BRIEF MANUFACTURER DETAILS AND SIGNIFICANT HISTORY OF CAR:
The 1964 Volkswagen Beetle is an emblem of simplicity and charm on four wheels. Born in the tumultuous times of pre-war Germany and crafted under the watchful eye of Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle emerged as a symbol of affordable mobility for the masses. Its distinctive rounded silhouette, air-cooled rear engine, and the unmistakable putt-putt of its powertrain have cemented its place in automotive folklore. A unique fact that might tickle the fancy of enthusiasts is that the 1964 model year marked the introduction of larger windows, which affectionately earned it the nickname “big window Beetle” among aficionados.
