Description of 1958 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic Ragtop

1958 Bug. Original ragtop car from the factory. As you can see it is a sharp looking car. Bought last year but never got around to using it. Have a couple motorcycles and an old Chevy which take most of my time, so decided it's time for this to go. Restoration work was done by prior owner... Paint shines very well but does have some cracking in a couple spots, looks fantastic from a few feet back. Interior is excellent. Really sharp color combination. Bug is also lowered which looks amazing on these old bugs. Ragtop slides very smooth and canvas itself is in great shape. Glass is all good, has a nice tint, and seals are good. Runs, drives, stops. Engine has good power, no abnormal smoking or anything like that. It's been sitting for the past year or so, which means it would definitely benefit from a tuneup, which I will try and get to over the weekend.... But it does still run drive and stop as it is. It has a straight shot exhaust so it has a really nice and fairly loud hot rod sound which compliments the look. I have a regular exhaust as well and can include it with the sale if you want it. Shifts good and clean, no popping out of gear. Floors could use attention with some patches, very simple fix if its something you wanted to do. The edges are solid so it should be just plopping in and tacking the new metal. Heater tubes are all in excellent shape as well, definitely not a rot bucket by any means. Its a ragtop so obviously she got caught in rain a couple times over its last 60 years, which is why the floors on these have issues. This is a very early ragtop. Not many 50's bugs out there anymore, let alone ragtop. Only going up in value.
