1968 Volkswagen Beetle

This 1968 Volkswagen Beetle is a remarkably well-preserved survivor that spent its life in Washington State before arriving here. It was a one-owner car, and the story goes that a sweet older lady bought it new and drove it mostly to church on Sundays. One look at this Bug makes that story easy to believe. It shows just 90,000 original miles and wears beautiful paint over a clean, all-original interior. Underneath, it’s one of the cleanest Beetles you’ll come across. The rare first-year AutoStick transmission adds even more appeal. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or simply love vintage Volkswagens, this Beetle offers authentic charm and easy-going drivability.

Engine & Transmission

  • Classic air-cooled VW engine that runs strong and pulls smoothly
  • Rare AutoStick (Automatic Stickshift) semi-automatic transmission, first offered in 1968
