Vehicle Details

1961 Gulf Blue VW original paint Bug, it was a barn find prior to my purchasing it and hadn’t been registered since 1973 in NY. I have a clean NC Title in hand. True mileage unknown. I purchased from a gentleman that went through the car and fixed all that I’m listing below.

The car has new brakes, roof rack, tmi 2 tone deluxe interior including seat foam/materials, mirror, original hubcaps, engine cover, clutch, cluster, visors, kick panels, axel boots, upper heater channels, front spare well, front left inner fender panel, converted to 12volt, shocks, wipers, speedometer cable, headlight switch, brake reservoir, engine/transmission mounts, starter, battery, window gaskets, wheel bearings and seals. When I brought it home this past year I took it to my local vw mechanic who is the only people I let touch my vw’s. They completely went through the car mechanically and fixed every little thing they could find to be sure it is road ready. I have all receipts from that almost 10 pages of work done totaling just shy of $2,000.00. Happy to share all those receipts that I have. I truly hate to part with him but some family changes are making it necessary. He’s a looker, the original paint patina is super cool and he gets a lot of attention when I have him out and about. I hope to find a new owner that wont’ let him sit in the garage, it’s too great of a car to not be out and about and enjoyed.

Also a new electronic ignition, alternator, cool retro “cheese grater” accessory, new 12 volt 2 speed wipers and motor, custom color seatbelts installed in front, I have seatbelts for the rear but they haven’t been installed. All other parts that were given to me I’ll also pass on to the new owner. I’m absolutely sure I’m forgetting things that have been done to the car, truly too many to mention in this description.
