I just got my first 67. Vin 117000623
Narrowed front adjustable beam, disks up front, new floors, new drums out back,
Original interior (at least what's left)
Running driving
Starting with new brake master, steel lines, lower driver door hinge patch panel, new axel seal on right rear, no clue why my photos won't load. Oh well. |

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." |

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.

It is a two owner L41 convertible, vin#*157474784*. Car spent its lifetime in California, has original number matching motor/trans axle, and is in great shape. I stared the restoration and preservation 12 months ago and am getting close to completion. I have saved, and documented every part refurbished or replaced. |

'Barn Find' from childhood neighbor who restored it with my brother in 1988-89. He covered it and went to work on other cars until he passed in mid-'90s. It then sat in the garage covered for 30 years - with only about 500 miles put on it. His son sold it to me in July 2019. |
