Beautiful restoration of rare "Zwitter" model with semaphores, 1100 cc engine!

The early VW Beetles are highly sought after because they represent the most pure form the of model with the finely shaped front fenders, split rear window and beautifully simple elegance of the interior.
During mid-1952 Volkswagen changed the design of the Beetle replacing the rear split window with an oval shaped window. There was a five month cross over in production beginning in October of 1952 where Beetles were produced with a split window body while possessing an updated dashboard as well as the creature comforts of the upcoming oval window cars. Cars produced during this five month crossover have since been dubbed as “Zwitters” which is the German word for hermaphrodite meaning that these cars were part oval and part split.
This particular example has many desirable options including "mud scrappers" mounted on the running boards, working radio, combination spotlight/rear view mirror, porcelain ash tray and flower vase.

The quality of the car and restoration is very good and would be very competitive in a car show environment.
