Karmann of Osnabruck carried out the assembly work including installation of the typically Teutonic folding top. When buttoned up, the convertible was as tight and quiet as the sedan thanks to it's thick 'sandwich' top construction and glass (not plastic) rear window. When folded down, the top created an enormous 'bustle', giving the car a look like that of no other! The car has always been garaged and covered with absolutely no history of any accidents or rust!This must be one of the finest example's available anywhere of this extremely well preserved survivor and an increasingly collectible and highly desirable penultimate year of production 1978 VW Classic Beetle convertible
