Zoom Classic Cars presents this classic 1970 VW Beetle Convertible!
A little about this Beetle year: The '70 Volkswagen starts with a
twist of the key, and while the chugging idle sounds the same as
previous years, the engine producing it is much different-still an
air-cooled boxer four, but now with 1,584-ccs of displacement, more
than double the horsepower (57) at 4,400 rpm, and 82 lb.-ft of
torque. The four-speed transmission is synchronized, and the
shifter gates are better delineated, so there's less guesswork as
to where to find first. First gear is still super low-15-mph
max-but the 1970 Beetle will do 35 mph in second gear, a speed the
1949 Volkswagen, for example, could only attain in third. The 1970
Beetle has high-back bucket seats that are comfortable, supportive,
and can be adjusted without unscrewing them from the floor. The
dashboard is still stark, but the speedometer is centered ahead of
the driver and contains - yes, a fuel gauge. The two-spoke steering
wheel looks like it was designed and not merely fabricated. There's
even a radio! The back window seems huge, and over-the-shoulder
visibility is much better. Not that it matters, because the 1970
Volkswagen Beetle has a driver-side mirror! This VW resides in
Bethlehem, PA and the present owner has cared for and maintained it
with pride. Beautiful orange exterior and black interior. 4 - speed
manual transmission with a peppy 4 - cylinder engine. This car has
a clean title. This Beetle is not in mint condition, however, it
drives great, runs smooth and looks awesome! Give Mike a call to
learn more about this Beetle and come take a look at a true
classic! 973-768-6426
