Here is a great opportunity to own a true investment grade early
Beetle that is stunning in every sense of the word. This 1951
Volkswagen Beetle is a split-window sedan that is finished in beige
over tan cloth upholstery and powered by a 1.1-liter flat-four
paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. It is the first year the
Beetle was commercially available and features over 24 improvements
over the 50 model year.
The bodywork has been refinished in beige, and equipment includes
rubber-lined running boards, chrome trim and bumpers, a driver's
mirror, and pillar-mounted semaphore turn indicators. Body-color
15? steel wheels wear chrome hubcaps and are wrapped in Firestone
Deluxe Champion tires. The braking is provided by mechanical
four-wheel drums.
The 1.1-liter flat-four is fitted with a replacement Solex
carburetor with throttle pump. Power is sent to the rear wheels via
a four-speed manual transaxle with upgraded split synchros.
Additional equipment includes chrome-finished bumpers, rubber floor
mats, rubber-lined running boards, a folding rear seat, and
functioning pillar-mounted semaphore turn indicators.
The seats and door panels have been reupholstered in tan striped
cloth, and interior equipment includes fresh air vents, storage
pockets in the dash, front bucket seats, a folding rear bench,
rubber floor mats, crank windows, and a roller throttle pedal. The
three-spoke steering wheel frames an 80-mph VDO speedometer with a
five-digit odometer showing 57k miles but the title shows
exempt.
