1977 "Triple White" Beetle Convertible
This 77 Triple White Convertible is located in Wisconsin.
It is a clean and pretty car inside and out, not perfect but very
presentable.
The current owners have had the car since 2007 and have used it
sparingly, just a few thousand fair weather miles during this time.
The car has a bit of a unique look with the blacked out trim and
bumpers and wheels painted white...it looks nice!
Very sharp looker!
And with the white top...she is pretty.
I love this photo...sunscreen and an ice scraper.
From what the owners have told me, the ice scraper sees far less use
than the sunscreen.
It is a fair weather driver and is stored safely in the garage in the
cold weather.
Under the front hood is very clean.
The top has some age marks from folding up and down a bunch but it is
solid and tight and is not shrinking or tearing.
There are a few little age related details, some of which that are
easily fixed
such as this broken plastic hinge cover...a couple screws and a new one
installed and it is fixed.
The underside of the engine is very clean and dry
A couple very small paint flaws like this crack at the top of the door.
A little crack in the passenger side hinge cover...just little stuff.
Glass and window rubbers look great.
Black trim and finger gaurds.
Sweet
Carpet is in nice shape...speakers mounted under the dash
Dash pad is in nice condition, the steering wheel too looks good, but
there is a small crack in the center.
The engine has been rebuilt and converted to a carburetor for easy
maintenance.
It really runs nice. Work was done by a local VW legend from the area
that has a great reputation.
Seems reasonably solid underneath
I am seeing some igns of rust along the jack point and support
rail...but certainly not terminal
Door panels in nice shape.
Clean title and current tags
Odometer reads 3762 miles.
Here is another small paint flaw
Passenger side mirror is missing
Great looker though...really a fun car.
Very clean on the front apron
Trunk looks wonderful
Low miles on a rebuilt engine...you can see the brightess of the
heads...not dirty and grungy from years of use.
Another small flaw
Top does have a few marks on it...tough to keep the white ones clean.
Runningboards look like new
Engine is very clean.
Dash and interior are nice
Some good scrubbing and cleaning with the right products should
hopefully help here
Glass ic clean and rubbers are nice
In closing this is a clean and pretty and well sorted example that is
ready to drive and enjoy.
It is not "over-restored" to concours levels or anything, but it
presents itself well
and has a bright and happy vibe to it. Being located in Wisconsin
it is a good choice for those in the area
so you can save on shipping costs and maybe just go see it in person
and drive it home.
We ship a lot of cars out to the mid-west...having one there already is
a nice bonus!
