Classic Cars, you or us? This is one of the more unique cars we
have ever seen, a 1962 Goggomobil TS300 Coupe and is finished in a
very handsome green exterior with a complimenting interior. With a
bright Green livery combined with its micro size, this car is quite
an eye-catcher and would make an ideal commuter vehicle. The paint
is in very good order and most of the trim pieces are in good shape
but the taillight trim shows some patina. The glass panels are
clear and crack-free. The vehicle's lights are also in great shape.
The car rolls on 145/80R10 radial tires (yes, just 10" wheels!)
with green wheels and factory wheel covers. The car's body panels
are straight and solid, plus the engine bay is very tidy. The car's
bumpers are in very good condition and it has windshield wipers on
the opposite side of the glass from most domestic vehicles. This
car was restored a few years ago, with a recent rebuild of its
straight two-cylinder engine. The original TS 250 engine has been
rebuilt to 300cc. Increasing the motor size enhanced the car's
drivability with a four-speed manual transmission. New pistons and
cylinders were installed and the heads were worked. The transaxle
was checked and one bearing was replaced. New gaskets and new
universal joints were also installed. Very solid, this car has been
converted for U.S. driving laws. It drives and handles well. This
is a very presentable example of a Goggomobil coupe in great
driving condition. Bonus details include hand-written starting
instructions and how to work the shifter; the gears are
horizontally spaced, not vertically so the driver shifts by moving
the lever in a Z formation versus the usual H pattern. Inside, the
car's bright green bucket seats with white trim are in very good
order, while the floor mats are in good shape. The interior has
also been recently renewed. The light-colored headliner is in good
order as is the bright green metal instrument panel is beautiful.
The two-spoke, white steering wheel is in good condition and the
car's door panels look great. The driver's side even has a map
pocket with a flexible cover. The mirror glass and shift lever are
both in good condition. There is no radio in this car. Hans Glas
GmbH in the Bavarian town of Dingolfing, Germany manufactured the
very rare model European Goggomobil TS 300. Glas produced
Goggomobils until 1966, when the company was sold to BMW, and it
continued production until 1969. A total of 66,511 coupes were
produced, but very few of the TS 300 models were produced. The cars
were mostly sold in Europe where license and taxes did not apply to
cars with engines of 250cc or less. As a result, most of the cars
were the 250cc models. Top speed was between 53 and 59 mph and this
one is street legal in the U.S. This car is currently located at
our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the
odometer shows 32,660 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean
and clear, exempt mileage title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!! VIN: 02206166
