Vehicle Description
For sale in our Detroit Showroom is this fully restored 1965 Volkswagen Beetle. The Volkswagen Beetle was first sold in the United States in 1949 and at that time was a much smaller car than what Americans were used to. The largest change to date for the Beetle was in 1965 which now had significantly larger windows the windshield was 11% larger and now slightly curved, door windows by 6%, rear side windows by 17.5%, and the rear window by 19.5% resulting in a much more open modern look. This particular 1965 Volkswagen Beetle was originally a California car and has undergone a full pan off restoration. It now has a beautiful tan cloth and leather interior, new carpet, and the dash was fully restored and also has a well detailed trunk area. The Beetle was lowered to give it a perfect stance and looks great with the Porsche wheels wrapped in brand new Continental tires. The engine was rebuilt and has just over 600 miles currently, has a new tuck away exhaust having a great sound, and really handles well with the upgraded radial tires and front disc brakes. This is a very fine example of a show winning Beetle which also features a great quality white exterior, original bumpers coated in triple-plate chrome, all new rubber seals, and custom Euro-style fog lamps. Everything on this Volkswagen has been restored with over $30,000 invested in the restoration and it truly shows.
