This Volkswagen Beetle is powered by a flat four-cylinder air-cooled engine fitted with a single Solex carburetor. It has a four-speed manual transaxle and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. It is finished in Pebble Gray (Keiselgrau, 440) over a two-tone interior. The original owner was a school teacher living in Mitchell, South Dakota. She retained the car for three decades before selling the 14,000 mile car to her nephew in May of 1990. It remained in South Dakota until Dave Marx of Sioux City, Iowa, acquired it in February 2008 with 14,870 miles on the odometer. In 2008, it joined the Jerry Seinfeld Collection and currently shows less than 15,500 miles.By Daniel Vaughan | May 2016
