This is how you want your VW to be. You start with a final-year one
like this 1979 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible and give it the
right look of distinction and subtle upgrades to be a terrific
total package.
The yellow on this car is quite bright. It's the product of taking
the original color and restoring the luster later in life. Plus,
the bright chrome bumpers, shining trim, mirror-like wheel covers,
and upgraded exhaust tip all come together to create the perfect
personality for a sunny-day Beetle. And while you want to always be
open to the world, the nice black top also looks well-coordinated
thanks to the classic black running boards. In fact, with these
crisp black elements in place, this Beetle looks more like a bumble
bee.
We have plenty of receipts showing interior upgrades in 2016. That
kind of recent investment means the front bucket seats, back seat,
and door panels all look fresh in a bright tan. And even the black
carpeting feels plush. You get all the right iconic elements in the
Beetle, including the Wolfsburg crest on the steering wheel and the
single pod for the stylish VDO gauge. This car is also about the
thoughtful touches like the dash cover and AM/FM/cassette stereo to
keep this cruising machine with the best tunes. But the best
feature of this interior is how it continues to carry that simple
and sturdy feeling that comes from decades of building these
Beetles correctly.
The air-cooled motor has a hypnotic hum, and Ferdinand Porsche
placed it in the rear to get the most out of the small powerplant.
That's what give this Beetle such an appeal. This 1600 motor was
the largest of the series, and so you get the best original
style-power to pair with the sturdy and versatile four-speed manual
transmission. In total, this package allows you to confidently get
the most out of the motor. Plus, as a Super Beetle, you know you
get the best of the breed. The MacPherson strut independent front
suspension with sway bar is a welcomed addition to those who enjoy
cruising their classics.
A sunny-day classic Volkswagen in a true sunny-day color. This is
vintage motor you'll truly enjoy, but only if you're quick enough
to catch this Bug. Call today!!!
