2 restored vettes as trade. At auction I've noticed unrestored original cars bringing big money. It is rare to find any car with as much documentation as this Beetle has. It is a good honest car that has been thouroughly serviced since day one, and we can prove it!
