for sale

Price: US $1,000.00
I am selling this 1968 Volkswagen Convertible for my 83 year old father. This has been his little garage project for the 12 years. Something fun to tinker on and take grand kids for ice cream. He has invested over $8000 to get
this car where it is today. Here are some the new features:
June 2006 - a New 1600 cc motor was added (not a rebuild) - 9/10
a New 3 speed transmission was added (not a rebuild) - 9/10
new clutch and new brakes all around 10/10
New speedomotor / cable
February 2005 - New white top - 9/10
New white matching seats and door panels - 8.5/10
New tan carpet kit. - 8/10
New paint / rubber seals around the body - 6/10
Since the installation of the motor, transmission etc, the car has only been driven 2300 miles. The new 1600cc motor is hardly broken in. We just had the car fully serviced November 2016.
The car runs amazing. I would not hesitate to drive this car to California this weekend and enjoy the sun and surf. With very little work and expense, this car could easily be a winning
car at any VW car show.
As I said, I have tried to give you an accurate picture of this car and have tried to disclose any imperfections with it. Please feel free to contact me if you need further information. We have set the reserve
very reasonably on this fun little car.

“This is not a perfect bug: There are some Minor items that could be done. I will list all defects to the best of my ability:Chrome bumpers need to be re-chromed. The windows roll up and down, however the handles are not in great shape. No rust, however my dad did not want to invest in a show quality paint job and it shows. There are some minor scratches and 1 or 2 small dings in the fenders. I would say the paint and body is a 6/10. There is nothing mechanical that needs to be replaced as far as I am aware” |
