1966 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic

Here is a nice VW beetle to rat rod or part out.The vehicle currently does not run and is being sold as a parts vehicle. This beetle is titled a 1966 VW Beetle but the vehicle has parts from many different years on it. The pan appears to be from maybe a 70's beetle and is probably not original to the vehicle. The floor boards and pan are in decent shape. A repair was made to the pan above the starter as can be seen in one of the pictures. Another repair was made underneath the battery and there is a small rust hole that can be seen in a picture. The brakes DO NOT have pressure and may require additional parts. The left rear fender was dented and poorly repaired with non-matching spray paint but can easily be replaced. The engine should be considered as NOT running but the block was rebuilt in 2007 by Don's Sport Vehicles as a 1915cc and very few miles were put on the engine until the brakes went out and I got too busy. I could never get the engine tuned correctly so it always had a hesitation upon initial acceleration. You might need a different carburetor/manifold or something; I am not a mechanic and make no guarantees about the engine's condition. The engine did leak some oil during storage. The inside driver's door handle is broken and needs to be replaced. There is some surface rust on top of the chrome headlight rings. Part of the heater channels are missing, nd there are no heat exchangers on the after market exhaust. The buyer will have to arrange for the vehicleto be towed at the buyer's expense. The beetle is being sold As-Is. The beetledoes have a clear Michigan title. Please email me with any questions and I will try to answer them.
