Volkswagen Typ 1 Bubbla 1200 — 1956

• Mechanical condition

  The engine and the four-speed transmission with a non-synchronized first gear function without any issues. It has an early model exchange engine with the engine code A008174. The designation “R” indicates that the block halves were machined before installation, and “X” stands for exchange engine. The electrical system works well, and the turn signals can be folded out without problems. A front anti-roll bar of a later date provides good stability for the car. The brakes have been renovated and function evenly. The exhaust system is complete, and the tailpipes have good chrome. The brakes were fully overhauled a few years ago and work smoothly and effectively.
  
  The right door cannot be opened from the outside, and the spring that holds the hood up is missing. The fuel tank tap works in all three positions—open, closed, and reserve. The windshield washer operates with a pump button located to the left of the steering wheel. The car starts easily even with a tired six-volt battery.

• Interior condition

  The light blue fabric upholstery may be original and has been protected by a seat cover. There is a tear at the top of the driver’s seat backrest, and the upholstery has several dirt stains. The door panels are likely refurbished and match the style of the rest of the interior. The headliner has a couple of tears and some stains.
  
  The dashboard and steering wheel are in nice condition. The floor is completely intact under the mats and is in normal condition.

• Exterior condition

  The paint is in good condition, likely repainted a long time ago. The body is complete and in good shape, with no signs of previous repairs. The undercarriage shows no signs of repairs and still has no visible signs of rust, except for a minor rust spot at the front. The sills and running boards are in normal condition.
  
  There are two small drilled holes at the bottom front of the hood where some form of badge was mounted long ago; these holes are covered by blanking plugs. There is a small stone chip on the windshield in the lower right corner, and a minor dent/paint damage on the right rear fender.

• General condition

  A nice, well-patinated black Volkswagen that runs well. The odometer reads 18,449 km, likely having rolled over once, which aligns with the condition of the interior and several details.

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.
