SURVIVOR! This Panama beige '65 Beetle is a pretty special car. It is extremely original and well preserved, low mileage example located in Colorado. 1965 was a big year for the Beetle with it's new larger windows. They made a lot of Beetles in the mid '60s but finding a really pure low mile car like this is a rarity.
This was originally purchased by a professor at Stanford University. You've heard about muscle cars with low mileage and that everyone jokes that the miles were driven 1/4 mile at a time. This car is an example of that ... the professor lived 2 blocks from campus and drove it back and forth every day ... a quarter mile at a time! Note the pictures of the Stanford stickers on the back window.
There are a few little bumps and bruises on the car and it is not without flaws, but the condition being an unrestored example is pretty impressive. Numbers matching original engine are all stock except for a 12 volt conversion. Look at the pictures of the engine closely to see all the details ... such as factory hose clamps on the fresh air tubes and the original textured tar board on the firewall.
There are a couple of light dents that a paintless dent removal guy might be able to massage out of there. The car has very bright chrome, clean lenses and all original paint. It has accessory bumper bars front and back. It is clean and straight and impressively original.
