STK 2565 1965 Volkswagen Beetle This 1965 Volkswagen Beetle is a great example of one of the most popular cars of all time. It is basically original, but did receive a re-spray of bright Red earlier this year. Note - all of the black accents are removable vinyl pieces. The factory red vinyl interior shows well for its age. True, there are no air conditioning, power seats or power locks â€" but the pop-out rear windows are very cool! Our...Beetle is powered by a 40HP 1200cc flat four. The carburetor is a replacement Solex unit that looks to be a model 34PICT-3, a common factory carb on this model. It is fitted with an electric choke for ease of starting. All factory 6-volt electrics have been converted to 12-volts. The 4-speed fully-synchronized transmission shifts smoothly and four-wheel drum brakes perform well. Suspension is stock and 15" Volkswagen road wheels (w/hubcaps/trim rings) mount nice radial tires. There is some surface rust on the undercarriage, but the chassis appears to be structurally sound. This is a classic "Bug" that someone is going to have a lot of fun with. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
