Description

Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1979 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible!
1979 marked the final year for the beloved Beetle convertible in the U.S., making these last-production Super Beetles especially desirable among enthusiasts. Known worldwide for its charm, reliability, and personality, the Beetle isn't just a car, it's a companion. Few vehicles have inspired such loyalty and affection across generations.

This particular example is finished in classic black with a tan convertible top and matching interior, a combination that rare balances elegance and fun. The car has been shown and awarded, a testament to its presentation and care. Drop the manual top, turn the key, and you're immediately part of a tradition of smiles, waves, and conversations that follow these cars wherever they go.

Under the decklid sits the fuel-injected 1600cc flat-four engine, recently rebuilt and showing approximately 6,100 miles since completion. Paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, it delivers that signature light, engaging Beetle driving experience. The smooth hum of the motor and the precise feel of the gearbox remind you why these cars are so loved, not for speed, but for pure driving joy.

Owning this Beetle isn't just about having a vintage Volkswagen, it's about enjoying an experience that never goes out of style. From Sunday cruises to car shows, this convertible is ready to create new memories with its next caretaker.
