Cruisin Classics is proud to present to you this stunning 1974 Volkswagen Beetle. This Bug has tons of eye appeal with its slick pearl white paint, bright trim, and lowered stance. The large front headlamps have bright trim rings, "eyebrow" visors, and "cat's eye" covers – an awesome combination that's sure to get attention! Both front and rear bumpers are in good condition with all of their rubber guards intact. There is lots of bright trim – hood center strip, turn signal bezels, side molding, side mirror, door handles, and front window trim. The running boards are rock solid and topped with newer rubber matting. Around the back are the iconic "elephant foot" tail lights, a vented trunk lid, and chrome exhaust tips. On the roof of the car is a grey luggage rack with attractive wood slats that's like a cherry on top. This whole cool package gets down the road on 8-spoke EMPI wheels wrapped in new (2022) Mastercraft SRT Touring red-line tires that take the look to a whole new level. In the front trunk, you'll find black hook & loop carpeting, a full spare on a rally-style wheel with a VW hubcap, and a factory jack. Under the rear trunk lid lies the heart of this Beetle – a very nicely presented 1,776cc 4-cylinder engine. The engine bay is clean and tidy and the engine appears to have a multitude of newer parts as well as newer wires, belts, and hoses. This engine is mated to a standard VW 4-speed manual transmission that shifts like butter. Stopping power is improved from stock with 4-wheel disc brakes and newer calipers & lines. When you open the driver's door you'll see that the interior is just as cool as the exterior! The interior is dressed in a head-turning combination of red, black, and plaid. The door panels are in excellent condition with red vinyl, plaid cloth, and a black armrest and handle. The seats carry on the theme with red vinyl surround and plaid cloth inserts showing no wear. The floors are covered in newer looking black hook & loop carpet with matching carpeted floormats. Overhead is a nice, tight white vinyl headliner. The driver is treated to a 4-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel with Wolfsburg logo centercap – a really great upgrade. As is typical of Beetles, the dash is rather spartan. There is a speedometer with fuel gauge and odometer, warning lights for "Gen" and "Oil", and an AM/FM Retrosound stereo with aux and USB ports in the glovebox. There are working 2-speed wipers, but no heat or horn. In the rear is a bench seat with seatbelts and a rear storage area with 2 box-mounted Infinity 6X9s for cruisin' tunes. We have a thick folder of receipts for this Bug dating back to 1984! It appears from the receipts that the car underwent a substantial restoration around 2009. If you're looking for a great-running Beetle that's ready to go to a car show today and turn heads everywhere, then this is one that you won't want to miss!
