This amazing Cal-Look VW Beetle Convertible has been beautifully build with the following specification: Morganic Blue Paintwork with Ivory Vinyl and Beige German Square Weave Carpet. Double Duck Black Hood, Reclining Front Seats, 15 inch Empi Alloy Wheels, 1776cc engine, 2 Inch Narrowed and Adjustable Front Beam, Koni Front and Rear Suspension, Gene Berg Shifter, Four Lap Belts, Battery Cut Off, Oil and Voltage Gauge Pods. This 1965 VW Karmann Beetle Convertible was purchased from San Francisco by renowned VW builder Chris Morgan and fully restored to the show winning condition you see here in 2005. Initially the car needed to be fully stripped and the body removed from the floor pan so it could be media blasted for the perfect base for a show vehicle. With the chassis and bodywork back to bare metal the rebuild could be started. The floor pan was painted gloss black and suspension components powder coated before being bolted back on with Zinc plated components. The body is finished in a bespoke blue metallic which is carried through to the inside of the vehicle, underside of the front and rear wings, engine bay and boot. It is in stunning, show winning condition as is the chrome work, front and rear towel rail bumpers and bespoke rear luggage tray. The hood is top quality, double duck affair which seals beautifully and is very well insulated. This Beetle Convertible is simply stunning. The engine has been rebuilt by VW specialists Volks Werks in La Habra to a very high specification. It runs a Gene Berg crank, Eagle 110 cams and stock heads breathing through twin down draft 40 IDF Weber carburettors. All of the tin ware is finished in Satin black and there is a custom fire wall. The engine bay is a work of art, as many of the ancillaries, pipe work and electric¢€™s and linkages as possible have been moved behind the shroud. There is also the oh so beautiful orange Fram oil filter to maintain the period look. The gearbox has been modified by a company called KCR Transmissions with a 3.88 ring and pinion for better cruising ability. The interior is a work of art. Finished in Ivory Vinyl, it has a set of front reclining seats, matching steering wheel and door cards. The switch gear is all bespoke as is the amazing pedal set, heater duct vents and two gauge holder under the dash. The carpets are German Square Weave in light beige and in beautiful condition. There is a Gene Berg Shifter and four lap seat belts. The quality of the interior is just stunning and probably the best we have seen on a VW of any kind. This vehicles build has been documented twice in VW magazines. The first feature was by Dune Buggies and Hot VW¢€™s in the USA in August 2006 when the build was completed and the second time when it was brought into the UK by its current owner in VolksWorld. Both features give a useful insight into the work that went into the build and the number of bespoke features that renowned VW enthusiasts and builder Chris Morgan put into the car. In the service history file there is a copy of both magazines as well as all of the MOT¢€™s and service invoices since the vehicle entered the UK. There is also a birth certificate from VW.
