Rare example of Volkswagen Tip 11A, better known as Standard Beetle, built the 19th September 1953 and delivered new in Belgium. Exterior color Jupiter gray over gray cloth interior, incredibly preserved.
Despite from many other Standard samples, this Beetle was ordered new with chromed finishing and passenger sun visor (Option code M001), as confirmed by the Certificate of Authenticity.
The Export Beetle is better known especially out of Germany where, on the contrary many Standards were sold; this version was pretty poor, equipped just with the necessary: cables brakes, gearbox without synchro, minimal interior finishing, small parts covered by carpet, no badges or chromed finishings, no sound deadening, no fuel level indicator and neither the reserve tank.
The car is still marvelous, incredibly preserved, that's why it is so rare: most of these Standards was sold in West Germany then destroyed in the 70's/80's. A French enthusiast owned it for some years up to 2010, when this Beetle arrived in Italy and had two owners. Further photos and information on www.gulfblue.it
