Seller's Notes

This Volkswagen Beetle 1300 Deluxe is an endearing and iconic German classic, which benefits from an extensive previous restoration. Under the rear engine lid sits a 1.3-litre air-cooled flat-four, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. This example was imported and passed compliance in Australia in September 1968. It has been with the seller and reportedly third owner for 22 years. The odometer indicates 99,611 miles, which the seller believes to be accurate, though this is not warranted. Build year: 1967 This Beetle 1300 Deluxe is finished in the appealing hue of Birch Green, over a grey vinyl-trimmed interior, featuring a body-coloured dashboard and exposed body panels, and black carpets. It rides on a set of body-coloured steel wheels with chrome hubcaps, fitted with Federal Super Steel whitewall tyres. Equipment includes a two-spoke steering wheel, a VDO speedometer, elasticated door card pockets, and push-out front quarter light windows. The car comes with a spare wheel, the owner’s manuals with a grey plastic wallet, the original partially stamped maintenance booklet, a number of photos from the restoration, three show trophies, a copy of ‘Der Käfer Katalog’, a selection of workshop manuals, and a number of spare parts. One ignition key is included. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a full respray in its original colour was carried out during the restoration, there is a slight dent on the rear left-hand quarter panel, and the seats were retrimmed during the restoration. This Beetle’s most recent maintenance was carried out in December 2024 at around an indicated 99,000 miles by Springwood Car Care, which consisted of an engine oil change and the carburettor being re-tuned. An engine oil change was carried out at around an indicated 90,000 miles.
