"The car needs a service that includes an overhaul of the fuel system, brakes, and the floor under the batteries before it can pass inspection or a MOT and be considered roadworthy. Since 1994, the car has been parked. The engine starts, but it needs a thorough checkup and start-up service."

Description

The car has been parked in a barn outside Borås since 1994. Now taken out and washed. The battery is missing. Summer and winter wheels are available for the car. The brakes are seized off and rolls and the handbrake works. The car is started, and runs with an external fuel supply and starting gas.
Good winter project car as VW bubbla are easy to work on. The bodywork is normal for an unrestored car. The upper part has the original paint. The Wings were changed sometime in the 1980s and the rust holes behind the front wheels towards the bulkhead were repaired and in the corresponding places in front of the rear wheels, (the usual rust spots). The car is rustproofed in the cavities and underneath. Unfortunately, rust has crept out around the wing mounts, but despite this, the car is perfectly fine as it is, or a good subject for a rolling renovation. The odometer reading is 98,000 km, but considering the wear on the interior, we estimate that it has driven 198,000 km.

The car is being sold through Vertygsboden in Borås for a customer who needed help with the practicalities. Vertygsboden has, with the help of Mackans Garage, picked up, cleaned and started the car.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car was started by Mackans Garage for Vertygsboden. It runs on starting gas and an external fuel supply. Buyers should clean the tank and replace the hoses. Brakes and electrics must also be checked and fixed. The steering is locked and the ignition key won't work, but it's the right key because it locks the doors.

  • Interior condition:

    Normally worn interior for 200,000 km. The foam rubber inside the seat upholstery has dried and pulverized (common on these cars). The driver's seat is worn, see pictures.

  • Exterior condition:

    Worn condition. Blisters and surface rust are present on the edges but no large holes. Rust hole in the floor under the battery (see picture). There is some surface rust underneath, but the car is relatively intact and good both underneath and on top.

  • General condition:

    Good project car that can be put back on the road with simple means. Suitable for rolling renovation or as a spare parts car. The money goes to a charitable cause in Ukraine. The car is displayed in Vertygsboden's store in Brämhult in Borås during the auction period. Videos about start-ups and cleaning are available. Mackans garages Youtube-kanal

Facts about the model

1303 S var toppmodellen i VW-bubblans utveckling, med 28 miljoner byggda bilar runt om i världen. 1303 byggdes bara i Tyskland under åren 1972-1976. De enklare 1200 och 1300-modellerna fortsatte byggas på flera platser i mer än 25 år till. De sista byggdes i Mexico år 2003. 1998 kom retromodellen New-Beetle med motorn fram men det är en annan historia....

Auction information

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
