1965 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic

Not every car needs to be restored to be beautiful and this is a prime example of that.And character it has in spades!
Take a look at this sweet old ride.A ton of fun for not a lot of dough.
This well worn and tattered 1965 Sedan was pulled from a field and creatively attended to
to make a very unique driver and play toy.
Stock 40 horse engine runs great.Mileage is unknown but the owner states that it is a very fun car to drive and its ready for fun. Motor and trans look decent from below.Recent new push rod tubes installed...so it has been apart and has been serviced to some level at least.
84k miles on the odometer... who knows what the actual miles are.
Roof rack loaded with period yard sale finds, stickers in the windowsslightly lowered stance and a whole lot of style.
The swap cooler on the side is a great period accessory.
Interior is a neat blend of natural fibers and re-purposed blankets and feed bags. Speaker mounted in an old suitcase
Under the front hood is more natual material and a matching vintage picnic basket.
Some fun historic paperwork comes with the car - The original window sticker (or most of it at least).It spent its early days in the South.Port of New Orleans and then delivery in Tennessee
Original tool roll,Service booklet
Headlight grilles are a neat addition.
Nice slightly matte finish shine to it...looks clean, but not glossy.
Stock height in back and slightly lowered up front.
Pop out rear quarter windows.
Wood floorboards and burlap feed sack flooring
Bamboo headliner
Modern tunes tucked in the glove box.
Stock radio still in the dash but not functioning.
Seats are wrapped in Mexican blankets.
No padding on the back springs
Underneath it looks like recent brake lines have been installed.
Tie rod ends look good with complete boots, etc.
The floors have been patched up and the driver side seat rails supported with additional metal supports underneath.
She's crusty underneath for sure, but she is fun and functional just the same.
The car drives nice and solid according to the seller.
All a part of the character I suppose!
