Powered by an air-cooled flat-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, this 1965 Volkswagen Beetle showcases a coated patina finish over a red and white vinyl upholstery. It has been modified with a lowered suspension, a merged exhaust manifold with J-tubes and a quiet pack muffler, Porsche-style headlamp lenses, swan-neck mirrors, a Euro-style steering wheel, a Pioneer CD stereo, and much more. This distinctly customized Beetle is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Florida.
This example features a clear-coated patina finish, accented by traces of Porsche and Schuco insignias on its sides. It has chrome bumpers with overriders, Porsche-style fluted headlight lenses, swan-neck side mirrors, pop-out rear quarter windows, fender stone guards, VW-branded rear mud flaps, a roof rack, and a rear cargo rack. It rides on Raider-style 15” wheels wrapped in Nankang AS-1 tires up front and Cross Sport SP-9 tires at the rear. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The interior showcases front bucket seats and a rear bench upholstered in red vinyl with white piping, complemented by matching door panels, charcoal carpeting, and a white perforated headliner. Additional features include a two-spoke steering wheel with a Wolfsburg crest center cap, a Euro-style steering lock, Coco-style floor mats, front lap belts, a radio delete plate, and a glove compartment-mounted Pioneer CD stereo connected to rear cargo area speakers. All gauges and electronics are reported to be in proper working order with no warning lights illuminated.
Power comes from an air-cooled flat-four engine featuring a merged exhaust manifold with J-tubes and a quiet pack muffler. The rear wheels are driven through a 4-speed manual transmission. The suspension has been modified with a narrowed adjustable front axle beam, while the rear torsions have been reindexed to achieve a lowered stance. Four-wheel drum brakes facilitate stopping power.
This sale will include a spare tire and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “This is a very unique car, in a great condition. The engine pulls hard. Inside extra clean. Needs nothing.”
