1978 Volkswagen Beetle - Classic 2 door convertible Description

Up for auction is a 1978 Volkswagen Beetle convertible, Karmann. Lots of fun to drive and a very nice driver quality car!
ENGINE: it has the 1.6 L fuel injected motor, which runs very well. There is a slight oil leak. As far as I know, it has never been modified. It does have a new throttle cable.TRANSMISSION: factory four-speed. Shifts fine and absolutely no slippage in the clutch.SUSPENSION: stock aside from the wheels. Tires were replaced recently. It handles, stops and rides extremely well.BODY: It had a repaint at one point. It was originally blue though, and the body is straight, with no rust issues or damage. The runningboards do have light rust and can easily be replaced. Couple dings on the front bumper and some of the side weather stripping could stand to be replaced.INTERIOR: Appears to be all original. The driver seat has some cracks. Defrost, heater, radio { cd player } and everything inside works, but the clock doesn't keep reliable time.The convertible top is in good shape, but it has a 1" or slightly larger hole, on the passenger side.I am selling this car for a friend, who lives close to me. He is making room for another classic vehicle. Since I am on eBay regularly and he doesn't have an account, I offered to sell the car for him. I've driven and have ridden in the Volkswagen quite a lot over the last 1.5 years, so Im confident in listing it. My feedback speaks for itself. If there are any questions pertaining to the vehicle, please feel free to ask!The vehicle is also for sale outside of eBay, so in the case that it sells, I will end the auction early. If there is a bid here on eBay, the car will no longer be for sale outside of eBay.1500.00 deposit is required, within 24 hours of the auction ending. Buyer is responsible for arranging pickup and transporting the Volkswagen.
