Used 1969 Volkswagen Beetle for sale in Concord, North Carolina
Gateway Classic Cars of Charlotte is proud to digitally present this 1969 Volkswagen Type 1.Drivers Wanted:The Volkswagen Beetle-officially the Volkswagen Type 1, informally in German der Kfer (meaning beetle), in parts of the English-speaking world the Bug, and known by many other nicknames in other languages-is a two-door, rear-engine economy car, intended for five occupants (later, Beetles were restricted to four people in some countries), that was manufactured and marketed by German automaker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003.For 1969, the only exterior change from the previous model year was the fuel filler flap no longer had a finger indentation due to a new interior-mounted fuel door release. For North America, the Beetle received a heated rear window, day/night mirror, and semi-trailing, independent suspension with double-jointed swing axles as standard equipment. In other markets, manual transmission models retained a swing axle independent suspension, which would continue until the end of German Beetle production.This bright blue Beetle looks great, whether it is parked at your local car show or cruising the back roads under the power of its recently replaced upsized flat-four engine. The four-speed manual transmission shifts nicely. The owner put this iconic people mover through a recent refreshing and upgrade, the clean, neat gray interior looks great, and the paint shines well. The Fuchs wheels add to the exterior aesthetic, giving this little Beetle a styling cue from its Porsche bloodline.The little bug will zip around the country back roads and keep up with modern traffic thanks to its newly installed larger motor. Now is your chance to Think Small and add this little bundle of joy to your garage and feel what its like to enjoy perhaps the most iconic vehicle ever made.
