"Only 2 owners in the past 53 years, and in a good non-renovated original condition. There are few little flaws, but there's nothing serious, nicely running engine and gearbox. Most likely, the car has only driven 53,000 km."

Description

The car has driven around southern Sweden, first in Lund and then in Småland, near Tingsryd. Only two previous owners, the first owner, whose name is engraved on a sign on the driver's door, had the car until 1988. The next owner and had it until 2018 but did not run after 2013, due to age reasons. The current owner bought the car at auction in autumn 2018 through an estate sale. He's been serving and cleaning up the car and Testing/MOT the car. Then it’s been a hobby car for two summer seasons. All documentation about the owners comes with the car which together is in unusually nicely non-renovated condition. It has always been in the garage and has minor damage that’s easy to fix. The meter stands at 53,000 km and it may be true to the condition, but we cannot guarantee this. (It could possibly be 153,000 km, but given that it feels so fresh in engine and gearbox, we're guessing that 53,000 km is the right mileage).

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine works fine and runs well at idling and in all gears. Good brakes and fitted with new tires. Cooling and heating in the car works very well. What has been fixed in the last 15 years is engine service, a little rust repair, replacement of battery, spindle joint, etc. But no major renovation has been done. The chassis and underbody is well lubricated and has always been in good condition.

  • Interior condition:

    The glass work is fine with a few scratches on the side windows.  The upholstery is in top condition thanks to the protective seat covers that have always been fitted. Light wear mainly on the driver's seat cover. The headliner has some spots as well as a few holes, mainly along the sides. The door cards are in good condition. The mats are in good condition, a little cracked on some edges. The carpet should be replaced, worn mainly over the air ducts and the doors. All instruments in the car work including the radio. There is a spare wheel with original tools.

  • Exterior condition:

    The paint that we deem to be original has minor damage, cracks and marks all around, “see pictures”. The rubber seals have cracked in some places. Small rust spots in a few joints and along the underside of the body. The paint has some touch ups, Small dent on a rear bumper.

  • General condition:

    For its age and never renovated, it is fantastic. But to reach the top condition, you need to fix small rust, replace carpets and rubber seals. Many documents come with the car. The last owner has only driven it 6000 km

Facts about the model

VW Typ 1, kom 1967 med den nya starkare 1500-motorn i sin toppmodell. Motorn användes bland annat i de större bilarna - Typ 2, bussen och typ 3 samt Varianten. Motorn var på 44 hk och gav bubblan en toppfart på nästan 140 km/tim. Av denna anledning utrustades modellen med krängningshämmare bak och fram samt skivbromsar fram. Idag är dessa bilar sällsynta och mycket eftertraktade då de är mer varvvilliga och körglada jämfört med de enklare 1300- modellerna med 34 och 40 Hk. Tillfälle för VW samlare att förvärva en originabil som är rätt på alla sätt.
