Ever since the first Bug rolled out in 1971 the people have found creative ways to turn this innocent-looking economy car into various things that portrayed their own character, and personal desires. While many Beetle purists will tell you that this car is its best when stock, a handful of performance enthusiasts have chosen a different route. That’s a route you and I know as hot rodding. Any doubt about what that is should be cleared out at the site of this example. Volksrods have been a thing for as long as the Beetle has, and any Volkswagen hotrod fan would be delighted to know that this 1970 Volkswagen Volksrod Custom, which is currently up for sale, is the epitome of what it should be. Read on to see why it deserves a place in your garage, as well as your heart.
As it’s evidently clear, this Beetle has been converted entirely to be one with hot rod culture. A few of the highlights include the no top convertible look, new axles that push the wheels completely out of the body, skinny tires with mags and fenders upfront, with meaty tires at the back complemented by disk brakes on all fours, and a 4inch drop upfront, the ideal setup for the drag strip. The car also has four-wheel disc brakes, relocated headlights, and satin black exterior paint with green flames running along the body. The interior of the 1970 Volkswagen Volksrod Custom is reported to be upholstered, and the predominantly black cabin has new carpets as well as new green seat covers that mimic the black and green exterior, other than that, the interior seems mostly untouched from a standard Beetle, which is no bad thing really. It even sports the period-correct AM/FM radio integrated into the dash, although we’re unsure as to its functional status.
As for the power, this 1970 Volkswagen Volksrod Custom relies on its original 1.6L engine and original standard manual transmission, although it is reported that the car has new fluids in the transmission, to help its running condition.

It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t like the Volkswagen Beetle – even if they may not outwardly say, or show it. Volkswagen’s lovable little bug-shaped car has been produced in more or less the same form from 1938 to 2003. Envisioned to revolutionize mobility for the German public, the Beetle did that for countless other countries too. Its friendly purr is its aural handshake; the result of its simple and reliable air-cooled flat-four engine. Over 21 million Beetles were made, yet it’s harder than you’d expect to find one up for sale. That’s because most Beetle owners tend to hang on to the car, for obvious reasons. So if you’ve been after your very own Bug, here’s a 1972 Volkswagen Beetle with just 89,726 miles on it. Moreover, the car underwent restoration in 2020, which explains why it looks so fresh.

Chevy’s fourth generation Corvette ran between 1984 and 1996, and was responsible for a major shift in America’s favorite sports car’s persona. The Corvette gained new, angular styling, a digital-style dashboard, more power, and enhanced handling. Mercifully, the much-loved pop-up headlamps were retained. Then, a high-performance variant called the ZR1 was introduced in 1990. The ZR1 drew heavily from Britain’s Lotus sports car maker. Enhancements included a new LT5 V8 engine, larger brakes and sportier suspension tuning. This makes the fourth-generation ZR1 one of the most sought-after neo-classic Corvettes. Here’s a great example up for grabs right now, a 1991 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 69,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt engine, while all info is as reported by the current owner.
