1959 Beetle Factory ragtop fully restored matching pan and body
1959 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic Description
Fully, lovingly restored between 2016 and 2018.
Super solid and reliable driver, with fresh paint and fresh mechanicals. Paint, engine and interior were done by local professionals (3 different outfits).
I lowered it front an adjustable front beam and drop plates in the rear, but the car can come up to stock height on these parts. (I understand lowered Beetles aren't for everyone)
Front disc brakes since I wanted reliable stopping power, brand new wiring harness because VW wires from 1959 don't age gracefully in Arizona. All lights and dials work.
I also switch to a Porsche 356 generator, meaning this car puts out 12 volts and charges properly. Engine is a hopped up 40 hp engine, it has gone from a 1200 cc to a 1385 cc.
All new window seals, door latches and striker plates, and much, much more.
Happy to take it anywhere for an inspection, I can also take additional pictures. This is a great, reliable driver but with 2 other antique vehicles to my name: I need to sell one and focus on the two others. Ask any questions, I will do my best to answer quickly.
Clear AZ title in my name. The pan and body match, registering this car is as easy and simple as it can be.
**I have added pictures of the underside of the pan. As shown some damage to the outer skin of the passenger side heater channel. Since I don't drive this car in the rain, I opted to leave it as-is**
