for sale
Price: US $500.00
Price: US $500.00
I am selling my 1972 VW Bug. I have
owned this car for about 4 years. In that time I have mainly used the VW as a
tow vehicle towed behind my Motorhome. I have not had the time lately to
use the motor home so the VW mostly sits in my indoor storage facility. I have
enjoyed and tinkered with this Bug to make it a good looking, fun, economical
and reliable vehicle. It has always been a California car still wearing its
original blue and yellow license plates.
The following is a detailed
description of my Bug.
Mechanical.
It is powered by a great running( I think original) 1600
dual port motor. Do not know how many miles on the motor but it starts, idles
, and runs great with xlint power. All stock except for header with quiet pack
muffler. New carburetor. No pop outs, no
whine..
Has rebuilt front end with drop
spindles and Disc brakes. This car starts, runs, drives and stops great.
Body:
This VW is still wearing its original paint. No wrecks, No
rust, no bondo, no primer. Paint is thin in places, but still very
presentable. Has a couple of minor dings on front hood (no apron damage) and
passenger side rear fender. (see pic)Never thought they were bad enough to
repair and repaint. Spare tire well is perfect. Pan has no rust whatsoever.
Needs rear window rubber replaced.
Interior:
Blue interior is original and in OK shape. Dash pad has a
few cracks . Seats show wear but not torn up. Needs a carpet kit.
Wheels and Tires:
Has a very nice set of Empi style 8 Spoke wheels with new
tires.
Electrical:
Generator is new and works well. All lights work. Radio is
aftermarket cassette player and inop.
Glass:
All glass is good, windows roll up and down fine. Needs rear window rubber seal
Car is currently registered and
insured
Tow bar and magnetic towing lights
go with car if sold for the Buy it Now price
In conclusion, here is a Very clean, original rust free California Volkswagen. Great looking and running Bug with
very nice patina. This is NOT a show car, NOT a restored car. Just a mostly
original 43 year old car that is (IMO) very cool the way it is.
I have set what I think is a very
reasonable buy it now price, and the reserve is set very close to that price.
