Sold ’67 with new floors repaired and a brand new 1600cc engine installed. The last guy who had this bug had a horrible 1500cc in it.

I knew very little about the beetle back then, so I really did not know where to look for the rust issues and common problems. Long story short, I became a sucker on this one.
