This 1956 Volkswagen Beetle Oval Window 'Rag Top' has been given a two-year restoration. The work included the removing of the pan and replacing all rubber pieces with all-new German specification replacements. The seats were restored with OEM specification German cloth and the headliner was refurbished in original Mohair material. The rag top is a German Stayfast cloth sliding convertible top. The engine is a 72.74 CID horizontally opposed four-cylinder unit rated at 36 horsepower and mated to a four-speed gearbox. This Beetle rides on Coker Classic wide whitewall tires that are mounted on correct factory rims.
This Volkswagen is finished in the factory correct Reed Green and all stainless and chrome is either new or has been refinished. Amenities include interval wipers, drum brakes, bucket seats, folding top, rear grab handlings, and pillows.By Daniel Vaughan | Sep 2017
