Vehicle description
1977 Champagne Edition Volkswagen Superbeetle Convertible Up for sale is a 2 owner original rust free fuel injected 1 st edition Champagne Edition Superbeetle convertible. Floors, support rails and body are near perfect. The vehicle currently shows 5951 miles on the odometer which could be original mileage. The oil change sticker on the door jamb documents an oil change in 1995 when the car had 5766 miles. Since I cannot verify actual mileage I would classify it as “true mileage unknown.” The VW sat in a garage for many years, as a result, many parts needed to be replaced including most of the brake and fuel injection system components. Additionally, the 4 bias ply dry-rotted tires were replaced. The original dash, carpet, headliner, sunvisors, top boot, original rubber floor mats, chrome bumpers, window chrome (no pitting) and the working AM/FM radio are in excellent condition. The car also has the period correct center console. The original front seat upholstery could stand to be replaced, but the original factory color with squareweave pattern is unavailable, so I decided to leave it as is. This Superbeetle has all the Champagne Edition attributes including the L90E Alpine White paintwork (photo), Silver Grey convertible top, upholstery, door panels, matching rear top boot, Lemmerz “GT” sports wheels, padded steering wheel with silver embellished horn pad, Maple (1977) veneer dashboard trim and gold stripes along the lower body. Approximately 1000 were produced in total – one for each selected Dealer. The VIN on the dash and the “tunnel” match (see photos); however, the sticker with the VIN on the door post was partially removed (pics).
