(630) 567-0066(630) 567-0066 Vehicle Original VIN : 3527881 1962 Custom Vintage VW Beetle Ragtop with Great Mods - Air Ride, 1835 Engine
I am pleased to offer this very cool 1962 custom vintage VW Beetle ragtop. Body off chassis restored with every nut and bolt replaced – done in approx. 2014. Mileage since being built is only approx. 5,000 miles – car is super reliable.
Car is a ’62 ragtop on a ’62 chassis and features a ’58 oval window rear top section welded in for a great nostalgic look. Mileage on the odometer shows 93,516+/- but actual mileage is unknown. VIN # is 3527881.
This bug features 4 wheel disc brake conversion by Speedway Motors. The car rides on a full Arc Weld air ride setup with manual 4 corner controls in the cabin. It has a narrowed 6” beam in the front and adjustable rear spring torsion plates.
Other important mods:
– New West Coast Metric wiring harness
– Engine is a Keith VW built 1835 with dual port heads
– Engle street cam
– Pertronix electronic ignition
– Weber 46 single carburetor
– A1 Lowdown stainless steel header system
– Benco Freeway Flyer gearbox with billet internals
– Car cruises comfortably at 60-70 mph
– 12 volt conversion
– Klassic custom wheels
Interior is gorgeous Sew Fine material top to bottom with all stainless trim and a fully functional locking rag top. Paint is beautiful in a 2 stage metallic blue.
Car has never seen rain. Turns heads everywhere, multiple show wins and super reliable and fun to drive.

Personal thoughts:This classic offers a great VW nostalgic look but with a reliable and quick drivetrain, brakes, suspension etc. Roll that ragtop back, take it out and have some fun!!
