Few cars ever made can elicit such an immediate reaction as this
1973 Volkswagen Beetle. Fully repainted in this captivating tan
exterior, this classic 'people's car' sports upgraded clear fender
turn signals, and along with its new paint, has been the recipient
of a new motor and new interior by its current owner.
Inside, we find a nice, clean red vinyl-and-cloth interior courtesy
of Sew Fine. A pair of bucket seats sits in front of a two-spoke
steering wheel. The minimalist dashboard's highlight is a single
90-mph speedometer, while simple HVAC controls make it easy to keep
your eyes on the road.
Prop up the rear engine cover, and we find a clean engine
compartment featuring a new, horizontally opposed, air-cooled
1600cc four-cylinder engine. A single-barrel carburetor feeds this
flat-four, while a stock-style exhaust manifold expels spent gases.
That power is then channeled through a traditional four-speed
manual transmission, then through the VW transaxle and onto the
rear wheels.
