This Volkswagen Beetle (1958-1979) got away, but there are more like it here.

1967 Volkswagen Beetle

Sold for $17,500 on 7/14/22

This 1967 Volkswagen Beetle is refinished in Savannah Beige over tan vinyl upholstery and is powered by a replacement air-cooled 1.6L flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes 15″ steel wheels, a roof rack, a Wolfsburg West-sourced front bumper, Bilstein shocks, a two-spoke steering wheel, three-point seatbelts, and a vintage-style Bluetooth-capable AM/FM stereo. The car was acquired by the seller in December 2021, and subsequent work included refinishing the exterior, refreshing the interior, performing a valve adjustment, setting the ignition timing, and replacing the spark plugs, fuel filter, ignition rotor, and distributor cap. This Beetle is now offered with service records, manuals, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The car is said to have been factory-finished in red and acquired by the seller in a shade of silver. The car was subsequently repainted in the current shade of Savannah Beige after dent and imperfection repairs were made. Equipment includes a Wolfsburg West front bumper, a roof rack, a left-side mirror, vented rear quarter windows, and dual exhaust outlets. The seller notes paint chips and dents around the body, and the rear bumper seals are loose.

Black 15″ steel wheels wear polished hub caps and are mounted with Nexen SB-802 tires. Bilstein shocks have been installed.

The dashboard fascia, door panels, and steering wheel were painted to match the exterior, and period-look tan low-back front seats and a matching rear bench were installed along with a replacement headliner and tan squareweave carpets. Additional equipment includes front three-point seatbelts, a heater, floor mats, and a vintage-style AM/FM radio with Bluetooth connectivity. The horn button has been moved to under the dashboard, and the seller notes the front seats are from a different car with the passenger seat assembled from two different seats. An additional set of seats are included in the sale.

The two-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring and frames a 90-mph speedometer and a fuel level gauge. The five-digit odometer indicates 93k miles, and the true mileage is unknown.

The replacement 1.6L flat-four is equipped with a single carburetor. Service in May 2022 consisted of performing a valve adjustment and an oil change along with setting the ignition timing and replacing the spark plugs, fuel filter, ignition rotor, and distributor cap.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the image gallery.

Repair manuals are included in the sale, along with service records and period-style personalized California license plates.
