Model information

1300 Beetle Deluxe

Info

Noah Ryan spotted this January 1969 Dublin registered Beetle at a recent Cars and Coffee in Bray. It looks like this 1300 Beetle Deluxe was painted VW Blue (L633) and has been finished off with EMPI 8 spoke style rims and earlier blade bumpers with overriders. It has a vented engine lid and a 1300 badge but it’s running a 1200cc engine we believe.

RZO 775 has been accessorised with an engine lid vent cover and bonnet vent cover. The Beetle sits a little lower at the front too which gives it a subtle stance and the side trim has also been removed prior to its repaint. This Beetle also features reversing rear lights which must have been a factory fitted option or a later fitment.

Inside the accessories continue with an EMPI Trigger shifter, original Blaupunkt radio and chrome window winder handles.
