DESCRIPTION

This 1979 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible sports a vibrant Mars Red exterior that makes a bold impression. With only 61,186 miles on the odometer, this Bug has plenty of life left. The iconic shape is accentuated by gleaming chrome bumpers and trim, creating a classic look that never goes out of style. A crisp white canvas top provides the perfect contrast, ready to drop down for open-air motoring. The 15-inch wheels wrapped in 165/80R15 tires offer a sturdy stance, while the glass rear window ensures clear visibility when the top is up.

White vinyl upholstery adorns the interior, creating a fresh and inviting cockpit. The bucket seats provide comfortable support for zipping around town or cruising down the highway. A floor-mounted shifter for the 4-speed manual transmission puts control at your fingertips. The dash features an aftermarket Sony radio, adding modern audio capabilities to this classic ride. An aftermarket steering wheel gives the driver a custom feel. Despite its compact exterior, the Super Beetle\'s clever design offers surprisingly ample space for driver and passengers alike.

A fuel-injected 1600cc engine powers this Super Beetle, known for its reliability and spirited performance. The AJ147308 engine casting number confirms its period-correct status, putting out 50 bhp - more than enough to motivate this lightweight classic. Bosch fuel injectors and newer plug wires keep things running smoothly. The 4-speed manual transmission offers precise shifts, while the VW transaxle efficiently transfers power to the rear wheels. MacPherson strut front suspension and independent rear suspension provide a well-balanced ride. Drum brakes at all four corners bring everything to a halt when needed.
