Exterior Color Seafoam Green
Interior Color Gray

DESCRIPTION

Sporting a vibrant coat of seafoam green, this 1961 Volkswagen Beetle exudes a playful personality that mirrors the free-spirited 60s. Dressed with an earlier style body, including an oval rear window and a dashboard reminiscent of the 1950s, the vehicle offers a visual throwback to its roots. The exterior is equipped with 15-inch wheels and 185/65R15 tires, which provide a solid stance on the road, complemented by a repaint that gives this classic car a fresh, inviting look.

The Beetle\'s interior is a study in understated elegance. It features a gray and seafoam green color scheme that extends to the vinyl bucket seats, providing a serene cabin atmosphere. Simplicity reigns here with a functional, floor-mounted shifter and an original Blaupunkt radio. Notably, this model has a rare air conditioning system that operates surprisingly efficiently, offering a cool respite from the warm nostalgia enveloping the rest of the car.

Beneath the rear engine cover hums a 1200cc gasoline engine paired with a four-speed manual transmission, a setup that demands engagement and rewards with authenticity. The mechanical symphony is supported by a torsion arm front suspension and an IRS torsion with shock rear suspension, providing a ride that respects the car\'s historical roots while ensuring adequate comfort. The straightforward drum brakes on both fronts continue the theme of simplicity and reliability.
