The upholstery, arpets, nd door panels are all in excellent condition with zero wear with so few miles on the restoration, nd it's faithful to the way it came originally, ncluding radio delete. The front trunk area is tidy and clean, nd there's enough room for a few overnight bags, ust in case you'd like to have an adventure in your new Beetle.The familiar air-cooled flat four engine is a big part of the Beetle's appeal, ith its bulletproof reliability and familiar whistling exhaust note. During the restoration, his one was punched out to 1641 cc thanks to a set of larger cylinder jugs, ut otherwise it's built to stock specs. It's beautifully detailed with a chrome air cleaner and correct details like the carburetor, versized generator, nd Bosch distributor cap. It starts easily with that distinctive VW starter chatter, dles nicely, nd delivers plenty of performance for around-town errands. Stir the 4-speed manual properly and it's even entertaining to drive, hanks to a stable suspension and decent brakes. It was built to be enjoyed, ith all the suspension components being powdercoated for durability and the floor pans were sandblasted bare and finished with spray-on bedliner material. Just look at the photos! Original steel wheels are nicely restored and offer a factory-correct look wrapped in skinny 160/80/15 Nexen radials.You'll probably find that everyone is your friend when you drive a Beetle, nd they simply don't come much nicer than this.
