For Sale: 1970 Volkswagen Beetle in Lake Hiawatha, New Jersey

Vehicle Description

Zoom Classic Cars is proud to present this 1970 Volkswagen Beetle for sale. The 1970 Volkswagen Beetle, often fondly referred to as the "Bug," is an iconic and beloved compact car that has left an indelible mark on automotive history. With its distinctive rounded shape, economical nature, and enduring popularity, the Beetle holds a special place in the hearts of enthusiasts and casual drivers alike. This is a recent rebuild with all work performed by LVW Volkswagen in Fayetteville, NC. The vehicle has a brand-new engine made by Scat with less than 500 miles on it. The car features electronic ignition, dual carburetors, and a five-quart oil capacity. The new motor directs its power through a new four-speed manual transmission, and shoots exhaust out a new stainless steel exhaust system. The vehicle is equipped with new disc brakes, new heater boxes, and four new tires. The front spindles have been replaced and the front end lowered. The interior features custom front seats with red stitching, a new radio with USB port, two new speakers, and a new tachometer. The interior floorboard covering was removed, and completely replaced with sound proofing material as well as new carpeting. The forward trunk area also features new carpet. The back seat was recovered with new original-looking vinyl. The vehicle is painted Doghouse Red and any exterior chrome that could be replaced was including bumpers, wheel covers, and the trunk vent lids. The vehicle does feature a sunroof that the current owner has not opened. The rubber gasket shows some wear and did not want to take the chance of tearing it. A few other minor flaws are that the gas gauge needle is not always accurate because the float sticks, the horn needs to be wired, and the fan buttons on the dash do not work. The front windows work but are a little stiff to operate. The vehicle shows no signs or evidence of rust and contains the original sheet metal. The Doghouse Red paint job still shows very well after ten years. The seller has a clear title for this vehicle and is looking to make a sale. This Beetle starts, runs, and drives as it should. The simple yet ergonomic dashboard, uncluttered controls, and modest creature comforts reflect the no-nonsense approach that has endeared the Beetle to generations of owners. The Beetle's engineering emphasizes simplicity and durability, with a robust chassis, independent suspension, and tight turning circle contributing to its nimble and easy-to-drive nature. Its light and direct steering, coupled with a comfortable ride quality, make the Beetle an ideal companion for city commuting and leisurely drives. With so much of that has been updated or replaced, this is very much like a new car, with a long life ahead of it! Please call Tom F. for more information (269)-317-3955.
