1964 Volkswagen Beetle Additional Info:

By the mid-1960s, Volkswagen had firmly established itself as the first import to make a dent in the United States, starting with the first two sold in 1949. This very solid beetle has had the same loving owner for the past 20 years. Just this year the owner sent the car to Midwest Air-cooled & machine and spent $12,322 on rebuilding the brake system with upgraded master cylinder (1,980). Rebuilt the motor, installed new starter, clutch & cable clutch. New throttle cable, replaced oil pump, all fuel lines, engine stripped down and rebuilt 1600 long block installed. Axle gears replaced, gaskets and O-rings. Just to name a few. Receipt in hand for work performed.

Made in August 1963 at VW's Wolfsburg, West Germany factory, this car is dressed in Panama Beige (code 19), the car's paint and trim are in very good order. The bug's bodywork is straight and solid, with Hella headlights. The engine bay is very tidy and the chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body. The car has a sunroof, too.

This Bug rolls on Nexen SB 802 radials, size 165/80R15. Each one is mounted on a body-colored rim topped with chrome moon wheel covers. The wheels and tires are all in very good order.

Out back is a rebuilt 1.6L air-cooled, flat four-cylinder engine. Backing the motor is a four-speed manual transmission.

Inside, the Mesh Brown leatherette (code 84) front seats and rear bench seat look great. The corresponding carpet and headliner are in similar condition. The ivory, two-spoke steering wheel looks great, as do the dashboard with VDO gauges and inner door panels. The car has a floor-mounted shifter and AM radio.

Nineteen sixty-four Beetle models could be identified by a widened light housing on the engine lid over the rear license plate, however the standard model continued to use the old teardrop style to the end of the 1965 model run.

Competition to the Beetle in 1964 was Chevrolet's Corvair.
