1959 Beetle Sunroof Sedan For Sale
This wonderful lightly worn 59 Beetle has a great history behind it and has survived the
ravages of time without any major accidents or rust damage and now resides in Arizona
awaiting its next adventure in its life.
The car may have another name, but to me this one is "Blue Jean".
Like your favorite jeans that fit so perfect and stay in the drawer far longer than they should...
a little frayed around the edges and maybe a small patch here and there, but they are just so comfortable
that you dont dare give them up.
The patina is at a point where it could be left alone
or I bet it would buff back up to a shine if you wanted to go that route.
Either way it is just awesome.
Mechanically the car is great, very good runner and has been recently serviced.
Nice to see a fresh fuel filter and good axle boots
Wiring all looks good and original.
Original door panels look great
Headliner was redone at some point in its life

Capri Blue is the color and this is original paint inside.
I just love it.
As time goes on and I get a little older and rougher around the edges I am starting to really
be drawn to these cars that have character. They are only original once and its just cool to see
a survivor like this that has never been modified or restored.
A factory sunroof car on top of it...and in Capri Blue.
This is one I would love to have for myself!
