Description

Up for sale is my 1957 VW Beetle. It has a 1641cc engine with dual kadron carbs and a doghouse fan shroud with no heater outlets. carbs have been cleaned and rebuilt with kaddie shack kits. other than the rebuild all ive done is given it a fresh oil change and strainer. previous owner stated motor has less than 20k on a rebuild, nd it does feel strong. trans works as it should and is strong. this is a PROJECT. only interior it has is old wore out carpet, eats are not in good shape but they are all there and they can be re upholstered. whoever painted it last did not do a good job, aint is peeling on the drivers side and various other places on the car. this bug is very solid. the only known rust is under the battery tray, nd in the front drivers side wheel well (see picture). heater channels are good. all integral parts of the car are good. only a few small sheet metal spots that need to be patched. drivers side window is not installed but I do have the window. it is missing the window regulator. doors open and close very nicely. head lights work (lenses are cracked), ail lights do not seem to work. brake lights work but for some reason stay on for a few minutes after pressing the brake pedal... brakes are fine but could use a bleeding, ometimes the car will pull to either side if you brake hard. all chrome trim pieces have been bondoedsmooth, s well as bumper holes. I was going to drill out all the holes when i strip the paint and bring it back to stock. Car has decklid standoffs on it. key is broke off in the ignition, he back part of key can still be removed and it still works the way it is.
Chassis and body are matching numbers.
I will included a tow bar with the car.
Please call or text me and ask for ANY pictures you would like. my number is 605-381-5271. Thanks, nd i will be updating this ad with any additional info i can think of/learn about.
