Description of 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible |
1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible Bela Barenyi, an 18-year-old Hungarian student, submitted a chassis design for a "Volkswagen" in 1925 and is recognized as designing the basic VW Beetle. Ferdinand Porsche, an Austrian automotive engineer, created the Volkswagen Beetle after receiving a contract from Hitler in 1934 for prototypes. The Beetle's air-cooled flat 4 engine was designed by Franz Reimspeiss, not Ferdinand Porsche. Even with 20 plus million being built to date, he was paid less than twenty dollars for his work. I'm happy to announce we have bugs here at Classic Auto Mall. Oh, certainly not the kind that you would swat at, but these were made in Wolfsberg, Germany, by the millions and infested the USA over the years. This classic 1972 version is in nice condition with some recent work to keep things in order, including new carpet, body seals, a rebuilt carburetor, valve adjustment and valve cover gaskets. So, if you want you can now take this car to our famous test lake, and go for a floating dip, just like the ads! (although we would have no way of getting you back)! Exterior Interior Drivetrain Undercarriage Drive-Ability Nicely cared for, with some recent upgrades and rebuilds, she runs smoothly, and is certainly a bug that will catch your eyes. Classic Auto Mall is a 336,000-square foot classic and special interest automobile showroom, featuring over 500 vehicles for sale with showroom space for up to 1,000 vehicles. Also, a 400 vehicle barn find collection is on display. |
