1968 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic Additional Info:
This is a very solid 1968 V.W. Bug that has had only two previous owners. Both owners were elderly women that seemed to keep the car very original. The motor was rebuilt in 200, I have the receipts. The Bug looks to have had one repaint in the original Savannah Beige & could more then likely use a new one. I see no indications of any accidents. I replaced the engine deck lid as the one on the car had a pretty good dent, I still have the deck lid if the new owner wants it. The running boards appear to be original & need to be replaced as the rubber is history. This Bug has not been butchered in any way & still retains it's original Black Calif. plates. There is some light surface rust ( patina ) but zero rust or rot, the pans are in super great shape . This has always been a desert car from Palm Springs Calif. as well as having the original Black plates, it also wears the original license frame from the long gone V.W. dealer. The car has a strong engine but has trouble at idle, you have to keep feathering the pedal. I think the carburetor would benefit from a rebuild. The car shifts fine & does not pop out of gear, the tires look OK but do have weather cracks . The body has a few small dings & dents as to be expected from a 50 year old car. The seats are worn as seen in the pictures. This cool old Bug can be a daily driver with very little work, very little. This Bug is also a perfect candidate to be restored & it deserves it as it has good bones! I have the original owners manua, a little worn but I have it. This is a matching number Bug that has mega potential ! I would recommend having the car transported until a few bugs are worked out, it does however run & drive. The windshield has a few cracks & should be replaced, at least i think I would want it fixed there is no obstruction of vision & I have pictured the crack. If you transport this car to it's new home the cost is your responsibilit, I will make myself available for pick up . I need the car picked up within one week, I will require a $500.00 deposit via paypal immediately after you win the car, not the next day or day after but immediately after you win it. I will need the balance within three days either by cash in person or Bank to Bank transfer, if you can't pay in person I prefer Bank to Bank payment . I will take a cashiers check, but I will not release the car until I know it's clear. If you have any questions, ask! you are welcome to pre -inspect the car if you like. If you can not look at it first, you can rely on my 100% feedback & know that I am accurately describing this classic Bug! If you would like to talk to me you can reach me at 805-453-8368. The car is currently in Palm Desert Calif. To recap, this is a cool & very good example of an original 1968 V.W. Bug . The car is certainly not perfec, but as I said before it has good bones & no rust & it's a numbers matching car, the Bug has not been molested. I'm a good seller & would appreciate no BS, if you don't have the money please don't buy it as these ads are not free! If you have 0 or no feedback, please contact me before you do anything. I need a $500.00 deposit right after you win & the balance in three days! I have a clean & clear title in my hand, this car has been on a Calif non op since 2013. There are no back fees. Please take a good look at the pictures as they tell the story, ask any & all questions. Thanks for looking & good luck!
