Used 1968 Volkswagen Beetle for sale in Crete, Illinois
For sale in our Chicago showroom is this iconic 1968 Volkswagen Beetle. Known as the “peoples car, the VW Beetle was one of the longest-running models of vehicle with almost no major changes over its multi-decade run (and even longer in other countries!). With its small air-cooled flat 4 cylinder engine bolted to a manual transaxle under the rear hatch, this economy car had surprisingly sporty feel to it, and attracted a lot of buyers because of it. Since its introduction, the Beetle has created a huge cult following, including finding itself in quite a few movies! This Beetle, having only traveled 37,445 actual miles, is practically still in the wrapper! These air-cooled engines are notorious for traveling long distances and, when properly maintained, easily travel 100,000+ miles without breaking a sweat. Times does, however take a toll on some components, regardless of use, and this Beetle has been no exception. To counteract that, however, all 5 tires have been replaced (including the spare), the master cylinder was replaced, as well as new fluid in the braking system, new shocks were installed on all 4 corners to keep handling sharp, and the ignition was upgraded to electronic ignition for a stronger spark, and more reliable starts in colder weather. With an easily recognizable shape, a bulletproof engine, and a cult following, this Beetle is set up for success. Options include: AM/FM Radio, Spare Tire and Jack, Hub Caps, Vinyl Interior, Seat Belts, and Radial Tires. This Bug is more than ready for its next owner!
