This Volkswagen Beetle is finished in red over a gray cloth interior, and a refurbishment carried out under prior ownership included a repaint, interior updates, and engine work. The car was acquired by the seller in 1988 out of Oregon and is powered by an overbored 1.8-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Additional features include a quartz clock, a cassette stereo, a CB radio, front bucket seats, chrome bumpers, and dual exhaust outlets.
The body was repainted in red as part of the aforementioned refurbishment performed under previous ownership. Features include rubber-topped running boards, polished side moldings, side mirrors, dual exhaust outlets, and chrome bumpers with bumperettes. The front vent windows and polished window trim were removed under previous ownership, and the seller notes scratches on the left front fender and engine lid.
Silver-finished 15″ steel wheels wear trim rings, VW hub caps, and Kumho tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel drums.
The interior features front bucket seats, a rear bench seat, and door panels upholstered in gray cloth along with black flooring and a body-colored dash. Additional equipment includes a Realistic CB radio, a Mistubishi cassette stereo, Pioneer speakers, front lap belts, and sun visors. The seller notes that the door limiting straps are missing.
A leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel fronts a black instrument panel housing an 80-mph speedometer, a VDO 7k-rpm tachometer, and a quartz clock. The five-digit odometer is said to be inaLurate and reportedly shows 54k miles. True mileage is unknown.
The replacement 1.8-liter flat-four was overbored under previous ownership and features an electronic ignition and fuel pump along with dual carburetors. The electrical system has been converted to 12-volts, and an oil change and inspection are said to have been performed within the last year.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle.
