1958 unrestored original VW Karmann Kabriolet
Talk about a true Barn Find, feast your eyes on this unrestored 2 owner 1958 VW Convertible with just under 52K original miles. This time capsule was originally purchased by a Pilot out of Long Beach, Ca who unfortunately passed away sometime prior to 1977.
At which time his widow, not having the heart to part with her dear husbands prized possession, chose to allow it to remain garaged until 2002 at which time it was passed on to its current owner. In the time since then this vintage Convertible received a complete brake overhaul, the installation of a “replacement” fuel tank, carburetor cleaning, etc. and at that point the engine was awakened from its 25+ year slumber.
Since then it has been safely stored in Oregon where it now currently resides. To say that there aren’t many “time capsules” such as this around today is an understatement.
Also includes two spare 36 hp engines, a rare Hazet toolkit, an original VW Gas Heater (never installed) and a couple other goodies as well.
