Sales of the Volkswagen Beetle topped 15MM in 1972, surpassing the
Ford 'Model T' to earn the title of "world's most popular car."
Fun Bug-
This 1972 Volkswagen Beetle is a unique example of one of these
classics. The partially restored Beetle is in overall good
condition. The solid, straight exterior received a 2-tone re-spray
that accents the lines of the Bug and chrome/stainless components
present well.
Functional Interior-
The interior is in overall good condition. Door cards, headliner
and carpeting are nice, but the vinyl upholstery could use some
attention. The sound system has been upgraded with an Alpine AM/FM
stereo and there is a lot of luggage space behind the folding rear
seat.
Flat Four German Power-
The '72 Bug was powered by a 1600cc flat-four that output
60hp-85lb/ft. The engine compartment of this Beetle is very clean,
and the rebuilt motor (2019) has been fitted with an EMPI 2-barrel
progressive-linkage carb conversion kit. It is backed by a
synchronized 4-speed manual gearbox, and both the engine and
transmission pans are dry with no apparent seal leaks. The
underside of the unibody shows some age surface rust and the
running boards appear to be very solid. Stopping power is furnished
by 4-wheel drum brakes and Minilite-style alloy wheels mount
205/65Rx15 Douglas radial tires.
This is a fun Beetle that will provide a lot of enjoyment and
smiles to its new owner.
ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS". TRUE MILEAGE UNKNOWN UNLESS OTHERWISE
STATED.
