Description

We were told that this VW was originally purchased in Plattsburgh. NY by a gentleman in the service for his wife. Original owners manual and ID card are included. They had the car from new for over 30 years and it was a well cared for vehicle that was garaged and not used in winters. The car was originally red color. The next owner used the car for a number of years and restored it about six years ago. The car was properly disassembled for painting and had all new weatherstripping and fender beading and painted Peru Green as shown in the photos. This is a 1969 original color but it was not available on the convertibles originally. It is an extremely clean and well-running Beetle and we have loved it for every minute and it is ready for its new home. Engine and mechanical summary : The VW starts and runs extremely well. We have never had any major issues and have always marveled just how well and reliably it has run. It has a 1600 cc VW engine that is a 1969 serial number. I was told that the engine had been rebuilt and it runs excellent. Both red indicator lights show a working generator and adequate oil pressure. Engine cylinder compression is 110 lbs. per cylinder. Clutch is smooth and sure and transmission shifts smoothly and stays in gear properly. There is no grumbling or howling from the rear differential and the muffler and exhaust are in great shape. The brakes are very good and the tires are like new. The body and paint are immaculate with no dents or scratches and not a speck of rust. Underbelly has no rot and heater channels are in perfect condition. Sills and wheel wells are very nice. also. The interior carpeting. seat covers door panels and top were all replaced new when restored and are perfect LN condition. There is cracking and repair of original black vinyl dash cover in the strip below the glove box. It has a Pioneer CD radio with its amplifier located in bonnet with extra speakers in back behind rear seat. We don't use the stereo much but it is nice. The VW has the original jack. tool roll and an extra fan belt under the bonnet.
