Convertible for your consideration. Finished in a sharp Blue

Kenwood speakers, and much more. Recent engine work totaling
$2,362.19 included adjusting the valve lash with new hardware,

you anywhere in the United States! Don't hesitate to call us with
any questions or for more information.
The Volkswagen Beetle is one of the most recognizable automobiles
ever produced, with its distinctive rounded styling and dependable
air-cooled engine earning it worldwide popularity. By 1978, Beetle
production had ended for the U.S. market, making these final-year
convertibles especially desirable among enthusiasts. Known for
their simple mechanical design, excellent parts availability, and
enjoyable driving characteristics, late-model Beetle convertibles
continue to be highly sought after for their timeless appeal and
open-air driving experience.
