Everyone knows the VW Beetle or Type I, and most people know about
the Super Beetle that was introduced in 1971 offering a larger more
powerful 1600 CC twin port engine, but the biggest thing was
overall size and space that the Super offered. It offered 43% more
luggage capacity and rear leg room which was huge for families. It
also offered a smoother ride with the MacPherson strut front
suspension that was incorporated and other things like the energy
absorbing wheel. It also incorporated some more user friendly
features with interior redesign. Now for the fun part, this Beetle
was purchased new in Big Rapids MI by a company owner for his
secretary. She drove the car until the Mid- 1980's when she willed
the car back to the Gentleman that bought it for her. And from
there went the car was then willed to his son who has had the car
for the last twenty years. This Enzian Blue VW has never had any
paint work done ever. It still sports the original interior, in
fact the seller says the only thing ever changed on the car has
been the tires and windshield wipers. The car has been kept up with
oil changes and routine maintenance but other than that is
untouched. It has covered just under 60,000 miles from new and
sports the VW Auto Stick that operates very good. This is such a
cool story on a great vehicle. There are subtle body flaws but
still represents very well with out any major rust issues to speak
of. This Bug starts, runs and drives very well with no leaks or
smoke.
