High Bid: $ 22,000

ULTRA RARE BEETLE CONVERTIBLE WITH ONLY 7,371 ORIGINAL MILES. In 1977 and 1978, VW issued one Champagne Edition convertible to each US dealership, also known as a Special US Sales Campaign model S723. This was essentially a Triple White convertible, but used a sand colored convertible top and had a set of four gold stripes running along the bottom of the doors and rear quarter panels. The 1977 model had faux burled elm dash inserts and the 1978 had faux rosewood dash inserts. Both had Opal colored vinyl seat (ribbon weave) and door panel coverings. Approximately 1000 total triple white S723 convertibles were sold in the US. I am pleased to offer this 1978 Super Beetle Convertible Champagne Edition in Triple White. This was my fathers car that was garaged and covered at his second home in Palm Desert, Ca. It has 7351 original miles from new (Documented from DMV smog check records). Original paint, top, interior, etc. Just fitted 4 new tires -BF Goodrich from Coker . As good an original specimen as you are likely to find. Runs & drives very much like a new one did. This is one to put away ! Inspections encouraged, this car is in pristine condition. Survivor car. This vehicle is a 1978 but titled as a 1977 Volkswagen.
