1958 Volkswagen Beetle

LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1958 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible

The Beetle, conceived by Ferdinand Porsche in 1932, was developed as a mass-produced, low-priced vehicle that was available and affordable for all Germans, and the phenomenal success of the now-beloved “people’s car” stands among one of the most remarkable automobile stories of the 20th century. The charming Beetle was just hitting its stride in 1955 when, by year-end, the Wolfsburg Works had produced a total of 279,988 cars in one year alone. Annual production increased by 50,000 or so, until the million-car mark was achieved in 1965.

This convertible has undergone a comprehensive restoration, which included rebuilding the 1,192-CC four-cylinder horizontally-opposed engine with modern MSD ignition. The transmission is the standard floor-shift four-speed manual. The VW is finished striking color of Tuxedo Black, complemented by black upholstery and a black convertible top. The beautiful interior features seating that has been upholstered in black leather, and it offers the driver and passenger every amenity available in 1958, including a blumenvasen (a panel-mounted bud vase). Included with the Volkswagen is the boot cover.

The styling of the Volkswagen Beetle is undeniably timeless to all car enthusiasts. This Beetle has been restored and drives better than it left the factory. Don’t miss your opportunity to own this beautiful 1958 Volkswagen Beetle Karmann Convertible!
