1964 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic Additional Info:
1964 VW Beetle - "Herbie the Lovebug" Replica.
We purchased this car in 2009 had it shipped to our house in Nebraska. This car spent 95% of it's life in California before coming to us. It spend the winters in our garage and has NO Rust, s you can see in the photos. The floors are solid and are original, s I see no welding of them being replaced.
3 months after getting the car, had to rebuild the motor. Everything was replaced internally. It is very strong and runs like a champ.
We are moving and our new home will notaccommodatethe many toys we haveacquired, o some must go. Please let me know any and all questions you may have about this car before bidding.
Here is a video of the car running -

The car is driven nearly every day and drives like new. The paint and interior look great, ut does have minor blemishes/dings. All ACC, ncluding Lights,Directionals, eater, uelGauge, orn and Parking Brake work like they should.
The only mechanical issuewiththis car is, very now and then it pops out of 4th gear. It has never been an issue with me as you just put it back in gear and go."
