Description:
THIS… is a 1958 Volkswagen Beetle Folding Roof, finished in black over a Terra Cotta interior.
This Beetle is a rare and desirable factory black example equipped with the original roll-back folding fabric sunroof. It is also the first model year for the larger rear window, adding to its collectibility. The car is a black-plate California vehicle, and the original owner reportedly worked at California’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
The exterior has received a recent black repaint, while the interior has been refinished in Terra Cotta upholstery. Power comes from a 1200cc flat four-cylinder engine, paired with a four-speed manual transmission.
Additional features include four-wheel hydraulic brakes, Hella headlights, and VDO instrumentation.
Overall, this 1958 Volkswagen Beetle represents a well-preserved and highly sought-after folding-roof example with strong provenance and classic styling.
