The bodywork is straight and the white front bumper fits tightly to its mounting. The cargo area, if so configured, is clean. There is a roll bar with two road lights perched atop it.

This Bug rolls on size 165/85R15 radials in front and Cooper Cobra Radial G/Ts, size 275/60R15 in back. Each one is mounted to a chromed alloy wheel. The tires are in very good order while the wheels look excellent.

Inside is a red vinyl interior with yellow piping. The seats are in very good order. The rear bench seat is hidden beneath the tonneau. A three-spoke aftermarket steering wheel is in good order and a red, metal dash faces the driver. An array of SW and VDO gauges face the driver. The oil temp gauge is inop. A chromed EMPI shifter falls to hand between the front seats. An Infinity infotainment system completes the interior.
