Description
1964 Volkswagen Beetle - Numbers Matching, Steel Sunroof, Almost Original Condition Car
I purchased this car and was given the following information from the previous owner.
Car was purchased in Phoenix Arizona from the original owner. It is in original condition meaning the engine, transmission and body panels appear to all be original. The car was inspected and it was determined that it has never been in a front or rear end collision as the front and rear apron are original and have not been repaired. It does have some body repair on the passenger side near the front fender and the passenger door has some rust bubbles as well as some rust on the body above the running boards. The pan has some rust under the new 12volt battery and otherwise appears to be rust free. I noted the scratches and chips; please see pictures.
The car's 54,000 miles were told to be original and the car at one time had one paint job to Mango Green and apparently had the interior restored. It does not appear to be the typical TMI type of interior but of a higher quality. The car was stored for many years in a nice dry garage at the owners home and was rarely driven. He passed away and the car was sold by his son. The title shows that it was first registered in April 1964 and the cost of the car was $1595 and showed 0 miles. All Hella Lights are still in place and new clear turn signal assemblies are included with the car. All lights work, horn and turn signals as well.
Gas tank was cleaned and new fuel sender unit installed. New brakes and brake hoses, tune up including new belt, filter, valves adjusted, timed, axle boots and completely gone through by 35 year VW Master Mechanic. This car starts right up and drives excellent. So much fun and with the sunroof and new roof rack just adds to the overall excitement of the car. The steel sunroof is a very rare feature.
Car will be sold with Clear Arizona Title. I am selling many of my classic cars to help pay from my daughters very expensive College; I bought this recently to go with my 1966 13-window bus; very nice example of a classic bug that someone will really enjoy; especially for such a low price. I explained the car to the best of my knowledge with the information I was given and encourage you to come see and drive. This is a 53 year old car so please understand it has its creaks and leaks. Thanks for looking.
