Vehicle Description
By the mid-1960s, Volkswagen had firmly established itself as the
first import to make a dent in the United States, starting with the
first two sold in 1949. This very solid beetle has had the same
loving owner for the past 20 years. Just this year the owner sent
the car to Midwest Air-cooled & machine and spent $12,322 on
rebuilding the brake system with upgraded master cylinder (1,980).
Rebuilt the motor, installed new starter, clutch & cable clutch.
New throttle cable, replaced oil pump, all fuel lines, engine
stripped down and rebuilt 1600 long block installed. Axle gears
replaced, gaskets and O-rings. Just to name a few. Receipt in hand
for work performed.
Made in August 1963 at VW's Wolfsburg, West Germany factory, this
car is dressed in Panama Beige (code 19), the car's paint and trim
are in very good order. The bug's bodywork is straight and solid,
with Hella headlights. The engine bay is very tidy and the chrome
bumpers fit tightly to the body. The car has a sunroof, too.
This Bug rolls on Nexen SB 802 radials, size 165/80R15. Each one is
mounted on a body-colored rim topped with chrome moon wheel covers.
The wheels and tires are all in very good order.
Out back is a rebuilt 1.6L air-cooled, flat four-cylinder engine.
Backing the motor is a four-speed manual transmission.
Inside, the Mesh Brown leatherette (code 84) front seats and rear
bench seat look great. The corresponding carpet and headliner are
in similar condition. The ivory, two-spoke steering wheel looks
great, as do the dashboard with VDO gauges and inner door panels.
The car has a floor-mounted shifter and AM radio.
Nineteen sixty-four Beetle models could be identified by a widened
light housing on the engine lid over the rear license plate,
however the standard model continued to use the old teardrop style
to the end of the 1965 model run.
Competition to the Beetle in 1964 was Chevrolet's Corvair.
