GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this beautifully restored 1979 Volkswagen Beetle for sale. With a complete restoration finished in 2014, this Beetle is ready to hit the road for years to come. It is powered by a fuel-injected 1600cc 4-cylinder motor that only has been driven 150 miles since it was rebuilt. Sending power from the engine to the rear wheels is a 4-speed manual transmission.

In 1979 Volkswagen only produced convertible Beetles. The exterior of this cute little Bug is finished in a coat of silver metallic paint that is paired with a black vinyl interior. Like everything else on this car, both the interior and exterior are in exceptional condition. The example offered here features a new convertible top. It is becoming more and more difficult to find good examples of these classic Volkswagens. Many have excessive miles or have started to rust out. The example offered here is a great example of a classic Beetle that has been recently restored and comes with full photo documentation, and all receipts.

After nearly three decades in the United States, and even longer in Europe, the "people's car”, the Volkswagen Beetle, reached the end of its remarkable history in 1979. The creator of the entire compact car movement became an icon of culture – both mainstream and counter – the Volkswagen's evolution mirrored the massive changes in the American auto industry as it went from basic transportation in its original 1100 cc split rear window 24 horsepower 1946 form through various upgraded trim levels and higher output engines peaking at 65hp in the late 1960s. 1971 even brought a name change as VW's product line expanded and the Beetle nickname became the model's formal title. Finding a nice low mileage Beetle is very difficult at a fair price and this one is priced right and has the unique features that will continue to hold its value well. Please call or email today with any questions or for additional information on this exceptional Beetle.
