This 1970 Volkswagen Beetle convertible was purchased new from John Meyer Volkswagen of Dayton, Ohio.
The seller’s father bought the car from its original owner in 1972, and the seller acquired the vehicle in 1989.
Repainted in its factory shade of blue over black vinyl, the VW is powered by a 1.6-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle.
A centrifugal-advance distributor and Wolfsburg-style front seatbelts have been installed, and other features include a black convertible top, 15″ steel wheels, and hubcaps.
This Beetle is now offered with manufacturer’s literature, service records, spare parts, and an Ohio title in the seller’s name.
The seller states that the car came from the factory in Diamond Blue, and was repainted to match in 1987 following replacement of the driver-side fenders.
