Classic Car Addict is proud to present this convertible 1968 Volkswagen Beetle for sale in our Mesa, Arizona showroom. 1968 was the year the name Beetle was given to the car. Volkswagen referred to the car as the Type 1 until the 1968 model year. In Europe, it was marketed as the VW 1200/1300/1500 before adopting the Beetle name given to it by the public. 1968 was the same year they introduced Herbie. Disney's first Herbie movie, The Love Bug, debuted in 1968. The plot features a self-aware Beetle that is tied up in hijinks while also proving itself a successful race car. Early autonomous technology enables Herbie to motor about on its own, a feat that's slightly more believable than the ease with which the 40-hp '63 Bug dispatches competitors at the track. A swing of the door and we see Royal Red metal painted surrounding a black horizontally ribbed vinyl panel, complete with the door handle window crank and a vinyl door pull. Dual textured vinyl seats have smooth black vinyl bolsters and lots of clean black piping. The rear seat is a long bench and stretches from C pillar to C pillar. The carpeting has been removed from the floors, and Coco protective mats have been installed to keep your feet from slipping. An unmolested and simple black painted dash with circular speedometer and square gas gauge sit within the vertical ribbed speaker area which is fronted by an original steering wheel in black with a chrome horn ring and the castle Wolfsburg logo in the center. An AM/FM/CD radio is also mounted in the dash and is a perfect fit. The black convertible top is in excellent condition. This cool little beetle has decently minded gaps and the paint isn't perfect (it shows well) but you can see the imperfections in the video. Rounded fenders in red frame the headlights with chromed visors looking a lot like eyelashes for cars. The lenses for the turn signals and taillights all present well with nice chrome trimming which goes with the black rubber piping seen throughout between the seams of the fenders and bodywork. The rest of the chrome trimmings are present with badging is all correct designation. Blackwall tires have shiny dog dish style wheel coverings, and this adds to the black trim mystique. A cleaned up but not original (AH412069) 1600cc horizontally opposed 4-cylinder engine sits in the rear of this car. It has a 1-barrel carb on top, and a 4-speed manual transmission. The engine appears well maintained, presents very cleanly and drives through the 4-speed. It features a new fuel pump and a new T2 Bosch distributor. She runs and drives great! The convertible top works perfectly and you can cruise top down or top up and get all the thumbs up! Don't miss out on owning this beauty today, call Classic Car Addict at 480-256-1459. Please watch the full walkaround and driving video directly on our YouTube channel under Classic Car Addict LLC. We offer financing and fully enclosed shipping to your door.
