"The engine and transmission of the car are in good working order. Bodywork and underbody is good. Original furnishings in good condition. The majority of the paint is original. There are minor improvements and rust blisters in common areas."

Description

The car has an interesting backstory. In 1970, it was built in Germany and sold new in Turkey. The car was owned by the same family until 2009, when a relative in Stockholm purchased it and imported it to Sweden. It has been in a dry climate, which is why it has resisted rust below so well, but there are some blisters at the bottom of the passenger door and on the higher corners of the front bonnet (common places and easy to fix). Beams, floors, and other parts are in excellent condition. The interioe is complete and appealing. Upholstery and headliner are original. Overall, a really nice 1500 car that was the top model among the type 1 bubbla from 1967 to 1970. It has been owned for the past six years by a VW enthusiast in Dalarna, who recently installed a new clutch and serviced the car. The car is on display at Fahlke's VW workshop in Åmål; please call 07610 for additional information.
The color is called Chinchilla L70F, and it was only available this year.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    The engine pulls nicely, the gearbox feels good, and the brakes work well. In October 2021, a new clutch and tires were fitted.

  • Interior condition

    The interior is unusually complete, original, and nice. It has always been garaged, only had three owners, and has only travelled 160,000 kilometers. That's why it's so lovely.

  • Exterior condition

    Complete and nice bodywork, with some improvements as well as some blisters (see photos). Overall, the body is surprisingly good for being original and unrenovated.

  • General condition

    Overall, this bubbla is unusually good for being original and unrenovated. Its all ready to drive home

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • 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.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
