1961 VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE CUSTOM SLIDING RAGTOP

This refurbished and modified 1961 Volkswagen Beetle custom sliding ragtop is powered by a replacement 1.6-liter flat-4 engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The engine features an electronic ignition and an aftermarket exhaust system as an addition to the engine. Body modifications included removing the fenders, custom headlights and taillights, extending the front axle, adding 15-inch steel wheels and a cloth sunroof, and lowering the car. Braking is handled by four drum brakes, which work well with the weight of this car. Finished in brown, the orange vinyl interior has color-coordinated door panels and dashboard, a custom roll cage, Hurst shifter, fire extinguisher and Bluetooth-capable speakers. The rear seats have been removed and wood slats have been installed over new carpet. Recent maintenance included new axle boots, valve gaskets, plugs and sump plate, as well as a Ross Wulf billet distributor hold-down, new fuel feed hose and fittings, four new Excelsior tires, a Bilstein link and king pin rebuild for the front end and a transmission rebuild. In addition, the outer tie rod was replaced, the drums and brakes were redone, and the wiring was inspected.

Professionally built with a replacement 1.6-liter flat-4 engine and a 4-speed manual transmission. Features a custom roll cage, aftermarket exhaust and electronic ignition.
