1969 Volkswagen Beetle Custom Convertible For Sale Chopped & Widened * Lowered * 1600cc Engine * 4-Speed Manual * Front Disc Brakes * Porsche-Style Wheels * Reinforced Undercarriage Offered for sale is this one-of-a-kind 1969 Volkswagen Beetle Custom Convertible, a seriously cool little cruiser that's been extensively modified from stock with a chopped windshield, widened body, lowered stance, custom fiberglass fenders, and a reinforced chassis. Finished in bright Red with a Black interior, this Beetle has a look all its own. Sitting low over staggered-looking Porsche-style wheels with its chopped windshield and wide fenders, it has an almost roadster-like appearance that's guaranteed to attract attention wherever it goes. Just as importantly, some serious attention has been paid underneath the car. The heater channels are solid, and the undercarriage has been reinforced with steel square tubing, adding additional structural support to this highly customized convertible. Custom Chopped & Widened Body The body has been completely transformed from the familiar stock Beetle profile. Custom fiberglass fenders at all four corners give the car a significantly wider stance, while the chopped windshield and smoothed bodywork dramatically lower its visual profile. Exterior highlights include: Chopped Windshield Widened Body Custom Fiberglass Fenders Smoothed Bodywork Bright Red Finish Custom Roll Bar Removable Bimini-Style Top Custom 1963 Corvette-Style Taillights Custom Headlights Integrated LED Front Turn Signals The combination gives this Beetle a distinctive custom-roadster personality while still remaining immediately recognizable as one of the most iconic automobiles ever built. 1600cc Air-Cooled VW Engine Power comes from a 1600cc air-cooled Volkswagen engine that has been freshened and nicely detailed in colors that complement the rest of the build. It's paired with the traditional 4-speed manual transmission, keeping the classic Volkswagen driving experience intact. The car is reported to: Start Right Up Run Great Shift Through a 4-Speed Manual Drive and Cruise Nicely Be an Absolute Blast Around Town In a lightweight custom Beetle like this, you don't need huge horsepower numbers to have fun. Front Disc Brakes Stopping performance has been improved with a front disc-brake conversion, providing a worthwhile upgrade over the original-style front drum arrangement. The suspension itself remains largely stock-style, but the front end has been fitted with drop spindles to achieve the car's lowered stance. Chassis and suspension highlights include: Front Disc Brakes Stock-Style Suspension Drop Spindles Lowered Stance Solid Heater Channels Reinforced Undercarriage These are especially worthwhile upgrades on a custom convertible intended to actually be driven and enjoyed. Reinforced Undercarriage One of the most important aspects of this build is underneath the car. The heater channels are solid, an important consideration on any vintage Volkswagen Beetle and particularly important on a convertible where structural integrity deserves extra attention. Additionally, the undercarriage has been reinforced with steel square tubing. This added reinforcement provides additional structural support to the modified convertible chassis and is an important part of the overall build. Porsche-Style Wheels & New Tires The low and wide stance is completed by a set of custom Porsche-style wheels wrapped in brand-new tires. The wheel choice works perfectly with the modified Beetle body, giving it a sportier European appearance while complementing the dramatically lowered stance. Custom Interior The custom treatment continues inside. The Black interior provides a great contrast against the bright Red exterior and incorporates several upgrades designed to make the car more comfortable and enjoyable. Interior features include: Bucket Seats Billet Steering Wheel Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel New Door Panels New Rear Interior Panels Custom Audio System Infinity Speakers Custom Roll Bar Clean Black Interior The combination of bucket seats, billet steering wheel, and open cockpit makes the car feel more like a custom roadster than a traditional Beetle. Custom Audio A custom stereo system with Infinity speakers provides upgraded sound for cruising. With the removable Bimini top off and the windshield chopped down, it's exactly the kind of car you'll want to take out on a warm summer evening. The custom build has accumulated only a couple thousand miles, while the odometer currently displays 17,608 miles. Given the extent of the modifications and the age of the vehicle, the odometer reading should be considered indicated mileage rather than represented as actual total chassis mileage. 1969 Volkswagen Beetle Custom Convertible 1600cc Air-Cooled Volkswagen Engine 4-Speed Manual Transmission Chopped Windshield Widened Body Custom Fiberglass Fenders Lowered Stance Solid Heater Channels Undercarriage Reinforced With Steel Square Tubing Front Disc Brakes Stock-Style Suspension Drop Spindles Smoothed Bodywork Bright Red Exterior Black Interior Custom Roll Bar Removable Bimini-Style Top Porsche-Style Wheels Brand-New Tires Custom 1963 Corvette-Style Taillights Custom Headlights Integrated LED Turn Signals Bucket Seats Billet Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel New Door Panels New Rear Interior Panels Custom Stereo Infinity Speakers Freshened & Detailed 1600cc Engine Only a Couple Thousand Miles on the Build 17,608 Miles Indicated Runs and Drives Great This is definitely not your typical restored Volkswagen Beetle.
