Description of 1974 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic

I've decided to sell my 1974 Volkswagen Super Beetle convertible. It is Red in color and is in excellent condition for its age. I've owned it since 2001 and had an on-bodyrestoration done in 2002 (new paint, convertible top, rubber seals, carpeting, door panels, front end work, engine work, brakes, gas tank, gas lines, etc). I haven't done much to it since then, other than tune ups and oil changes.

The beetle has always been garage kept. I purchased it from a southern CA family whose daughter used it tocommute to school. It runs excellent and starts every time.

Condition: The Beetle runs great. It definitely gets looks when I take it on the road. Irecommendthat you perform a pre-sale inspection, but if not, here's a detailed description of the car's condition: New paint and rubber in 2002 still looks good but there's some bubbling, dings, and someminor rust spots. The carpets and door panels are like new, but the seatupholstery and rest of the interior are original and looking tired. I had seat covers on but I took them off for the photos to show the original seat condition. The dash is starting to show its age and I removed the stereo with the intention of upgrading but never did. The floor pan under the battery is rusted and will need to be replaced soon. The convertible top and liner are the highest quality (not the cheap vinyl) and still in like-new condition, but the rear bow on the mechanical portion needs to be replaced. Needs new tires and brakes and a few little things like front hood release and rear bumper. I have the hub caps and wheel covers in the trunk.Overall, this is a beautiful convertible Beetle but could use some more updating. With a few updates, this Beetle Convertible could be a show car.
