Summary
This 1953 Volkswagen Beetle Zwitter Sunroof Deluxe features a split-window body and was refinished in black with a redone striped-cloth interior in 2013. Power comes from a replacement 2,007cc flat-four with dual Weber carburetors, paired with a four-speed manual transmission, and it includes four-wheel disc brakes and a black fabric sunroof. The current owner has added approximately 2,300 kilometers since 2016, and it comes with a certificate from AutoMuseum Volkswagen and a clean Washington title.
