1964 VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE CUSTOM COUPE

Details

This 1964 Volkswagen Beetle is a new restoration and is powered by a rebuilt 1600cc air-cooled 4-cylinder engine backed by a 4-speed manual transmission. The entire Bug was dissembled down to the body, and the underside of the body was sprayed with soundproof material, and sound-deadening material was installed throughout the interior. The complete drivetrain, suspension, brake system and steering have been replaced. The Flat-4 engine is paired to a new Freeway Flyer transmission with all-new CV

axles and bearings. The original VW steering box was restored, and new King & Link pins were installed on the 2-inch drop spindles, all attached to a fully restored VW front beam with height adjusters. All wiring has been replaced and all necessary grommets were used on all provisions. The VW's odometer was restored and set at 0000 because of the restoration and now reads 10 miles. The headliner as well as front and rear seats were freshened up and all new carpeting was installed. Additional updates include Wolfsburg West rubber floor and trunk liners. The sunroof is fully functional, along with dash and interior lighting. Most of the old VW hardware was replaced using new Nylok fasteners. The transmission shift linkage was removed restored with all new bushings and parts. A VW pedal assembly was completely refurbished. Gold accents were applied to during restoration to celebrate the one-year 1964 VW Beetle model, which came with a hard sunroof for the first time and was the last year for short windows. The exterior was painted blue with chrome around 15 years ago and gold accents were added during the 2021 restoration. Includes receipts as well as a Lego replica toy.
