1959 UK Rhd Beetle (very rare rhd uk car)

Pre 60 uk cars are getting harder to find &

being a UK car it benefits from being RHD and with Euro spec semaphores that are fully working.

The car had a pan off rebuild in 2017 with many parts replaced and or painted.

New brake lines, Brake shoes and a new 4 inch narrow beam with drop spindles have been fitted too.

The colour of the car is mignonette green & It has great patina.

The car has been fully refurbished and detailed under the bonnet and decklid with the exterior left in its original form. Boasting an original pinstriped tank to match the pinstriped fan shroud.

The engine is a newly built, but run in 1776cc with twin Webber ICT34s. The engine pulls like a train but idles nicely in traffic and is a pleasure to drive. Exactly the right balance in my opinion. At the same time the engine was built I also had the original splitcase gearbox removed and a custom gearbox built to compliment the engine which has made the world of difference.

I'm happy to send over engine specs and gearbox specs to anyone who's interested in the car - along with photos of the build.

The interior is very original with minor repairs to the seats. All the electrics have been gone through to get everything working as it should. It has also now been converted to 12v.

Everything works including the horn and interior light!

The car looks amazing. I am only selling because I have too many other projects. This car was supposed to be a keeper but needs must.

She has always been kept in a heated garage whilst in my ownership.

I have hundreds of photos including the strip down, rebuild, restoration & engine build.

I also have a folder full of paperwork too

I welcome anyone to come and view this fantastic car - I am based in Henley on Thames.  A lot of time and money has gone into this awesome little car.

Asking £17,500

RG9 Henley on Thames

I'm open to sensible, close offers - not looking for trades or px etc.

Thanks for looking
