1955 vw beetle

1955 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic Additional Info:

This classic and rare oval window has been owned by the current owner for over 35 years and is full of potential.
It was covered outside for about 10 of those years, and garaged the rest of the time, which is the reason for the rust. No rust has gone through.
Was a show car when I got it, but had a 2180 cc engine that was blown up and non-1955 fenders/lights, etc. I put the 1600 cc engine in, replaced fenders/lights, etc. with originals. Never got around to repainting it. The transmission was put in by the previous owner to go with the engine size, for racing. I no longer remember the details of that. So the car shifts a lot faster than a typical 1600 cc.

​-Rear seat: I didn't have a rear seat back. That area was filed with box bass speakers. I had an extra rear seat back from a 1967, so I just set that in there. You can have it.​ (There are a couple of tears in the upper part of the seat, where it rounds over to the back of the seat)
