Volkswagen Typ1 Bubbla 1300 German Registered — 1970

• Mechanical condition

  The car runs fine in the engine and gearbox. It is equipped with a 1300 cc 40 hp engine and four-speed gearbox. The brakes don't work well and need to be fixed. The tyres are from the 1970s with dry cracks and need to be replaced. They have only done a start-up service to be able to test drive the car. You can therefore expect that the car requires service and review before it is put into traffic.

• Interior condition

  The car had a seat cover when it was bought in Germany in 1974. We have tried to lift the cover a bit to see the original interior. The little we saw appeared to be in good condition, we didn't want to rip the upholstery cover which has a good fit, so the full original interior is therefore not seen. The headliner is good, there is a small hole that can be seen in the picture. Stylish door panels, carpets and dashboard.

• Exterior condition

  Very well maintained body, the car has been stored in an airy loge since the 1970s. The bottom plate was heavily rustproofed before setting it down. In connection with this, the steps were dismantled and new steps have been fitted. The car has a repaint from the 1970s. We think it was the car company that sold the car to the Swedish American who had it repainted. The paintwork has survived storage well. There is some surface rust at the bottom of the wings and on the right door and some minor rust blisters in a few places on the car. See the pictures. The bumpers have some rust spots. The car has not had a valet beyond cleaning and a wash since it was picked up in the summer of 2022. We, therefore, believe that it has the potential to be much nicer. During the time in the barn, something has fallen onto the car. There is a dent at the right C-pillar. There is also a dent on the right door which probably occurred at the same time. See the pictures.

• General condition

  Rare, unworn original condition with only a simple repaint issued in 1973. The car is untouched between 1975 to 2022 and only started a few times. The buyer himself must fix the Swedish Registeration. The German registration documents are included. For German buyers, these documents can probably be used directly, without a registration inspection. Sold unregistered at auction without responsibility for the registration process.

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.
