Overview of 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle For Sale by Owner

Volkswagen’s Beetle is an excellent car for those who are looking to enter the world of classic car ownership. Produced between 1938 and 2003, over 21 million were made and sold worldwide. Moreover, the Beetle’s friendly looks, eager air-cooled engine, and simple mechanicals make it relatively easy to maintain. It’s a great starter classic, as it won’t continually irritate you and put you off classics. That’s why we highly recommend buying this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle, even if you’re not particularly interested in classic cars but were just browsing on the internet and came across this listing. This car can enrich your life in ways you never realized.

Exterior and Interior

Wearing a beautiful white and dark red two-tone paint scheme, this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle is a sight to behold. Its cutesy shape, friendly bug-eyed headlamps, and white steel wheels with chrome wheel caps all make for a package that will have you looking back at it as you walk away. The car sports new paint, we’re told, which means that you don’t need to worry about aging and flaking paint but can enjoy the car as-is. Likewise, the interior, which is reportedly new. The red and black interior comes with seating for four adults, a new dashboard, new carpeting, and a Bluetooth-capable radio in retro style. You’ll also notice the installation of cup holders, which is an excellent upgrade for any classic car. The car’s generous glasshouse also means that everyone on board will have a great view in all directions. As for cargo capacity, you’ve got some at the front, sharing space with the spare wheel. As for the rear, well…

Engine

The 1.6-liter air-cooled flat-four engine that propels this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle sits proudly in the tail, waiting to sing the song of its people on every drive. The engine powers the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. While the steering is unassisted, the relative lack of weight over the front wheels makes it surprisingly easy, even when parking and maneuvering at low speeds. Ditto the car’s drum brakes, which are surprisingly potent. Not that this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle is a race car; driving it hard and fast is not its style. Instead, take it easy and slow down. This is what we meant about the car being a life changer – it will encourage you to slow down from your busy lifestyle and notice what’s happening around you.

The friendly-faced car that revolutionized transport, not only in Germany, but across the world. Yes, we’re talking about the original Volkswagen Beetle.

Formally, the Beetle was only offered as a two-door saloon or a two-door convertible – beach buggies, stretches and other body styles were aftermarket creations. Today, we have a sub 30,000-mile 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle for sale from Lake City, Texas. This gorgeous drop-top Bug comes with a car cover, the owner’s manual and is reportedly a Karmann Ghia-tagged car.

1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod LT1

VERIFIED SELLER
$55,000

There are custom builds, and then there are machines like this. This 1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod shows just 710 miles and represents a complete reimagination of one of the most recognizable economy cars ever built. Far removed from its humble air-cooled origins, this Beetle has been transformed into a full custom hot rod powered by a Chevrolet LT1 V8, riding on a tubular chassis, and engineered with hardware more commonly found in purpose-built performance cars. From its chopped roofline and wide rear stance to its remote-controlled suicide doors and bespoke interior, this is a build created to command attention wherever it goes. The title carries a rebuilt designation noted in title history, which should be fully disclosed, but this vehicle’s appeal lies in its craftsmanship, engineering ambition, and sheer uniqueness rather than originality.

1957 Volkswagen Beetle

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
$49,999

Few automobiles have achieved the universal recognition of the Volkswagen Beetle, and even fewer have maintained the enduring charm of the early oval-window cars. This 1957 Volkswagen Beetle represents one of the most beloved eras of the Type 1, combining the purity of the classic air-cooled formula with the unmistakable character that helped mobilize postwar Europe and eventually win over the world. Showing 4,042 miles on the odometer, this figure should be considered mileage shown unless otherwise documented, as is typical with collector vehicles of this vintage. Finished in black over a striking red leather interior with white piping, this Beetle presents a far more bespoke appearance than a standard factory example, further enhanced by its bifold ragtop and included matching trailer. For collectors seeking vintage Volkswagen charm with added personality, this package offers an especially eye-catching proposition.
