Vehicle Description
1979 Volkswagen Beatle Convertible
Timeless design with a style that carries over to the current
Beatles of today. Rust free and well maintained. The paint work is
in beautiful condition, the interior is very nice with new carpets
and upholstery redone. The convertible top & boot cover was
replaced 3 months ago. Mechanically the engine runs excellent, the
brakes have been rebuilt and the 4-speed manual transmission up
shift and down shifts perfectly. The rims have been repaint and new
tires installed. Good examples are becoming harder & harder to
find. A true joy to drive with the top down on a sunny day.
In 1979 the VW ceased production of the car to the US market and to
celebrate the last year of this car, VW only produced the
convertible version for the US dealer network. The Beetle remained
true to its roots, but each year the car received some kind of
tweak or improvement and in 1979 this car gave the owner the best
it could offer.
