1971 Volkswagen Other

71 VW Type III squareback wagon.Original accident-free California car with solid 99% rust-free body-only a few small rust bubbles or dings on the entire vehicle.Paint is original color and in very presentable condition, all glass is original.Strong running 1600 cc motor was converted from fuel injection to dual Weber carburetors with dual exhaust installed. Car starts instantly from cold.After a brief warm up, car accelerates surprisingly quickly and smoothly through 1st to 2nd gears, 3rd gear is quirky and there is often a delay before it engages - I understand this is common for automatic {auto- stick} transmission cars.Brakes and hoses are new as are all shock absorbers and tires.Steering is tight with little play and ride is solid with no rattles or shakes.Odometer,clock and horn are inop but speedometer,wipers,fuel,turn,emergency signals and locks all work well.No radio. Overall vehicle is reliable and fun to drive with light steering and quick acceleration. Please keep in mind the age of vehicle as there may be other minor imperfections that may have been overlooked in this description.Any questions should be asked before bidding.Vehicle is sold AS/IS with no return or warranty.
