For Sale: 1973 Volkswagen Beetle in Lavergne, Tennessee

Vehicle Description

This 1973 Volkswagen Beetle showcases a meticulous nut-and-bolt restoration, breathing new life into a classic icon. The light blue exterior gleams under the sun, a fresh respray that perfectly complements the car's timeless silhouette. Rolling on 15" BRM wheels wrapped in P195/65R15 tires, this Beetle strikes a balance between vintage appeal and modern road presence. Fresh brightwork and moldings accentuate its curves, while upgraded tail lights add a subtle touch of contemporary flair to this meticulously restored classic.

Inside, the cabin is a study in period-correct aesthetics with a dash of modern comfort. Freshly reupholstered white vinyl bucket seats and panels create a crisp, clean atmosphere. The color-matched dash ties the interior together, while an aftermarket center console adds functionality without compromising the vintage feel. The stock layout remains largely intact, save for a modern head unit that offers AM/FM, single CD, and even AUX and USB connectivity - a nod to practicality in this otherwise period-perfect cockpit.

Powering this Beetle is a 1600cc dual-port engine, a Brazilian block that's been paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The powerplant features several thoughtful upgrades, including an MST Serpentine pulley system and a Solex 34 PICT 3 carburetor. Fresh fluids, hoses, and belts ensure reliability, while the dual exhaust system likely gives this Beetle a distinctive purr. The combination of the punchy engine and manual gearbox promises an engaging driving experience true to the Beetle's spirited nature.
