This 1967 Volkswagen is a Brazilian-market Beetle that was modified in the style of a Jolly before being imported to the US by the seller in 2024. The body is finished in mint green and features a white surrey-style top, polished grab rails, and chrome bumpers, while the interior has been fitted with wicker seating surfaces, duckboards, and a retro-style radio. Power comes from an air-cooled 1.3L flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle, and additional details include 15″ steel wheels, drum brakes, dual side mirrors, body-color engine tin, and a rear storage chest. It was acquired by its current owner after it was listed on BaT in June 2024, and subsequent work included installing wood trim and replacing the tires, trim items, ignition components, and more as described below. This Beetle is now offered at no reserve in California on dealer consignment with a clean Florida title.
The body has been modified in the style of a Jolly and is finished in mint green with body-color running boards and chrome bumpers. Additional exterior details include a white surrey-style top with scalloped edges as well as dual side mirrors, polished tubular grab rails, and dual “pea shooter” exhaust outlets. Headlight brows were fitted and the exhaust tips were replaced following the last auction.
Body-color 15″ steel wheels have chrome VW-stamped hubcaps, and the whitewall tires were mounted after the last auction. The selling dealer states the rear brake pads were also replaced.
Wicker seats with wood plank flooring were installed by a previous owner, while work since the last auction included installing seat belts, a dashboard-mounted figurine, rubber floor mats, the front carpet kit, seat belts, and walnut dashboard trim. An ABS wiring loom wrap was also installed.
A three-spoke steering wheel was installed and the fuel-level gauge was replaced. The five-digit mechanical odometer on the 140-km/h speedometer shows 97k kilometers (~60k miles), a handful of which have been added under current ownership. True mileage on this Jolly-Style 1967 Volkswagen Beetle is unknown.
The air-cooled 1.3L flat-four is fed by a single downdraft carburetor topped with an oil bath air cleaner and features body-color engine tins. The intake manifold heat riser tubes have been removed. The selling dealer states the alternator, ignition components, engine tin, battery box, and battery were replaced.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission fitted with replacement outer gaskets.
