1963 VW Convertible For Sale

The look and stance of this car are just awesome and the quality of the work is very very nice.

The wide wheels in back give it some muscle...the European style bumpers keep it clean
and the color combo of the paint and interior are classy and eye-catching.

Very mild changes over stock...such as the shaved hood emblem and front turn signals.

Narrowed front beam tucks the wheels in nice and deep and allows for the front end to be nice and low.
The Euro bumpers and headlights look great.

Fluted headlight lenses and bright chrome... front turn signals are wired through the parking light bulb.

Very sweet Hamburg germany hood crest is a unique touch.

Glass is all excellent, runner seals all new along with the trim.

These are original Empi "Sprint Star" wheels that have been wonderfully restored and feature the proper center caps.

Wide wheels in the back look sooooo cooool !!
Tires are excellent by the way on all four corners

Very smooth and clean with the Euro bumpers and matching amber topped taillight lenses.
Great personalized plate too!

These are the Hella units too...not the cheap aftermarket lenses that fade in a month!

Accessory light under the plate light is another neat little deal.

Crap! Houston...we have a problem!
Looks like we bottomed out on a curbstone here...chipped the paint up pretty good on the inside...
lets look outside and see what we have going on.

Yup...thats a little dent...its been touched up so it is not wildly noticeable
and being down low it would be a simple thing to have this repaired and spot painted in.

Very impressive, and it runs as good as it looks!

There is some paint blistering on the rear apron from when the engine was first installed and
this should probably be repainted to be at show level again.
Its barely noticeable with the decklid closed.

Love that ride stance...classic and purpose driven.

The interior of the car is also exceptional...perfect dash, jewel like GT wood rim steering wheel.
