Description
1965 VW Bahama Blue beetle built in August 64 and registered on 25/ 01/ 1965. - 23, 900 miles (believed to be genuine, the mileage in 2003 was 16k and the car had been off the road for over 10 years).
All mot records show a steady increase to the current 23900. - 1200 single carb rebuild and supplied with spares.
-Runs very very smooth and very reliably.
- original interior with only one minor scratch on drivers seat.
- also supplied white leather covers with matching blue piping included, should the blue/ green interior not be to your taste.
- 12 volt conversion (for better starting) lights, wiper motor, all the usual 12v upgrades. Receipts and evidence to support.
- 4 speed strong gear box no horrible knocking or banging. - the heating and cooling works!! Very well.
- 90% original it has Euro bumpers instead of the usual towel rail style bumpers they where supplied with. Wheels are also colour coded and of course it's 12v. It has been resprayed in its original colour and has been professionally painted by someone who could seriously paint. It's flawless. And hasn't been painted since 2002.
I've spent a lot of time taking care of this car to ensure that the interior and exterior stays immaculate. It's never washed with water and only gets wet when driving to shows. The car is always stored inside a garage. Waxed and polished with the best products available. The chrome work is also treat so it stays bright as possible.
The car was off the road for ten years in '92 and was fully restored in 2002 with a bare metal restoration. I have a full photo album to show the whole process as well and countless folders of paperwork to document everything for this car. Comes with original user manual. Haynes manuals and many other beetle related booklets.
This won top 5 air cooled at all types show 2017. The source of this information comes from the website "how many left". Please check before commenting. Truly a fantastic car and it starts up every time with no issues. Will be sad to see it go but i've enjoyed my time with her.
There aren't many beetles in this great of condition and to this standard. The photos really don't do it justice - it must be seen to be believed! :)
