1979 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible

Description

This 1979 Volkswagen Super Beetle represents the final year of the iconic VW in the USA, and so we like to see them done with some added distinction. The purple paint is not a factory feature, and in fact, the level of gloss and shine you'll see is something even the Germans couldn't provide. So when your convertible looks candy-coated like this, you just know it's going to look awesome on a sunny day drive. The white convertible top and white convertible boot mean this looks terrific against the whitewalls no matter if the roof is up or down. Nice chrome bumpers, straight Super Beetle trim, a clean bucket seat interior, and Riviera-style wheels bring together an attractive total package. So check out the full details of a Super Beetle that gets all the right kind of attention.

As cool as this one looks, the heart of a Beetle's appeal is its string-driving nature. So we're glad to see the date-correct 1600cc powerplant under the hood. It means you get the largest displacement of the series, and in this car, the fuel injection was replaced by a carburetor that can make for easier at-home maintenance. There's even a new electric fuel pump on this one. So it really lives up to the hardy and fun nature you expect from the VW flat-four. Plus, with Super Beetle's improved suspension, modern touring tires, and the control of a four-speed, this is a particularly enjoyable drop-top. Call today!!!
