Vehicle Description
The most ICONIC and RECOGNIZABLE body style of all time !
Endearingly identified as "THE BUG" The Volkswagon BEETLE stands
alone as recognizable.
For a car that had a rather odious beginning as a people's car
commissioned by Adolf Hitler, the Beetle came to be loved by
multiple generations of basic transportation seekers on every
continent.
The 1960 "Think Small" advertising campaign is still studied in
marketing classes around the world. Throughout most of its life in
the U.S., the Beetle was offered in sedan and cabriolet body
styles. Pre-1968 Beetles were inexpensive but never cheap. They
were well-assembled, used first-rate interior materials and have a
charm that's lacking in later cars. Just about every part for a
Beetle is readily available and most are quite inexpensive
.
OUR BEETLE :
Now painted in an eye catching Teal Blue metallic and a White
convertible top, all in very good condition, draws looks and
questions wherever you might be. The wheels are also color coded
with chrome center caps and good rubber with wide whitewalls that
ad to the fun look. The 1200cc motor has also been trimmed to match
the exterior color having only 1500 miles since mechanical
restoration. The bugs headlights are clear and the chrome trim
rings unblemished with both bumpers in very good order. The Inside
metal trim is again color matched complimented with blue cloth
seats and door trim in excellent condition. Ivory accents are used
(knobs,arm rests and trim rings) to set off this really nice
interior.
This is a really nice vehicle representing the iconic "BEETLE' It
is fun to drive top up or down.
ESTIMATE: $10,000-$15,000
