Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is excited to offer This beautifully
restored 1969 Volkswagen Beetle, finished in its factory-correct
Diamond Blue and packed with tasteful upgrades that perfectly blend
vintage charm with modern drivability. Freshly repainted in its
original color, this iconic Beetle captures the unmistakable
personality that made the Beetle a worldwide legend, while the
black powder-coated trim and handles add a clean custom contrast
that gives this classic VW a sharper, more aggressive presence.
Inside, the cabin has been thoughtfully refreshed with a host of
quality upgrades designed to make every drive more enjoyable. New
EMPI seats with removable headrests provide improved comfort while
maintaining the classic air-cooled vibe. A fresh dash, new ISP
Speedometer and fuel gauge, and a sporty EMPI Trigger shifter
modernize the driving experience without taking away from the
Beetle's timeless simplicity. The upgraded EMPI steering wheel adds
a perfect finishing touch to the interior.
This Beetle also delivers impressive comfort and entertainment
features rarely found in classic Volkswagens. A Retrosounds
Bluetooth radio allows you to stream your favorite music while
cruising, powered through upgraded 6.5-inch front speakers, 6x9
rear speakers, an amplifier, and a custom subwoofer enclosure
mounted neatly behind the rear seat. Ceramic window tint helps keep
the cabin cool while adding a sleek appearance.
Underneath, this Beetle has been extensively upgraded for improved
handling and stopping power. A New AirKewld 4-inch narrowed
adjustable beam gives the car an aggressive lowered stance while
maintaining drivability, paired with new shocks all around for a
smoother ride. Four-wheel disc brakes dramatically improve braking
confidence, while the upgraded blade-style fuse panel enhances
reliability for modern driving.
Power comes from a classic 1600cc single-port air-cooled engine
mated to its stock transmission, featuring the desirable and
increasingly rare swing axle setup. This Beetle retains the
unmistakable sound and feel that VW enthusiasts love while
benefiting from thoughtful upgrades throughout. LED headlights with
integrated running lights and switchback turn signals, along with
LED taillights, improve visibility and add a modern touch without
overpowering the classic styling.
