Description
This isn’t a basic Cal Look Beetle — it’s a thoughtfully spec’d, enthusiast-built example. The brand-new engine, Weber 44s, 123 ignition, and Rancho gearbox deliver modern driveability, while Feller Shroud with Porsche fan and headlamps, bullet indicators, and BRM wheels retain period-perfect authenticity.
The hidden premium audio setup — Bluetooth, Hertz, Audison, and Pioneer — delivers incredible sound without spoiling the minimalist Cal Look style. Every detail, from the Bernd Newbury interior to the custom rear valance, speaks to quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.
