Known as, “Fifty Shades of Grey” - This stunning 1964 Volkswagen Beetle is the ultimate custom street machine with its striking appearance and modern equipment. It’s powered by a CB Performance 2332cc/200HP engine built by well-respected Pat Downs. After completion in 2018, Joe drove the car occasionally and took it some car shows. It was featured in Airmighty magazine-Issue 37 in 2019 which is included. Joe decided to sell the car and it was purchased by Volkswagen enthusiast Scott Bourget who lives in Fall River, MA. Scott is a part-time car builder and mechanic. Although Scott loved the car, he wanted to take it to another level and that’s exactly what he did. He not only updated the car cosmetically but also mechanically. Since completion in 2022, Scott added a total of 1400 miles enjoying the car with his wife Danielle. They attended the annual Newport Motor Car Festival- Father’s Day Car Show at The Portsmouth Abbey in Portsmouth RI on Sunday June 18th, 2023 with the 64’ Beetle.
The exterior of this 64’ Beetle was tastefully designed and looks awesome. It underwent a complete body-off restoration with great attention to detail. For most of the bodywork, it went to Mike at Vintage Body Werks located in Pomona, CA. He used high-quality Wolfsburg West floor pans which were powder-coated after all the welding had been done. Mike spent many hours making the body straight with nice panel fitment. It was painted in the beautiful color of Volkswagen Anthracite Grey. The paint is in show quality condition and was recently detailed to a sparkling shine. All of the glass and glass trim was replaced new. The rear vented windows have custom sliders with VW logo. This Beetle rolls on custom Porsche Fuchs chrome and black wheels that are 17x4 on the front and 17x7 on the rear. The Porsche logo on the center cap makes a statement. The wheels are wrapped with new Accelera 165-40-17 tires on the front and Yokohama S. Drive 215-40-17 on the rear.
The interior of this 64’ Beetle was also tastefully designed and looks very sophisticated. It’s the perfect combination of elegant and sporty. The interior upholstery work was done by Lenny Copp from West Coast Classic Restoration located in Fullerton, CA. The Mohair headliner with sun visors and German square-weave carpeting looks rich. The interior dash and door panels were painted Anthracite Gray. The door panel inserts, rear panel inserts, front bucket seats and rear seat were upholstered in German Gray leather. The interior trim such as the rear view mirror, gauge bezels, glove box door handle, window rollers, door handles and knobs were replaced new. It’s been outfitted with a black Bamboo Parcel Tray under the dash and black rubber floor mats. The trunk “Frunk” compartment was beautifully restored and painted Anthracite Gray.
The engine compartment is highly detailed with many custom parts throughout. It’s extremely clean and organized looking. The engine lid pivots on hinges and a chrome spring. The entire bay was painted Anthracite Gray. It’s powered by a 2332cc flat-four engine pushing 200HP. The engine was built by well-known Pat Downs of CB Performance. The engine gets fuel from Dual Weber 48 IDF carburetors with Vintage Speed linkage and Vintage Speed air cleaners. It’s equipped with a Holly fuel pump, Russel fuel filter and Earls Ultra Pro Fuel shut off valve. The engine ignition system consists of Magnaspark polished distributor, Magnaspark 2 coil and custom 8.2mm spark plug wires. The engine is cooled by a Bernie Bergmann Porsche fan shroud with Chevrolet 110 alternator CNC machined to fit with shroud. The engine breathes through an A1 Sidewinder Gen 2 ceramic coated exhaust system with corner exit tail pipe. The engine is coupled to a Rancho Type 1 Pro Street 4-speed manual transmission with aluminum side covers, welded 3-4 hubs and hardened keys. It’s equipped with a Stage 1 Kennedy 1700lb 200mm clutch and 200mm super clutch disc.
The undercarriage is also highly detailed with many custom parts throughout. The underside was painted and should be displayed with mirrors at a car show. The fuel lines, hoses, fittings and hardware are all top shelf. The suspension system is a complete air ride setup with 3P air ride management, Viair 444cc 200 psi air pumps and custom air tank with 200lbs capacity. The front suspension consists of custom 4” narrowed Airkewld adjustable front beam, 2” dropped front spindles and Monroe air shocks. The rear suspension consists of Limebug cantilever air ride setup, Limebug custom spring plats, Coolrydes custom spring plate retainers and Monroe shocks.
