M&M Mondays #9.1969 VW Beetle

#9. 1969 Volkswagen Beetle 

No Punch Backs! We love this classic Beetle, and so did the 60s: the Volkswagen Beetle was at the height of its fame by 1969, people were loving its great quality and cute look. The engine was upgraded to a 1943-cc with 53 horsepower at 4200 rpm. Dual- Circuit brakes were added, the bumper raised, and back-up lights installed to make a single taillight unit, creating the Beetle's classic design. Volkswagen improved the car handling, bringing in double-jointed rear axles and a rearview day/night mirror for better visibility, combining style and quality to a great car. We love the Black and Red CocoMats in this Beetle, really making the candy red leather seats pop!
