This VW is completely turn key. It is fully street legal, is plated and insured and driven regularly on the road and for shows. Very light and easy to drive and streetable, but high HP is there at an instant when you want it, this car does not hesitate in that area. With that said, it is not a kids car. It is low, very light, and powerful. it is a rare body to find in this sort of shape. This car spent many years of its life as a college vocational tech car before it was restored and modified, but thankfully the body was not abused or chopped up. Comes with a second full set of Centerline style rims and tires. Titled here in Colorado as a 2003, insured as a 1970 VW.

I also have a brand new Holley 48 IDA dual carb set with tall manifolds all new in the box that can be discussed as a separate sale if someone wants to not run a turbocharger. Turbo really makes this thing scream though and its a huge conversation piece to say the least. As you can see she clears 100 MPH here at high altitude in the 1/4 mile.

Any questions please feel free to ask and I will answer what I can. Great fun car, just trying to free up some room.

Vehicle located in Rifle, Colorado, not sure why it is showing Denver area.
