1955 VW GP MK1 Beach Dune Buggy

 

For sale is my SWB Mk1 GP Beach Buggy. built on a 1955 Beetle chassis and finished in attractive pale yellow with black vinyl interior.

 

The car was originally built in the late sixties and underwent a full restoration in 2006. including a thorough engine overhaul. It's hardly been used since.

This is an amazing classic-looking buggy which has had thousands spent on it over the years to keep it in tip-top condition.

 

It has rare. original banded steel wheels fitted with brand new wide tyres all round. which look really great. There's a full chrome dress up kit on the engine which is fitted with 1600cc twin port heads and great sounding twin bazooka alloy exhausts. The floors pans are painted gloss black and are rust free. as they were replaced when the car was restored. The GP fibreglass shell is in great condition and well looked after.

 

The classic interior has new black race-style classic bucket seats plus a matching rear bench.

 

The number plate 819 GRE is original to the car and has been valued at £1. 00. It might be of interest to anyone wanting a non-dating plate ?

 

It is both MOT and tax exempt. and insurance is cheap.

For safety and re-assurance. it does have a current MOT valid to Nov 12th 2013 and is taxed as a historic vehicle which is free of charge.

 

Recent works on the car include:

 

Exterior/Interior

New tyres front and rear

New classic cobra seats on runners

New stainless roll bar

New Manx style stainless windscreen

New stereo speakers in the rear

Rear seat bench

Sony CD/Radio head unit

New Mountney leather/alloy steering wheel and boss

New Le Mans style fuel filler

New black & silver number plates

 

 

Engine

New HT leads. spark plugs. carburettor. K & N air filter. fuel lines and fuel filter. Bosch coil. In the last 500 miles it's had £1500 + spent on engine. suspension and other items to get all up together.

 

This is a very well maintained buggy. kept garaged all through its' life. I have owned it for last 4 years and am selling due to lack of time to use. You'd be hard pressed to find a better one. Viewings are welcome and I'm sure that you won't be disappointed. Ready to drive away and use.
