I'm selling my 1970 Volkswagen Beetle convertible. This is NOT a Superbeetle, this is the more desirable "flat windshield" version. The car is in very good cosmetic and mechanical condition. The paint has a few small blemishes, such as some clear coat cracks on the hood and a few small stone chips here and there. The top does have a few small tears, but is still usable. I do have a cover that goes on the top while it is down, which is almost brand new. Headliner is in great shape. Windows and windshield are all solid and do not have any chips or cracks. Heat works very well for an old air-cooled VW. Upholstery was also redone about a year ago. Installed a backdated steering wheel, complete with Wolfsburg center button. Also installed a "retro-look" radio that looks like the original radio, but is AM/FM and has an auxiliary cable for iPod, etc. Upgraded seat-belts to retractable units, which are much more comfortable and easier to use than the stock units. Refinished the wooden shift knob, running boards, and dash panels to freshen them up. Added an MG tachometer that looks nice in the car, but seems to have some issues from time to time. It needs to be taken out and looked at. I also added new chrome fender stone guards and new chrome front and rear bumpers - the front bumper has a small dent which is not really noticeable, as it is behind the license plate. All floor pans are very solid, it is very structurally sound and nearly rust free. One other small item to point out - there is no passenger side mirror included with the sale. Engine has been upgraded to a 1600 Dual Port, which has much better performance than the stock 1600 single port. The engine was recently rebuilt - less than 1,000 miles on the engine since the rebuild (please note: the engine IS installed and running in the car. I simply included the picture of the engine next to the car to show that it was indeed removed and rebuilt). There is NO slop at the crank pulley, which is a common problem with these motors that signifies serious internal engine component wear. I also added recently rebuilt dual Weber ICT carburetors for improved throttle response and a Tri Mil muffler/header system, which greatly improves the exhaust sound and engine performance. 4 speed manual transmission shifts well through all the gears - all shift bushings recently replaced. If you are looking at a car where these have not been replaced, it is very likely that it will be very hard to shift and will grind through the gears. The car has been upgraded to front disk brakes and still has drums on the rear. It starts, stops, runs and drives very well. Clean Missouri title in my name. The odometer shows just over 61,000 miles, which are believed to be original miles. Overall, this is a very nice example of a 1970 VW, but since it is a 45 year old car, it does have some minor blemishes. I would rate it at a 7 out of 10. Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions, would like any more information or need to see any more pictures. If you are local, I'd be glad to set up a time with you to take a look at the car in person. To see a video of the car driving and shifting through all 4 gears, please view this video on YouTube. You will see that it accelerates nicely and shifts smoothly through all the gears with no crunching, etc. Get your own valid XHTML YouTube embed code To see a video of the car idling and revving, please view this video on YouTube.

Here we have a nice little VW with the fantastic little 2.0 liter motor and an automatic transmission, it runs and drives like a top, it would make a great first car for a teenager. It is 15 years old and has a few flaws, but overall a solid little car. The sunroof works great, has a few little dings but overall a solid little bug.
