Never wrecked, no history of body repairs, needs some work (stuck up right rear power window, infotainment center needs repair or replacement--these usually run about $700 rebuilt, back rotors need to be turned or repaired, power trunk has frayed wire at hinge, tire pressure sensors need battery change), but runs great. Nice looking car both inside and out, very safe car. 2 owners.

For Sale: 1971 Volkswagen VW Super Beetle, $6250 OBO This was the first year of the Super Beetle, with the MacPherson strut front suspension. I purchased the car in August 2014 locally. The car runs well, is currently licensed, insured and VA state inspected. The engine is a remanufactured 1600CC dual-port with a Bocar 34-PICT3 carburetor and 009 distributor. Pretty typical setup for reman. VW engines, though I do not have a record of how many miles are on this unit as it was installed in the car when I bought it. Most folks will recommend going to a factory vacuum-advance distributor instead of the 009 mechanical advance distributor. The 4-speed manual transmission shifts smoothly, doesn’t whine or drop out of gear, and just does what it’s supposed to. The car has a good clutch with no slippage under load, and I would assume it was changed when the reman. engine was installed, but I have no proof of that. The heater channels, floor pans and frame head are in excellent shape with no evidence of prior repairs. I have repaired the only area of rust I could locate. It’s a pretty typical spot for Beetle rust, where the front heater channel meets the driver’s-side inner-fender. I cut away the offending section of inner-fender first, repaired the heater channel underneath with a welded 2”x4” patch, then welded in a new section of metal to complete the inner fender, roughly a 3”x6” patch. All patches and surrounding areas were sprayed with weld-thru primer on interior surfaces prior to welding and the inner fender was undercoated in hopes of offering some future protection to the area. I went over the outer sheet metal with a cheap fridge magnet before I bought the car, and would encourage you to do the same if you come to check it out. The only spot of bondo I was able to find is in the rear apron, where someone must have backed into something at some point. It was repaired before the car was painted last, whenever that was. The front end is straight and there are no creases in any of the unibody frame structure, which would be indicators of a front-end collision. The strut towers have no rust whatsoever. Body-wise, the car is in very good condition – I wouldn’t have bought it otherwise. I knew it needed a good revamp of the mechanicals, but I enjoy that stuff far more than bodywork! Please see below for the list of new & used parts installed and those also provided with sale. New Parts Installed/Provided: --Complete tune up with new plugs, wires, distributor cap, points, condenser and generator V-belt. --New fuel pump, fuel filter (located above rear axle) and all new soft hoses. -- Rebuilt carburetor (by me, Mid-America Motorworks kit) --Cleaned heat riser tube and reinstalled intake with new heat riser gaskets --New valve cover gaskets (changed when valves were adjusted to necessary 0.006” clearance). --Oil regularly changed (20W-50) with oil strainer magnet added. --Transmission oil changed Feb. 2014 (80W-90 dino). --Top-Line front disc brake conversion kit (new TRW calipers, rotors, FAG bearings, seals and braided stainless hoses). (Saved original drums and backing plates of new owner wants to keep them; old hydraulic parts discarded.) --New rear brake drums, shoes and soft hoses. --New rear outer bearings, inner & outer seals. --New rear shocks. --New brake master cylinder (Brazilian TRW), German “blue” braided soft hoses, and brake switches in master cylinder. --New inner and outer tie rods (Brazilian) and center link (Brazilian). --New black polyurethane frame head-to-sway bar bushings and sway bar-to control arm bushings. --New idler arm bushing (brass), w/grease fitting installed. --New steering shaft (the shaft w/two u-joints) and new upper/lower dust boots. --NOS West German ball joints. --New MacPherson strut inserts (Boge brand). --New headlight switch (Mid-America Motorworks). --New dashboard heater/vent inlets. --New fan box outlet wraps. --New fuel tank nozzle-to-body gasket. --New RH door light switch. --New battery (Sept. 2014). --New “Save-My-Bug” oil dipstick temperature probe. --Provided with sale: New “Cal”-style front windshield seal (to match other seals without chrome strips). --Provided with sale: New fender beading and front & rear taillamp-to-fender seals. --Provided with sale: New spare throttle cable. --Provided with sale: New spare clutch cable. --Provided with sale: New engine bay seal. Used Parts Installed/Provided: --Aftermarket CD player (dash cut for aftermarket radio by a previous owner, I just upgraded the radio.) --Spare tire-to-windshield washer bottle pressure line. --Retractable VW beetle seat belts (fronts installed, rears provided but not installed). --Provided: Used correct ’71 rear decklid (Decklid installed on car is from a ’72, and was painted with the rest of the car. Used decklid would have to be painted before installation.) The only services I trusted to outsiders were the front-end alignment and VA state inspection. The previous owner had the interior almost completely redone with new front and rear factory seat covers, headliner, and dash pad – I have documentation of that work from the previous owner. Carpeting appears original, but is not in bad shape at all for the age. Tires are 80-85% tread. Previous owner also had all glass seals replaced with the exception of the front windshield seal. Items that would need addressed: The car lightly “marks its territory” with a few drips of oil per week; I keep a drip pan under the engine. The most likely source of the leak is the oil cooler o-rings, and I have new o-rings to be installed, but never got around to dropping the engine to do that.A previous owner removed the thermostat, mounting bracket and vanes from underneath the fan shroud. I have collected all of these parts (new thermostat w/used bracket, used vanes and linkage) to be installed when the engine is pulled.There are (3) spots of surface rust, LH front wing, RH door, and RH rear wing. The RH rear wing is also lightly dented. These are surface rust only, not cancer! See photos.A previous owner put a new muffler on the engine, but it does not have the required hook-up for the intake pre-heater hose. Since the pre-heater tube is not installed, this has led to icing of the intake on humid mornings on several occasions. This is a common problem for Beetles since the intake runners are so long, and the lack of the hook-up being available on aftermarket mufflers is also a common problem. My asking price is $6250 OBO. Based on the list of new parts alone, I think you can do some rough math that would show what I’m asking is not completely ridiculous. However, I know cars are only worth what the market will pay regardless of what I have in it, so I am open to reasonable offers. No warranty is expressed or implied. The car is sold in “as-is” condition with clear title, where currently located on a first-come, first-served basis. I will not finance, ship the car, or accept trades. I prefer cash, but would accept a cashier’s check (provided it clears before vehicle pickup). No personal checks, please. Bill of Sale will be provided. Any further questions can be directed to me at (five-four-0) 922-2(nine)64 or e-mail thru Ebay. Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the Ebay auction early if it sells. Thanks for looking!
