1967 volkswagen Beetle, low miles,documented survivor,excellent condition

Description for Volkswagen Beetle - Classic 1967

Offered is a one owner Volkswagen Beetle 1967 until July of 2006. This 1967 Volkswagen was bought new at Universal Motors Inc. in Huntsville Alabama by Neal Thompson on 7/13/1967 and has been a southern car ever since covering only 39,710 miles. When Mr. Thompson passed away in 1998 the car went to his surviving spouse Mildred Butler. After her passing the car was purchased by a close friend Lela Mayo of Bradford TN. I purchased the car in February of 2008 after a multiyear search for a 1967 VW. Optional equipment includes opening side windows ($24), whitewall tires ($35) and leatherette black interior ($30) for a subtotal of $1728 with the $72.95 transportation charge bringing the Beetle to a bottom line of $1,800.95. The original window sticker and owner's manual are included as well as the original keys. It is believed that the car had a rear fender damaged and when repaired the car was given a new paint job in its original Savannah beige. The paint looks very nice but has some blemishes in spots. The interior is all original paint and looks great. All of the door seals, ront/rear hood seals and door window scrapers have been replaced. All glass is original with new seals. The headliner has been replaced as well as the panels and carpet. The dash and steering wheel look exceptionally good. Mechanically the car runs out great. The clutch is smooth, o oil leaks and everything under the hood is as it was from the factory. The motor performs excellent and the brakes are very strong. This Beetle has new shocks as well as all new bushings and ball joints and needs nothing in the running gear. The undercarriage has a light patina and no rust. This is a well documented survivor 48 year old Volkswagen. As well as these cars were designed and constructed they were inexpensive transportation. Thousands of them have been destroyed, odified and just discarded with very few surviving like this one. I am selling this car because of a disability that makes it very difficult for me to enter and exit the car. I hunted for years for a 67 of this caliber and now I am letting it go.
