1965 Beetle survivor Posted: Fri May 22, 2020 7:46 pm     Views: 59      Rating: Not rated

This is the car my wife learned to drive on when she was 16. She drove all over Anaheim in it. Her Dad bought it new in Long Beach. After using it as a family car, he kept it up as a hobby until he died. My wife's mom gave it to her because she has so good many memories in it from her childhood. It has the original 1200 and is still 6v. It is complete and everything works even the windshield squirter. It has a sapphire 1 radio. Listening to AM stations through the single speaker is like a time machine. We use it as a weekend car to do little trips. The joy of driving it and hearing the hum of the air cooled motor is pure joy.
