Car description |

I purchased this partially restored 55 VW in May of 2005 from a well-known VW and Porsche collector in Memphis Tennessee, Dr. Mac Jones which he purchased from a Washington collector who purchased and brought it out of Canada in the late 90’s. (Documentation can be provided to new owner) He restored and rebuilt the motor, transmission and break system among other things.
I flew in to Memphis in May of 2005 and drove the VW home to Denver without a problem and spent months investigating Volkswagens in preparation of total restoration which was started in late 2005. A full photographic history of the restoration is available upon request. The full restoration took over a year and I was deeply involved in it, I also have many of the original invoices and the total restoration cost was over twenty-seven thousand dollars. The car was completely disassembled and restored as you can see from the photographs, the exterior and the total interior was restored to the original specification. I was relentless in the effort to maintain all originality and even had the interior clothe upholstery set imported from Germany. You can see in the photos of the interior where the upholstery installer install a white headliner. I had the headliner removed and replaced with a gray one as was the original. You will probably not find a more accurate restoration any ware.
See what was said about the car when I bought it. This is the text from the original eBay listing of 2005. See photograph, “Rare 55 Canadian Big Sunroof Beetle”
There is no warranty given or implied, the car is being sold as is.
Enjoy the photos and see the originality of this fine 1955 Bug. See all attached and ask questions. The Bug is ready to drive any ware. All restoration photos are available upon request and there is a lot.
