Background Story of this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle

Overview of 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle For Sale by Owner

The friendly-faced car that revolutionized transport, not only in Germany, but across the world. Yes, we’re talking about the original Volkswagen Beetle. Made between 1938 and 2003, over 21 million examples were sold during that time. That’s actually more than the population of many countries! 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.

Exterior and Interior

Wearing Texas Rose Yellow paint, this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle sports a black canvas top for those open-air drives because why not? Cruising in a hardtop Beetle is nice enough, but drop the top and you can soak in the admiration and appreciation by passers-by even more. This car rides on a set of silver alloy wheels, has chrome bumpers and that inimitable, cutesy face that every Beetle rocks. The black interior of this 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle can easily accommodate four adults. Alternatively, three children could easily fit in the rear seat, remember, this was, first and foremost, a family car. So, it’s spacious, practical, and well-equipped for its time. This particular car also enjoys a positively luxurious feature in the shape of a radio from Yamaha, replete with a cassette tape player. Why, aren’t we fancy! As for cargo, there’s space under the hood because, remember, in a Beetle, the engine lives out back.

Engine

This 1972 Volkswagen Super Beetle comes with a 1.6-liter variant of the famous flat four that gives every Beetle its friendly and recognizable purr – if it hasn’t been swapped with something else, that is. The air-cooled unit is carbureted and looks to be in great shape. It drives the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. Drum brakes on all four wheels ensure ample stopping power. Unassisted steering is present, but since there isn’t a lot of weight over the front wheels, you won’t need to cultivate bulging arm muscles to drive this car. Oh, and thanks to the water-cooled nature, there’s no need to bother about antifreeze in Winter.

1970 Volkswagen Beetle Restomod LT1

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$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.

PENDING SALE
$54,999

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.

Finished in a striking blue and orange color scheme and featuring custom Auburn-themed details throughout, this Beetle stands as a rolling expression of school pride. It blends vintage German engineering with a personalized, collegiate identity, making it far more than just a classic car—it’s a statement piece. Whether you’re an Auburn fan or simply someone who appreciates unique builds, this Beetle offers character that few others can match.

1970 Buick Skylark 350 Sport Coupe

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$45,000

1970 marked an important year for Buick’s midsize muscle car lineup, as the Skylark 350 Sport Coupe blended the brand’s signature comfort with increasingly aggressive performance styling. While Buick’s GS models often stole the spotlight, well-optioned Skylarks like this example have become increasingly appreciated for offering the same muscular A-body proportions and V8-powered driving experience at a more approachable level. Showing approximately 19,245 miles on the odometer, this Skylark benefits from a substantial refurbishment and modernization effort that included drivetrain work, suspension upgrades, steering enhancements, interior refresh, and cosmetic refinishing. Finished in Bamboo Cream over a Saddle vinyl interior, this Buick stands out with tasteful GS Stage 1-inspired styling cues, upgraded handling components, and classic American muscle car presence.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999

The first-generation Plymouth Barracuda helped establish Chrysler’s foothold in the emerging pony car market during the 1960s, blending compact dimensions with unmistakable Mopar styling and V8 performance. This 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible represents the final year of the first-generation A-body Barracuda and shows approximately 2,171 miles on the odometer. Finished in Ermine White over a black vinyl interior, this convertible has been upgraded with a potent 340ci Mopar V8 while retaining much of its classic period-correct charm. Featuring performance-oriented upgrades such as “J” cylinder heads, a Sure-Grip rear differential, Moser axles, and an aftermarket shift kit, this Barracuda offers a more spirited driving experience than its factory configuration while still capturing the laid-back cruising personality of a classic American convertible. With its clean styling, white soft top, and tasteful upgrades, this Mopar stands out as a unique and highly usable vintage cruiser.
