1974 VW Beetle 1300

TAX & MOT exempt – Fantastic 70's classic

Registered 2nd August 1974

One of my son's classic cars, he's now moved on to another classic and needs to reduce his collection, so this one has to go.

It's an excellent cared for example of this timeless classic.

Good Bits

Fully professionally restored in 2002, all rust dealt with, the car is solid all round.

Four new fibreglass wings.

Full respray in original Cliff Green (L-61A)

Brakes and suspension overhauled in 2018.

1285cc engine, slight oil leak from rocker cover gasket

New carb fitted in 2018, original Solex carb included

Original exhaust has a slight blow

Fitted with an original KAMEi front spitter, and period white 8-spokes.

 

Bad Bits

Drivers seat, plastic trim broken and loose

Both front door cards have speaker holes

Fuel gauge not working, suspect the sender unit ( I'll try and replace if I get time)

Mileage showing 00772, not known when replaced.

History

My son is only the fourth owner in the cars 47 year history, the first and second owners (same family) had the car until 1982, the third owner was a neighbour and purchased the car with 3000 miles on the clock for his wife as an anniversary gift, she owned the car for the next 39 years. She had a full body restoration in 2002, and she parked it up in her heated double garage from 2005 until 2017. In 2018/19 she had the car recommissioned by a local classic car workshop, mainly the brakes and suspension. 

My son is a mechanical engineer and car collector, he buys cars to experience the different era's of motoring history and engineering, and there's nothing built quite like a beetle, he buys them to use and enjoy as his daily driver, then after a few months sells, and moves onto another type.
