    The Beetle always was a car for life. I have mine now for 38 years!

    I had one VW Käfer 1200 cc 1965 model I drove from Munich to leoben over Salzburg pass control. What a reliable car even in frozen winter it starts with ease and internal heating was just great... So simple to tune the engine and do maintenance with few tools in my car. I love its sound and the cozy feeling inside the VW Käfer.

    BEAM;
    5.5” narrowed beam. Tubes machined for needle bearings, factory inner bushings, CSP German adjustors, factory zerk fittings. Rebuilt Oval era steering box, fully smoothed and painted. Extended pitman arm by Chase Hill. Extended upper torsion arms by Chase Hill. CB Performance Drop Spindles. NOS VW boxed King and Link pins. Torsion arms, spindles and spindle carriers have been smoothed, polished then bead blasted and painted in PPG base/clear. The Beetle is located in Kalama, Washington and has less than 1 mile on it since being restored.
    Sorry, ran out of room above, so had to paste the beam info here...

    Killa details, even sound of motor, sounds like a big stroker. Saw the other double and buses inside. Wats up next?

      I have a 54 euro and that’s how I want to finish…blocking foreva n eva, but look at the end result. Nice video too. Thought it was a double but my bad as now see it’s a single cab. Still will be watching what’s next.

      It was restored by the owner himself at his home shop. Watch for an upcoming feature in HotVWs magazine that gives the full story.

    It's a 55 VW Beetle . . .since ALL 55 VW Beetles had an oval window you don't need to call it a "55 Oval"

    • @metalworksclassicautoresto9583
      @metalworksclassicautoresto9583 Рік тому +3

      For SEO "search-ability" reasons on UA-cam...it needs to be called an Oval in the title of the video and description, but thanks for the clarification on 55 and all 54-57 Beetles being Ovals.
