Description

Restored 1966 Volkswagen Beetle Bug
When the work was started on this 1966 Bug, the goal was to create the best little Bug around. Starting with a solid 1966, (one of the most desirable body styles), the work began and the finished product is stunning. The engine, interio and paint are all NEW.So many hours and thousands of dollars have been poured into this little car. The paint is new, shines and is ready to show. The bumpers/trim new, along with the mirrors, roof rack and more. The interior is where the quality shows. It has fold forward, low-back seats (EXTREMELY desirable, similar to that of a 1967), new carpet, new headliner, EMPI shifter and more. The engine and trans is the most exciting part of the build. The engine is a freshly rebuilt 1600, with a dual port, dual carburetor and highflow exhuast. The new engine and trans run strong and it was built with reliability and power in mind. This little bug starts on the touch of the starter and has more power than any other Bug I have driven. Cruise or accelerate at ease on the freeway.
I am huge VW fan and the Volkswagen Beetle or Type 1 as it was called, has cemented itself as one of the all time greats in the history of automobiles. The sheer simplicity, good looks, reliability and practicality made them a strong seller and peoples favorite for nearly 50 years. Over those 50 years there were quite a few tweaks and changes, however the cars always stayed within reason of that original design. The highest quality steel and build quality, and best looking, was from 1965 - 1966. These were the years of the Porsche style glass headlight covers, pre impact bumpers, and slightly larger windows increasing visibility. But not oversized like the 70's cars. The classic 1966 Bug is a still a great car today, and they seem to have been increasing in value and desirability.
Overall, this is a great little Bug. It is being sold as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied, with mileage exempt due to age. All inspections to be done prior to auction close. I wish I didn't have to sell this little '66, but I hope the new owner loves it as much as I have.
sold at NO RESERVE!Good luck!
