Summary
This 1959 Volkswagen Beetle Deluxe boasts significant provenance, having been ordered new by Major Rudolf Anderson and later featured in the 2024 film Monster Summer, driven by Mel Gibson. Showing 13k miles, it features PerTronix electronic ignition and has recently undergone engine resealing, carburetor overhaul, and clutch replacement, though it presents with weathered red paint, a damaged running board, and evidence of rust repair on the right floor pan.
