Model information
1303 and 1303 Beetle
Info
This 1973 1303 Beetle calls Limerick home now. The owner has only recently bought it and although he likes the look of the wheels he finds the steering too heavy so he is thinking of changing back to stock – if you have a set of stock rims and tyres he’d love to swap. Get in touch and we’ll put you in touch with the owner. He is also looking to remove the T-Bars up front and skull brackets on the rear and replace them with a set of bumpers.
As you can see, this 1303 has been modified to suit the builder’s taste and love for skulls and flames. It’s a solid Beetle and will soon be back on the road once a set of bumpers, bumper brackets and stock wheels have been fitted.
UPDATE February 2022 by new owner Paddy O’Shea: “I am the current owner of this Beetle now and it is under a full restoration. I have many pictures of the restore”
