1971 Volkswagen Super Beetle Convertible listed on eBay in Hermosa Beach, CA. Listing shows 10,638 miles shown, Semi-Automatic transmission, Green exterior. Asking price $17,999 on eBay.
What the photos show
- Dark green paint is glossy on the sides but flat and faded in patches on the hood and rear deck — budget for a machine polish, and check the fade in person.
- Paint scrapes show on the rear fender edge and low on the front fender — budget for local paint repair there.
- Front chrome bumper is bent in the centre; hubcaps and other chrome are bright — budget for a front bumper, no other chrome money.
- Whitewall tires look new with deep tread and chrome hubcaps are polished — no tire or wheel spend.
- Tan top is shown up and down: up it is taut and smooth with a clear glass rear window — no top replacement budget from these photos.
- Folded top shows a clean white headliner but dirty, rust-flecked frame rails — budget for a frame clean and check.
- Tan basketweave seats and door cards look clean and unmarked, apart from a small split on one door armrest — budget for that small repair only.
- No engine bay photos in the sample — can't judge it, hold back money for that inspection.
- No underside photos in the sample — can't judge floors or heater channels, hold back money for that inspection.
Money: top, tires and interior back the $17,999 ask; the photos show a bent front bumper, fender scrapes and faded hood paint as the main spends, with engine and underside still must-see.
