1964 VW Beetle for sale

Here is a great running and driving classic Volkswagen Beetle for sale. This classic Volkswagen hasn’t been heavily modified like so many of these early Bugs. There are many fun things to do when you own a classic VW Beetle, and everyone smiles when they see this classic bug driving by.

This little VW Beetle has: 
Recent brake job (complete with new hoses/lines and drums!)
New carpet
New correct style floor mats
New seat belts
Newer tires
Rebuilt front suspension

This VW Beetle is nice and original and it starts up and runs great. It has its original 40 horsepower engine and the car hasn’t been modified like many cars of this vintage. There are two hidden items to help increase its speed and performance --a high performance exhaust and external oil cooler located on the firewall in the engine compartment. The floor pans are original and nice with just one repair under the battery. It's hard to find an early to mid '60s Beetle that hasn't been modified, lowered, or otherwise molested. I like the '64 and older Beetles as the vent window frame is at a 90 degree angle with the door like the Beetles all the way back to the early '50s. I think 1965 went to the slanted vent window style that went through the '70s.

This bug is really peppy so I would guess the engine has been rebuilt at some point or the mileage shown on the odometer of 65k is original. It has a surprising amount of zip for a 40 horse. It could just be due to the high flow exhaust that is on the car, but it sounds pretty healthy when you rev it up. There is an external oil cooler mounted to the firewall up by the air vents, so that increases oil capacity. All I can say for sure is that it starts right up and is really responsive.

The rear deck lid still has the original VW Dealer emblem from Greeley Colorado on it just below the license plate. And the rear bumper still has accessory ski mounts attached on both sides. This car has some fun personality traits, and I'm sure it has seen a lot of fun throughout the years.

I don't have the original radio but the car comes with the chrome ornamental plate that goes in front and around the radio. It also has the backing plate for that piece but it is bent up some. It could probably be straightened and used since it goes behind everything and mounts from the trunk and isn't seen. But again the car comes with the original chrome piece for the front of the radio space.

This 64 bug is nice and solid, even under the spare tire, wheel wells, rocker panels, and other areas typically prone to rust. This body is nice and solid.

I priced this Bug well below "Average Retail Value" to make sure you get a good value. You can look up the value at nadaguides.com. Average retail value is listed at $9200 (9/24/2013).

Thank you so much!! Feel free to give me a call anytime if you have any interest or questions.
