Equipment
1300, 4-speed, hub caps and trim rings, roof rack, Sapphire I radio, 12-volt electrics.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Engine and carb both rebuilt last year. Presentable and clean paint and chrome but they’re both older, and the right rear fender got knocked at some point because there is a shallow dent and a large gouge in the paint. A few paint chips in the steering wheel but good interior. Plenty of small things to nitpick but, hey, it’s a Beetle. Overall, it’s a solid car.
Market commentary
A solid Beetle with neat period accessories bought right-on for its condition. Excellent, lavishly restored Beetles with the rarest add-ons have appreciated significantly over the past five years or so, but honest driver-quality cars like this one are still out there for entry-level money.
