That thing is REALLY cool. You don't see a lot of perfectly kept VW's anymore.

JJ Irani · 19 June 2007, 04:18 AM

WOW!! That car is in amazing condition for one that's half a century old!!

Dan Pierce · 19 June 2007, 04:54 AM

Unbelievably perfect!

Very cool bug. I grew up with the family bug, always liked them. Air cooled rocks.

Great looking beetle Julian.
Reminds me of my first car, it was a beetle, but I can't remember what year, I think it was late 60's. I remember it used to leak oil, but it was very reliable.
I notice the alignment of the rear wheels how they angled in as shown in your photo.

58 was the first year with the big rear window.
Still 6 volt system?
Very cool
and a canvas sunroof.

Wow Julian, what a BEAUTY!!

I had a '63 Bug and a couple old Type 2's, but none looked that nice!

charles · 20 June 2007, 11:32 PM

Very nice! Do you have any more pix?

Andad · 22 June 2007, 10:48 PM
