1972 Super Beetle Slammed Rat Rod with "Patina" - $2500 OBO

I've decided to sell my Super, she's been mostly gone through and is ready to be enjoyed. This is a 71 & 72 style only, with a flat windshield and old style dash. It's been lowered 5" in the front & 6" in the rear, and has also been taken down the "rat rod" path, so don't expect it to be a perfect car or a restoration by any means. She's a driver built to be enjoyed.
She has a ok interior with no torn seats, but needs new door panels and new carpet. Dash has normal cracks but it's all there.
Here is the list of all the modifications and upgrades done in the last 6 months
Engine has been freshened with new jugs and pistons for a 1641cc.
NGK Plugs & Empi wires
Solex single barrel carburetor rebuilt
New Single wire Bosch alternator
New alternator pulley and belt
Newer tires with plenty of tread.
Engine bay rewired
Headlights rewired
European H4 headlamp upgrades, lights the roads up like a late model car.
Empi front adjustable struts with new oil filled inserts
Torsion bars adjusted in the rear for maximum lowering
New KYB GR2 rear oil filled shocks
Upgraded front sway bar with poly bushings
New brakes drums and shoes all around
New brakes hoses and hard brake lines
Electric fuel pump
AM/FM radio with USB & SD card reader
New large capcity battery
Here's the list of the bad.
Pans mostly solid, has one hole in the rear. Opposite of the battery side
Right front shock tower has a hole, should be welded but never had it done.
Needs a seering box, as this one has a lot of play.
Wiper switch needs replaced
She turns heads where ever you drive it, so be ready to wave a lot.
Lastly this car will require a certain type of owner, it rides rough and is over 40 years old so take that into consideration. What you see is what you get, no bumpers, or left running board. Call or text 33O-two85-099six
