This 1973 Volkswagen Beetle is the full custom Bug that has been
given all the right investments and maintenance to really deliver a
cool classic for an unbeatable price.
This one really has something to offer from every angle. Up front
nerf bar bumpers and headlight eyelids look cool. In the rear, this
has more straight bumper bars, flat-mounted taillights, and the
sporty style of the bright dual exhaust tips curving around each
side. Plus, every way you look at this Beetle, you'll always catch
site of the vintage-style wood and metal roof rack. And those
minilite-style wheels have a 14/15-inch front/rear stagger for a
little more aggression in the stance. Still, even without the
custom pieces, we all love the angular sheetmetal, and flat-style
windshield. And that's highlighted further by a more recent
application of the bright blue.
The tan interior has a nice look, and it even includes some great
details like the lighter colored piping. This has some great
upgrades for comfort that range from the re-freshened carpeting, to
the AM/FM/CD stereo system with an aux input for your iPod. It
feels cool to slip into the driver's bucket seat with sporty
upgrades like the smaller diameter steering wheel, aluminum pedals,
and grippy aluminum shifter.
The everlasting appeal of the Beetle comes from the hardy
air-cooled flat-four motor in the back. But as you check this one
out, you can tell that the 1600cc unit has been treated to
cut-above maintenance and flair. In the last few years, the motor
has received a long list of upkeep, including a new carburetor,
distributor, oil pump, and alternator. And there's a newer clutch
on the four-speed manual transmission. Plus, with the shocks, ball
joints, and tie rod ends all on the recently replaced list, this
feels quite solid on the road.
There have been a ton of great investments in the VW. So we'll be
happy to go over all the full list in great detail. But you can
already tell that this is the Beetle that has been done right, and
all for a great price. Call now!
