 A VERY reluctant sale of my restored Tax exempt :) 1972 Volkswagon Beetle/Bug after finding out my new house doesn't have anywhere to store it. I literally can't believe it and will not leave it out in the elements so it has to go to someone with a garage or somewhere to store it.

As you'll see from the photos its a stunning example of a professional restoration. Its had no expense spared when it comes to making sure it carries on looking stunning as well as being safe and road worthy.

I literally cant believe i'm writing this as i've just purchased the vehicle 4 weeks ago from Scotland and its just yesterday come back from a specialist VW restoration company (Moores) in Clevedon. Somerset. I was just about to go on a road trip which involved a ferry to Bilbao. nbsp; North Spain and then cruise back through France along the coast.

It's just this week had almost 1K (no expense spared) of work done on the mechanics to make sure it was up to the job of all the road trips I had planned. :(

Its just had:
New clutchNew Gearbox mountsNew Gearbox release bearingNew SealsWooden steering wheel added
And a good check over with a fine tooth comb

And before that its had £££thousands spent on:

2" lowered rear spring plateFull rewireAlt conversionAll new rear brakes and master cylindersFront wheel bearingsShocks all round (sprayed rear shocked)Ball jointsSteering dampers
New hide away exhaustNew rear tyres (Toyota)2" narrowed front beamScat quick shifterOil temp & volt gauges addedFront discs brakes


And here is all the spec of the car:

Engine:
The engine is the original 1200 engine which shows with the mileage. The engine is like a tank. it starts first time and just keeps on going. It's never given me any trouble in the time i've owned it. I sat in a 2 hour queue coming back from Croyde the other day and had no trouble or spikes in oil temp. Its be described by the garage as "A stunning example of an original VW engine. no leaks and sounds beautiful". :)

Exterior:

Mango Screen paint in excellent conditionFront and rear full chrome bumpersAll chrome detailingSloped headlights from earlier modelEarlier rear deck lidRunning boardsOriginal VW bonnet badgeChrome circle door pin drivers side mirrorWide front archesPassenger side sloped arialFront fog light (Not currently connect but an easy job)Water jets workingCenterline wheelsBaby dome hubs2" lowered spring plateUSA Spec rear lightsSingle pain from windows

I have front drop spindles that haven't been fitted that will come with the car to cushion the ride upfront.


Interior:

Leather rear seatsArm rests both sides on front seatsLeather door cardsLeather parcel shelfWooden 15" steering wheel :)Sony Head unit with Aux input for iPod. iPhone or MP3 players2 x 6x9s in leather parcel shelfChrome ash tray and dash grillWiper and washer jet dials workDurable black/dark grey carpetsChrome side window winders

I think i've covered off as much as I know.

I hope you fall in love with it as much as I did. :)

If you've any question or require a photo of a certain area of it please ask.

I have photos of when it was in a show and shine also so message me if you want to seen these.

Have a nice day!

The bug will be at VW shows and advertised elsewhere so i'll be able to pull the advert at any time.
