Car description

The split rear window beetlesare rare andhighlysought after, hey have been for quite some time. Inrecent years the values have been risingprettyfast and you rarely see them become available for sale. The restoration ofthis Zwitterwasperformed someyears ago, utas you see itlooks great. It wasrecently mechanically refreshed. The paintapplied was Glasurit and shows incredibly well. Thereare no signs of rust anywhere.It drivesflawlessly and correct as it should. All thelights, linkers and electricalfunction as it should. The chrome is in excellent condition for its age.The trims, andles, nd most of the chrome on this beetle seem to be original to the car except for the bumpers which have been replaced.The bumpers we found the car with also go with the sale, hich may be the originals?but presented some flaws and manual repair taking away from its beauty. The panel fitment on this Zwitteris very good, ll theweather strippingon the car looks like new as we understand the carwas alwaysgaraged. The gas tank is the original one with the small cap and indentation right on the tank. The interior is superb and shows as new,demonstrating a high level of quality workmanship.The clock on the glove box is quite rare to see. The steering wheel is unique and a nice touch, ot sure if it isgenuine as I am told one has to take it apart to find out. It also comes with a very nice Bekowa roof rack. This beetle was owned by an avid collector that actually possessedtwo split windows when he parted. Both were imported by him many years ago from Europe.This is a Kilometers car and was his pride and joy. It one of the last Zwitters everproduced from what we have researched via Vin records available. The oval windows came right after the production number of this great example. His wife says he hadsome friends with the same fever for these vehicles but never reallywent to any events or gatherings. It was just an individual passion.Therefore this is one that has been flying completely under the vintage VW worlds radar, ntil today. The vehicle comeswith a clean Florida title and ready for its new home. Please contact me with any questions you may have. PPI inspections are welcome. We reserve the right to end the auction at any time, e are a dealer and could be sold locally at any given moment. Thank you very much for your interest. Best regards, br> Ivan 305.970.5825
