1977 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic

Beautiful and rare 1977 VW Beetle in Marino Yellow with white vinyl interior including a white vinyl top liner. This numbers matching car originally had a white vinyl convertible top, recently replaced professionally with a black Stayfast Canvas top from Jbugs in Southern California. This convertible spent most of its life in the Bay Area of California up until 2014. It has spent the last 5 years in Utah which is a very dry climate. The chassis and body parts are remarkably clean. This is an almost 100% rust free Beetle.
Several upgrades have been installed to make this car as wonderful to drive as it is to look at. In addition to the black top (very difficult to keep a white top looking clean), this car has been upgraded with a 4 wheel disc brake kit, professionally installed, from Jbugs. No more pumping the brake pedal hoping and praying the antiquated drums will stop the car. These discs are solid, the Beetle stops on a dime, no pulling to either side. Also, the troublesome fuel injection system has been replaced with a standard carb system, professionally installed, from Jbugs. The carb kit is a dual port with a single Solex style down draft carb. It's matched to an electric fuel pump specifically designed for this conversion. An original air cleaner, with hot air intake, has been matched to the carb to give it a totally original look and feel.
This Beetle has a new stereo, its original white tonneau boot cover, a solid jack and spare. It has had one respray in its original Marino Yellow (code 20A) and all of the painted metal, inside and out, is the same color yellow. New suspension parts recently installed including shocks and bushings. Also H4 headlights so you can see where you're going at night. Includes vinyl mats and an inline battery charger to keep the battery fresh if not used regularly.Car starts quickly, idles nicely, enjoys full power, both the steering and suspension are tight. This Beetle provides a true VW driving experience without the typical worries often found in a 40+ year old car.
