LOW ORIGINAL MILES! 1973 VW Volkswagen Red Super Beetle - COMPLETE RESTORATION!!

Description for Volkswagen Beetle - Classic 1973

This is a gorgeously restored 1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle!

CUSTOM PAINT JOB! This paint job ran at least $5,000 and it's in the absolutely stunning Plymouth Prowler Red (orangey-red). When the sun hits it, Watch Out - You'll Get A Lot Of Attention!

Stored in a climate controlled garage for the last 29 years and only driven on occasional weekends, mainly to VW and classic car shows which explains its super low original miles of 56,722 - (that averages to only 1,260 miles per year).

When the custom California restoration was done, there was no rust repair or patching done at all - that's how clean this car was! For those who know old VW's lets face it, that's unusual.

A few minor things can be done/fixed to improve it (I will list those things below) but overall it's in incredible condition and has been pampered all its life.

A super peppy engine makes this little car go, go, go! It drives straight even at 70mph!

Approximately 2,000 miles have been put on the car since its restoration.

Below, are the specifications of this particular car and the improvements that were made.

22.) ...so many upgrades, I may have forgotten a few!

PLEASE READ...BELOW ARE THE MINOR IMPROVEMENTS that you could make to take it to a #1 Weekend Show Car:

1.) Small chip & 1 little bubble on paint by exhaust at the back of the car (see photos)

2.) The lock on the engine door is missing the small metal piece at the bottomthatthe turning part of the lock grabs onto. It will need to be added (nothing big, cheap fix - hopefully you understand my description:)

3.) Plastic trim on bottom side of drivers seat (seat cover plate?) has crack. Could be replaced easily and cheaply (see photos)

4.) Drivers side door floor panel has some missing paint - not sure how this happened - as if someone wasn't careful & they scraped something along it in a few places (see photos). This is only noticeable when the door is opened and you look down but it will need to be touched up or that one strip redone if you're going to show it.

Please remember this is a 45 year old car and even with the restoration, if you're expecting a brand new car, no classic car is for you then.
