Summary:
Used 1967 Volkswagen Beetle 2.5, 85,266 miles
Location:
Morgantown, PA
Description:

1967 Volkswagen Beetle Volkswagen called it "The most revolutionary Beetle since theinvention of the Beetle.", and indeed the 1967 is a special yearfor the Beetle because it saw some one year only features, finalyear features, and first year features all in the same car. It isconsidered in many VW circles to be among the most special andimportant model years for the Beetle. Let's find out why. For consignment, a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle with a title verified85,266 actual miles. It doesn't look much different from a 1962Beetle, but dealer brochures of the time boast about new featureswhile still preaching about the benefits of a rear mounted aircooled engine. ExteriorBathed in Java Green, the classically cute shape of the Beetlemakes people smile nearly 60 years later. Round fenders flankingthe arching hood, domed roof, and sloping rear coupled withstraight, wide doors create a look that invites you in. The roofrack not only provides more storage room, but looks cool and adds asense of adventure to the bug. The external door handles were newfor '67 but may have appeared on some late '66 models as well. The"towel bars" on the bumpers were unique to 1967 and are a desirablefeature. We note the reverse lights, which would have been new for'67 and attached to the rear bumper, are missing on this car as isone bumperette. In front, the distance of the horn vents to theblack seam bodes well for the originality of the fenders and thedeck lid was a one year feature with subtle differences from otheryears. 15-inch painted wheels with VW hubcaps are in restorablecondition. The body carries paint imperfections including chippedpaint, bubbling, areas of rust especially around hinges, formerbody repairs, and various other scratches and scrapes. InteriorBlack vinyl door panels adhere to the interior of the doors. Thisis where we find the new for 1967 door actuators with the recessedcove. The panels are in good condition with a tear on the passengerside. The high back bucket seats, (from a later year Beetle), showsome wear and black tape mends some of the tears in the blackvinyl, with other areas needing repair or restoration. Fortunately,the V-dub enthusiast world and aftermarket source base is huge,really huge. The low back rear bench is in good condition. Oursteering wheel is wrapped in an aftermarket cover, while theWolfsburg emblem shines bright in the center of the horn ring. TheLotus white dash is in great shape and houses original gauges andSapphire AM radio. The floor mounted shifter is surrounded by loopstyle carpeted mats in brown over black carpet. The headliner,including sunroof cover, is a bit rough and would benefit fromrestoration. DrivetrainA 1600cc engine is in place rated at 60 horsepower. It's fed by a1-barrel carburetor and tied to a 4-speed manual transmission. Therear engine compartment is clean and presentable in drivercondition and of course, most components are accessible. Drumbrakes occupy each corner of the Beetle. UndercarriageSurface rust covers the single muffler of the dual exhaust, whichis pretty typical. The remainder of the underside is unremarkablewith surface rust appearing only occasionally. The belly pan andinner wheel components all look good. Transverse torsion barsuspension resides on the independent front suspension whiletorsion bar, trailing arms, and swing axles live on the rearindependent suspension. Drive-AbilityThe upright position, tall windows, and small size make thesenimble cars a joy to drive and why millions of them were sold inthe U.S. and beyond. This car zoomed onto our test loop buzzingalong with a sound only VW's can make. It's nimble, fun, and allfunctions work as intended. Not many introverts drive classic Beetles, or even modern ones forthat matter. But that doesn't mean if you're not the talkative typeyou won't enjoy this car. This one could be driven as is or reallypop with some loving restoration. It's got solid bones and many ofthe features that make 1967 Beetle so special and desired.
