1965 VW Beetle For Sale
This is a truly top level Cal Look build.
Professional all the way, very nut and bolt turned, ody off restoration.
Done right.
This car sold off our website in 2012 to the current owner, ocated in Tennessee.
He has driven the car only a few times since buying it and it still looks as fresh and perfect as it did when he bought it.
The only changes have been the personalized Tennessee license plate and a little matching pinstripe action on the dash.
The "Manbug"...a play on the Ladybug thing of course...and this Beetle truly earns the name...its a beast!
These pics below were from the original ad and quite frankly they show the car in much better detail.
I have inspected current images that the owner has provided and it truly looks as impressive today as it did when these photos were taken.
He has kept it garaged and well pampered!
The car is currently located in Tennessee, lthough the build was done in Southern California and the best of the best stuff was used inside and out.
The car has been driven less than 6000 miles since completion, as been stored indoors and properly pampered.
Great stance and attitude to the car.
The shaved body chrome, ainted headlight rings and mirrors, imple T bar bumpers, tc.
It is very slick.
Factory sunroof, al look window rubber, pc windows in the doors.
The "Gasburner" wheels are wrapped with classic big and little combination of rubber.
Color matched running boards are another smooth styling change.
Paint quality is excellent and the color is just plain beautiful.
Exhaust holes shaved smooth.
Nice stainless exhaust from A1
Euro style amber top taillight lenses.
Really a beautiful car, lean, lassy, anitary and fast.
Disc brakes on all four corners.
Under the front hood is fully show detailed.
Out back as well...very sanitary.
