This 1970 Volkswagen Beetle was refurbished and modified in Europe before being imported to the U.S. under previous ownership. Finished in the Audi color of Nogaro Blue over a black interior, this Beetle features Classic Touring bucket seats, a MOMO Prototipo steering wheel, a roll bar, Koni shocks, front and rear sway bars, Porsche Boxster front brakes, and Porsche Cup 1-style 17” wheels. It derives power from an over-bored 1.9-liter flat-four engine with twin Weber 40 IDF carburetors, CB Performance intake manifolds and cylinder heads, 94mm Mahle pistons and cylinders, Gene Berg chromoly pushrods, an Engle FK-8 camshaft, a 123ignition distributor, and a CSP Products Python exhaust. This tastefully modified Beetle is now being offered for auction out of California.

This Beetle has been refinished in the Audi color of Nogaro Blue, including a fully powder-coated chassis. It comes equipped with body-colored bumpers, black running boards, dual side mirrors, Hella vintage-style yellow fog lights, a front-mounted oil cooler, a 23-slot engine cover, and Porsche Cup 1-style 17”x7.5” five-spoke wheels. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.

The black interior has been redone and fitted with a roll bar, Classic Touring bucket seats, Sparco safety harnesses, and a three-spoke MOMO Prototipo steering wheel. Other accessories include a Bug-Tech shifter, black rubber floor mats, VDO instrumentation, dashboard-mounted auxiliary gauges, and an under-dash stereo.

Power comes from a replacement air-cooled flat-four engine sourced from a Volkswagen Type 3. It has been rebuilt to a 1.9-liter displacement and features twin Weber 40 IDF carburetors, CB Performance Big Beef IDF intake manifolds, CB Performance Panchito 044 cylinder heads, 94mm Mahle pistons and cylinders, an Engle FK-8 camshaft, Gene Berg chromoly pushrods, 1.4 ratio hi-lift rocker arms, and a 69mm eight-pin counterweight crankshaft. The engine also includes a HARDI electric fuel pump, a 30mm oil pump, a front-mounted oil cooler, a 123ignition distributor, and a CSP Products Python exhaust system. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transaxle with urethane mounts. The suspension features front and rear stabilizer bars, adjustable front axle supports, a steering damper, and Koni shock absorbers. The front brakes have been converted to discs with Porsche Boxster 4-piston calipers.

This sale will include a clean title.

The seller would like you to know: "This 1970 Bug is powerful and has amazing handling. It will keep up with many Porsches in the canyon. Super fun to drive and gets plenty of attention at your local Cars and Coffee."
