The body was removed from the chassis. disassembled. and was completely refinished inside and out. It is the correct L32K paint code called Phoenix Red. marketed in Love Bug advertising as "red hot red". but is actually bright orange in color. Exterior basecoat/clearcoat has been wet sanded and buffed to show car quality. All exterior trim has been restored and refinished in the correct Love Bug satin black. While the body was removed the chassis was completely disassembled and sand blasted. Both floor pans were correctly replaced as well as the front frame head lower plate. The front axle beam was replaced with a VW OEM adjustable unit and rebuilt with all new parts. The car is lowered about 2 inches and has an oversize sway bar and KYB gas shocks at all four corners that work well with the lowered stance. The complete brake system is new including stainless steel brake lines. The engine is a stock 1600 dual port. It is a correct 1974 "AH" block but is not original to this car. It runs perfectly with no leaks of oil. exhaust. or compression. Various upgrades have been recently made including new carburetor. electronic ignition. aluminum valve covers. and full ceramic coated Eurosport exhaust including heater box elimination pipes. Original troublesome factory heating system has been removed to improve engine cooling. boost performance. and to help prevent common rocker panel rust issues. Cars restored to this level are typically only out on the nicest of days so heat should not be needed. The original transaxle shifts smoothly. doesn't leak. and oil has been changed to synthetic fluid. New mounts and new axle assemblies installed. Interior has new TMI full carpet with Dyna-mat underlayment. carpeted trunk and custom carpeted rear shelf. Seat upholstery has been replaced with original style black covers. Later model VW leather wrapped steering wheel and new Retrosound stereo system. This rare car runs. drives. looks. and sounds better than new. The attention to detail of the restoration rivals other Beetles listed and the documentation is very unique. . Factory manual accompanies the vehicle and shows original owner Martha Lackey taking delivery on August 7th 1974 from Walker Volkswagen in Cape Cod - original dealer sticker preserved. Car comes with some impressive documentation and the pictures truly speak for themselves.
