1954 Volkswagen Beetle Deluxe Sedan
Nineteen fifty-four was the first model year for the key start switch, dual sun visors, flat wiper arms and a three-position dome light. This example was made in Volkswagen’s Essen factory on May 6, 1954. At 5,866 miles, the previous owner invested over 350 hours in restoring this car, from November 19, 2010 to December 6, 2011. Still retains its original metal body, original glass and original pans. Nearly all the parts used for this restoration were refurbished originals or new old stock (NOS). As part of the car’s documentation, there is a photo book showing the Bug before, during and after restoration.

Dressed in correct Stratos Silver (code L-227), the car’s paint and trim are in excellent overall condition. The doors close with typical German solidity, the engine bay is extremely tidy, the battery tucked under the rear seat looks good and the trunk is clean and comes with a full-size spare tire with matching wheel and wheel cover. The straight bumpers without hoops are shiny and mirror the rest of the exterior’s condition. The gauge cluster, Hella headlights, floor heater, emergency brake and windshield wipers all work, this model has the semaphore turn indicators in the B-pillars, reserve fuel switch and fixed rear quarter windows. Out back are heart-shaped brake lights and an oval rear window. The gas cap has its original flip-over seal still.

This Bug rolls on Firestone gum-dipped wide whitewalls, size 5.60-15 at every corner. Each tire is mounted on a steel wheel painted gray and topped with a full moon wheel cover. The wheels are in excellent order while the tires are in very good order.
