Description
A man from the Stockholm area purchased the car new and drove it extensively, including to Norway with his wife. It was put away in the garage after a few years and was not used. The son claims that he remembered it collecting dust there when he was a kid.
The father, on the other hand, had a dream of restoring the VW and putting it back into service. When he retired in the late 1990s, he took the plans seriously and had the car restored to its former glory, spending around 80,000 kr in the process. When the restoration was finished, the car was displayed in a museum in Norrtälje.
After the owner died, the son took over, but because he did not share the same passion for cars, he sold it to an enthusiast, until his death in 2019, he kept it in his collection and took good care of it. In 2020, the widow sold it to the current owner.

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.
