Vehicle Description
After work from 2020 to 2022, the transformation was complete from
regular Volkswagen Beetle to Beetle. This example was made during
August 1968 in West Germany. Comes with an extra set of
fenders.
With its Cement Gray exterior, the paint and trim are in overall
excellent condition. The bodywork is straight and solid, there are
no bumpers. Up front are new headlights with custom brake lights
and smoked turn signal lenses in the rear.
This Beetle rolls on new Nexen SB-8 radials, size 165/80R15 in
front and new Mastercraft Avenger G/T radials, size 275/60R15 in
back. Each tire is mounted to a black, power-coated alloy wheel.
The wheels are in excellent order while the tires are in very good
condition. The car has a new front beam axle, tie rods and shock
absorbers. Further, there is a 10-inch Fabshop 104 beam extender
and 2.5-inch drop spindles.
In back, there is an air-cooled 1.5L flat four-cylinder engine with
1776 dual carburetors and dual exhausts. The car has four-wheel
disc brakes, a new master cylinder, brake lines and hoses. The fuel
tank has been flushed and it has new lines along with a new fuel
filter. There is a four-speed manual transmission with a new clutch
cable and tube along with a new pedal assembly.
Other new parts include a windshield wiper motor, ignition, keys,
battery and starter. There is a new distributor and coil, a new
wiring harness and master fuse panel behind the rear seat. There
are new window regulators, too. The keys fit but dont lock doors,
high beams inop.
Inside, the car's black-and-gray cloth seats are in great shape.
The seat rails were moved back four inches for more leg room. An
array of 50mm Kilmat has been applied to the entire car interior,
including the headliner and insulation. A gray headliner offers
good contrast to the rest of the interior. A new, three-spoke
steering wheel and a new Black Mamba shifter are ready for new
adventures. There is a Bluetooth radio and DVD player with a pop-up
screen; two, six-inch speakers; two six by nine speakers and a
subwoofer. The rear seat has been replaced with a speaker box and
removable, lockable storage. There are custom toggle switches for
the parking lights, headlights and wipers. An AM/FM stereo with CD
player and a custom luggage tray is under the dash with a light,
mobile phone charger and voltage gauge.
For 1969, the only exterior change was the fuel filler flap no
longer had a finger indentation due to a new interior-mounted fuel
door release. For North America, the Beetle received a heated rear
window, day/night mirror and the semi-trailing, independent
suspension with double jointed swing axles as standard
equipment.
