1958 Volkswagen Beetle

Rejoice VW Fans, for another early desirable 1950’s Beetle has arrived at MotoeXotica Classic Cars and is finished in handsome black exterior! This time, we are pleased to present this 1958 Beetle, 60 years young!

This is an original California car that underwent a light cosmetic restoration to preserve its originality. The car’s handsome black paint and chrome trim are in overall excellent condition but there may be a few minor blemishes visible on close examination. This Bug’s windows are clear and crack-free while its Hella headlights and small taillamps look fabulous.

The car’s bodywork is straight and solid, the car’s beautiful chrome bumpers fit well to the body, the engine bay is quite tidy and the cargo area is clean and has a full-sized spare tire and wheel. It rolls on Coker Classic wide whitewall radials, size 165R15 at all four corners and each tire is wrapped around original, full moon wheel covers.

Under the rear-mounted hood is the correct 1.2L flat four-cylinder engine #1-686207 mated to a four-speed manual transmission. This Bug still maintains its original six-volt electrical system.

Inside, the gray front bucket and rear bench seats are in great condition while the complementary gray carpeting looks satisfactory. The gray headliner is in excellent shape while the original two-spoke steering wheel is in good condition. The inner door panels, complete with map pockets, look very good while the black instrument panel is stunning and contains VDO gauges. This is a radio delete model.

For 1958, the Beetle received a revised instrument panel, and a larger rectangular rear window replaced the previous oval design. The windshield grew larger and parking lights perched atop the front fenders. Inside, a flat accelerator pedal replaced the previous roller style pedal. The radio grille faced the driver and the brakes grew wider.

Competition to this Volkswagen in 1958 included Nash’s Metropolitan.

This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer shows 60 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear, mileage exempt Arizona title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!!
