| VW beetle, oval restoration For Sale (1955) edit C68816 | | | I bought this beauty from a friend who had it under a tarpaulin for 10 years. All original, UK, right – hand drive, 1955 oval.
For the last 4 years I have been sympathetically and painstakingly restoring it – with expert help from an experienced friend. Body off resto. Floor pan now as new; new brakes & brake system – all working, new wheel bearings all round, shocks – all mechanical parts replaced / renewed / repainted / reassembled as new.
Shell has been welded in a few places as necessary and is in very good condition, stripped back to bare metal and primed.
Original glass, quarter-light window frames need re-chroming. All original upholstered seats – good condition. New inner door panels and headlining needed. 6 volt wiring loom purchased and currently being installed. New 6 volt battery included.
Sandblasted original wheels, 5 new tyres.
Engine renovated professionally and running sweet.
Why am I selling this rare car? Quite frankly I have run out of steam. I am sad to part with it but I can no longer afford the time. If you have the time and energy it truly is the perfect project near to completion
