We are delighted to offer this stunning fully restored 1973 Beetle on behalf of Harrogate Smart Repair, who have just finished fully restoring this bug to an almost unbelievable standard.

​The bug has been restored to keep it as standard as possible, but with some very subtle upgrades that the car deserves.

​PAINT / BODYWORK:
The entire body and chassis was completely stripped to bare metal and shot-blasted, and then any rust or rot was cut away and replaced with fresh new metalwork. The bug was then completely re-painted in the original colour, Alaska Blue Metallic (Code 96B), and treated with a modern superior lacquer that really gives a wow-factor and epic 'pop' in the sunshine!

INTERIOR:
The original seats have been professionally re-upholstered in Cream vinyl with blue piping, and new blue carpets have also been installed.

​MECHANICS:
The engine was removed and completely stripped down, cleaned, painted and reassembled with brand new seals, and was also treated to a 1641 piston and barrel upgrade. In addition, the Alternator was upgraded. The car runs on 2 single Webber Carburetors and the front brakes have been converted to discs. The car sits slightly lower than standard using upgraded suspension components.
