Those are 165-80R15. They're called "Classic" and are available through Tire Kingdom in Florida.

He purchased the car from the original owner, who bought it new in Clearwater Florida. It's a model 117 sunroof sedan in Sea Sand beige with 61,000 original miles. It was repainted in '94, and then put into storage partially completed. The owner came to this site and saw that I was local and messaged me, asking if I would be interested in the car. My wife and I gathered the car the next day, along with boxes of new and used parts, and the original bumpers.

The car is mostly all original and rust-free, and my wife loves the sunroof. And it would never have found me without this forum!

I love the Beetle pulled home by a Beetle.

The New Beetle is the mule. It's pulled many Volkswagens home over the years. (And the clutch is beginning to show signs of it.)

My father has got one but she's not as great as yours. Hope I'll restore her in the future!
