We recently got this very solid 1965 VW sedan from one of our customers, They were the original owners that purchased the car new in 1965 here in Tucson, The car still has the original engine and transaxle, The factory black paint still shows very well on the inside of the car, The out side was painted back in the 80’s. The body is very straight with no signs of any major body work, the front apron does have a little wrinkle on one side around the bumper brackets, Very little but want to be clear. The interior was also done back when the car was painted, and it screams 80’s, Still in pretty good shape, We did rebuild the carb, replace all the fuel lines, flush the tank, ect, The car runs and drives great, no rattles just nice and quite. it puts a smile on your face, The car was parked and last registered on 2007, It does have a small puff of smoke when first started that i do think will clear up with some miles put on it, Please feel free to give me a call with any questions, 1-520-722-1984 or my cell 520-247-0092

Chirco Performance has been incredibly helpful with the restoration of my 71' Beetle. Joe the owner is a very easy person to talk to and knows everything about classic VW. John the Service Manager is very knowledgeable and takes the time to answer my questions.
Great VW products and prices, backed by friendly staff, and they are super knowledgeable too! I can't say enough good things about Joe, Frank, John and the rest of the gang. I've learned a ton from them all. Plus they make you feel like family every time you walk in the door. I wish more automotive retailers did the kind of job they do! Such a standout business, plus every year they throw an awesome Bugtoberfest celebration. I've been going for the last 5+ yrs and I wouldn't dream of missing it! Thank you for always taking excellent care of this amateur hobbyist!!!
I found Chirco while researching my Baja Bug project. You cannot ask for a nicer better staff who is always ready to give you technical advice on any project and help you find any parts you need. Their wealth of knowledge about anything VW is unsurpassed. Their willingness to help you through your project is amazing. This is the only place I use to get my stuff. My only negative comments which may not be all their fault is the time it has taken to get my parts, and the shipping seems really high compared to other places.
Prices reasonable and they say they will match prices. I have never tried to see if they do. They have been able to get the parts I needed in good time if not in stock for a 63 bug.

They have better availability on parts for 50 year old cars than some chain auto parts stores have on last year's cars. If you want stock replacement or to customize your bug go here.

Awesome company! FedEx misplaced my order for a couple weeks and the owner himself called me to resolve the issue when it wasn't even their fault! They definitely have me as a customer from here on out. Thank you!
I want to start off by giving a big THANKS to the Chirco staff. I have only had my Baja a little over a month now but they all have been very helpful in everything I’ve needed. If I didn’t understand something they explained it very well. I took the Baja from something that hadn’t run in two years or so and got it moving again, I couldn’t have done it with the help from them and the extensive parts selection they have.
Have purchased thousands of dollars of engine parts, brake parts, transaxle assembles and front end assembles. Great place to purchase your VW components. All of my parts were right on point. Were shipped to my to my delivery point. Can't go wrong with this business!!! Al
They have always had exactly what I have needed from my 1965 Baja, to my 1974 super, always willing to give advice, the staff knows their stuff, and they have a large stockpile of parts, the only place I get my VW parts.
Front end rebuild, windshield replacement was a good experience with one of the best shops I’ve been to. Safety issues were found and resolved on my 1954 VW. John, you’re the best!

Regardless of whatever else I've had for cars I've always had at least one VW. Reliable and easy to work on. Chirco is without question the best place around Tucson to get quality VW parts and service.
I buy some times parts from. Them. For. My company fun buggy, Punta cana, Dominican Republic. Making tours with beach buggy's. I like there good service and quick shipping
Being a VW onwer and live very close buy I have been there a lot. Staff is very knowledgeable and are very friendly. Joe the owner is a good guy and will help you get what you need.
Plethora of parts for any buggy needs. Y’all are dumb if you can’t figure out what your own toy needs to get up and running. Can’t blame a parts store for your ignorance.
