1965 Volkswagen Beetle

This 1965 Volkswagen Beetle was purchased by the seller in 2014 and underwent a multi-year restoration under current ownership. Finished in Ruby Red over gray upholstery, it is powered by an air-cooled 1,776cc flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes a 12-volt electrical system, a single Solex carburetor, dual-port cylinder heads, drum brakes, 15″ steel wheels, a manual sunroof, pop-out rear quarter windows, chrome bumpers, a cabin heater, crank windows, and an AM/FM radio. Service in preparation for the sale consisted of changing the oil, servicing the left-front wheel bearing, and adjusting the carburetor and valve clearances. This Beetle is offered at no reserve by the seller in Texas with in-process restoration photos, spare parts, an EMPI tool kit, and a South Dakota title in the seller’s name. The body was blasted to bare metal under current ownership before it was refinished in its factory shade of Ruby Red, per the seller. Exterior details include a driver-side mirror, quarter vent windows, polished stainless steel vent shades, a manual sunroof, pop-out rear quarter windows, front and rear gravel guards, and chrome bumpers with overriders. The seller states that the sunroof requires manual assistance to operate.
