29 67rustaveneger   Sedan 08/01/1966 117042621 L639 Zenith Blue Hey all. It's about time that I post one of my 67's.
I give you VIN# 117042621
It was advertised in the samba classifieds and while some of you may have contacted the p.o. regarding things that you noticed in the pictures.
I snapped it up.
I am the proud 2nd owner of this fine example of a lightly modded 67 Beetle.
The car had been if the same family since purchased new in Aug 1966. Came with service records from the time of purchase to after the third engine. Where it went into storage. From there it was deeded to the original owners son. Who decided that he wanted to mod it a bit. Many thanks to you JP Decker. You did a great job making this a fun car.
Everything done to the car can be reversed.
It has a 1688 dual 34 solex carb dp engine with a mild cam. All German parts were used where available. Otherwise very high quality after market replacements.
Quite drivable and loads of fun.
Everything mechanically has been gone through from front to back.
All electrical issues have been solved and are in perfect working condition.
Gotta love the photo of the title showing the original list / purchase price of the car.
As the classified add stated "Is it perfect? No. Is it nice? YES."

I’m owner #3 and picked her up in January (2020). It was co workers moms car who had it in Chebeague Island off Maine for 45 years. It took me 6 months to convince him to sell it to me with the promise of preserving her. 40,390 miles. I just drive it a few miles every weekend. Feel like I’m in a parade driving it!

156 RyanKrieger   Sedan 11/10/1966 117303470 L620 Savannah Beige Just received my birth certificate on my 67 and found out I've been wrong about my car being built in Oct of 66. Turns out it was built November 10, 1966 and left the factory on the 18th of Nov.

My 67, all stock, original engine/matching numbers, built Oct 66 and sold out of Santa Monica. Always been a CA car, still has all the paperwork.

I've had it for about 15 years and have been slowly replacing some non-original parts with originals. Recently tracked down NOS Beige running board mats in Germany, beige fender bead, stock oil shocks and I'll be replacing the Brasilian fuel pump with an OG Pierburg next week.
