Summary
This 1979 Volkswagen Super Beetle convertible, finished in Mars Red with a white soft top over a black vinyl interior, is powered by a fuel-injected 1.6-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. The current owner acquired the car in 2017, and an electric fuel pump was installed in November 2020. Noted condition issues include dents, stone chips, and corrosion on the finish and underbody components, while the five-digit odometer shows 1,700 miles.
