"The car had been owned by the son's father since 2007 until he died recently, so it has only had three owners since new. The car has been properly maintained and comes with a plethora of old documentation."

Description

The car had been owned by the son's father for 14 years until he passed away recently, and he had kept it in excellent condition and very well maintained (see pictures). The car comes with all inspection/MOT certificates dating back to 1968. The car runs and drives well, but it is a slow starter when cold, as is typical of most old beetles. Except for the son who recently registered the car after his father died, it has only had three proper owners since new. The car was delivered new by Gösta Nilsson in Ystad and has spent its entire life in southern Sweden with three careful owners. A recent technical inspection had some small remarks that needs to be fixed (picture).

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    The engine and transmission are in good working order, and the engine bay is clean. When cold, it may be difficult to start; most likely, the choke and carburetor need to be adjusted.

  • Interior condition

    The interior is nice and original; the front seats have a fitted seat cover and the original fabric underneath; the drive seat has wear (see photos).
    The rear side panels are original, and the front door cards has been updated to match the seat cover; this was very common styling at the time, and it is likely that the black vinyl is original underneath. It fitted with a nice old blaupunkt radio.

  • Exterior condition

    The rear left wing was replaced recently and properly repainted. It has nice, clean paintwork in an appealing metallic blue. The bodywork is straight and free of rust, with a very solid underbody (see photos). The chromework is in good condition, with the exception of a small dent on the front bumper.

  • General condition

    This is a well-kept car with a lot of history that any collector or enthusiast would be proud to own.

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.
