This beetle has been in the family for the last 10 years, last regoed in 2004.
I’m moving to the city & will have no space, hence the sale.
It’s a 1960, the interior was custom restored in 2002, and the outside was going to be the next project, which was never finished. In the meantime I was collecting a lot of parts for the resto. For the age the car it is in good nic, Rust is present at the bottom corners of the windscreen internally & at the lower body near the passenger guard, nothing major. Currently has a 1300 Single port, extractors with the rare 50/50 taillights + spare pair set of 50/50 taillights.
Also included is a 68 IRS pan (converted by Indian automotive) with front beam & IRS gearbox, it is nearly complete, currently needs assembly, good condition surface rust only.
I have a set of standard rims & tyres + a set of wide chrome rims with new tyres, 205 x 15 & 195 x 15 + 1 set of 4 original PORSCHE POLISHED FUCHS with centre caps (no tyres).
Next a 1776cc engine built by Richard Holtz, never run, balanced all new bearings, electronic ignition, ported & polished heads, lighten flywheel, custom exhaust, custom cam, alternator with dual Italian DCNF Webbers with 32 vents. Tapped with oil temp sender + gauge All this needs is a clutch kit & some linkage arms + a coil.
The cost alone on the motor was over $6000.00
I have 2 new rear guards, door rubbers, q/window rubbers, stainless scuff seals, Kmac front sway bar, new set of CB dropped spindles, rebuilt 12v starter motor & other assorted parts.
I’m going to sell this all together as one for the package price of $5500.00
My loss is your gain…..
