Description

1959 VW Beetle Rag TopONE OF A KIND AND A REAL EYE CATCHERThis 1959 Beetle was featured on the cover of Hot VW's magazine in October 2002. The car was a nice original rust free driver before one of the previous ownersdisassembled the car and it underwent a long 3 year fecelift. First. the car was sent to the renowned Koch's in Southern California where thefactory sliding sunroof was graft-in by the pros from a '61 beetle donor. Original semaphores were also added. The car is rust free. accident free and includes the original numbers matching1192cc - 36hp engines that it was featured in the magazine with. One of the cool accessories of the engine built at Engine Dynamics in Minden. NV is the Porsche 356 12-Volt generator. The car sits on Flat 4 BRM wheels and brand new tires. Sunroof canvas is in excellent condition in dark blue color. riginal correct Goldie locking handle in the interior. The interior is beautiful and the color combination really sets itapart from other cars. the carpet is quality german square wave. Door panels are super clean. powder coated seat framesLight tan headliner in very good condition. no rips or tears. Restored stock speedometer. All the trim and chrome on the car is still very nice and it has a fewperiod Empi emblems and badges. Original oval W decklid. Suspension is great and car drives awesome and straight. Front has stock beam with weld-in adjustersand back has Sway-A-Way torsion bars. Beetle stops on a dime. This car has many hard to find accessories all around. ome are but not limited to:Very rare armrest between front seats. rubber bumper overriders. umper guards. vintage ski rack with a pair of skies. are an real "Australian" windshield visor (not a repro). eal metal made rear window blinds. passenger optional sideview mirror. fluted headlight lenses. nbsp; rare Empi Coachsteering wheel. original german Bambus package tray. HUF steering lock with OG keys. rare e-brake with rubber handle cover. uel tap accessory handle. accessory sunvisors and rear view mirror cover. are and super hard to find locking foldable shifter. OS running boards. cast aluminum "D" (Deutschland) bumper signand customized 1959 license plate frames (2). nd one of the best is the original Robri front and rear gravel guards with foot scuff guards. California historical vehicle license plates. SO HERE ARE THE NEGATIVES:Unfortunately this beautiful car has started to havepaint issues at some spots. Major damage is on the roofbehind the rag top. some minor spots are in the rearquarter panel under the chrome trim and at the fender beadings. The top was resprayed to stop future damage but was not made by a professional. Most of the paint still looks nice and shiny. If you want a perfect look then an exterior respray is recommendable. Next. car has a whining noise that disappear when clutch is pressed down. by some mechanic advise this could be caused by a failed clutch pressing plate. Transmission shifts perfect with no gear pop outs at all. Car has not been registered since 2011 and I personally wentto the DMV to check on registration fees and they are close to $700. California title is clean and free of liens. If you want to receive the car with the tags paid I can also do thatbut the fees to be paid by buyer.
