Summary
This 1955 Volkswagen Type I, an oval window, ribbed door model, features a rebuilt circa-1954 1200cc flat-four engine upgraded with a Wolfsburg West Okrasa dual port kit, stroker crank, and new internals, now displacing 1300cc and estimated at 60 hp. It boasts a new interior, a 12v conversion, and Porsche 356 Speedster replica wheels, with most of its original paint showing a moderate patina. The car has received rust repair and new brake components, and is sold with a clean California title.
