1960 Volkswagen Beetle Classic Ragtop 29673 Miles Indigo Blue
We're going to go out on a limb here and say that this is probably the nicest, fully-restored VW Beetle you've ever seen. After undergoing a five-year long, pan-off restoration where not a single detail was overlooked on the build of this 1960, we're confident making grandiose statements like that. We've had the pleasure of selling hundreds of these 'der Käfers' throughout the years, and none have been as comprehensively restored and darn near perfectly executed like this one. If you wan the best-of-the-best, here it is. 1960 is largely considered to be the final year of the 'classic' VW Beetles, and finding one that's still alive, let alone completely restored like this beauty, is quite the rare feat. Thanks to a revolutionary marketing campaign, sales of the Beetle took off into the stratosphere after 1960, reaching production numbers north off 700K for the first time in its history, eventually ballooning over a million just a couple years later. 1960 was a real line of demarcation for the Bug, representing the final year before Madison Avenue helped the car become a household a name, so in many ways this is an incredibly important model year for historians. Aesthetically, the Beetle didn't really change much at all after 1960, but the following year did usher in fully synchronized transmissions, an automatic choke, pump-type windshield washers, and an extra four horsepower for a grand total of 40bhp.
