1958 VW built in Germany. Everyone who sees this VW says it is "Awesome" and don't sell it! VWs this old do come available but not in this good of shape for this price range. This vehicle is perfect for a daily driver or full restoration. If someone wanted to restore an older VW this would save lots of time and money. The VW has matching pan and body number (1696390).
The interior was redone a few years ago and has nice carpet and black and gray VW embossed seats. The glass on the VW is all original as shown by the "Sekurit" marking (See photos). The weather strip on the rear window, rear side windows and front window was replaced a few years ago and is in great shape. The windshield has a crack in front of driver's seat and would need replacement.The engine is a 1969 and runs really strong. The vehicle is currenlty registered and driven. When I purchased the vehicle I was told the odometer reflects actual mileage on a rebuilt motor. The VW was originally green and was repainted white.
I will keep the VW parked in the garage during the auction so the photos are the actual condition of the vehicle.
Buyer is responsible for a Non Refundable deposit of 500 within 48 hours of closing of auction. If the winning bidder uses scam tactics to win auction, and the scam is discovered and confirmed by eBay. The vehicle will not be transfered to scammer and security deposit will not be refunded. I appoligize about this but the last vehicle I sold the winning bidder used interference tactics to win auction and ebay confirmed and ended closing the wining bidders multiple eBay accounts used in the fraudulent behavior.
Buyer is responsible for shipping. I can store the vehicle at my house for up to 30 days to assist buyer with shipping. I am also willing to drive the vehicle/transfer vehicle to a third party shipper in the Phoenix area to assist the buyer.

Driver's side door latch
Passenger side window regulator

VW's Winterkorn tells 20,000 staffers of big cost-cutting plans
Thu, 24 Jul 2014During a gathering of 20,000 Volkswagen Group employees at company headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany on Wednesday, CEO Martin Winterkorn dropped a bombshell. The boss stated that the automaker isn't operating efficiently enough and admitted the company needs to radically start cutting back to raise its profit margins. To right the ship, Winterkorn has proposed killing off less profitable models and spending less on research and development.
According to Reuters, Winterkorn wants to raise the VW brand's profit margin from about 2.9 percent in 2013 to a target of 6 percent. To make that possible, his plan amounts to increasing cost cutting until Volkswagen reaches about 5 billion euros ($6.7 billion) per year to get things back in order. "Over the short-term, we urgently need more efficiency and higher profit," the CEO said during his speech, according to Reuters.
However, Winterkorn can't make these decisions unilaterally. Volkswagen's works council also has a seat on the supervisory board to represent laborers, and it isn't likely to take the proposed cuts sitting down.
VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016
Mon, 13 Jan 2014On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico.

NA auto output to reach 11-year peak
Thu, 13 Jun 2013According to Automotive News, automakers are expected to manufacture 16 million light vehicles in North America in 2013. That's up 500,000 units from last year and marks the largest number since 2002. The prediction comes courtesy of LMC Automotive and IHS Automotive, which point to the improving US economy as a bellwether for total production. LMC Automotive says North America will produce 16 million vehicles while IHS has a slightly more optimistic forecast of 16.1 million units. A total of seven automakers are slated to increase production on the continent this year. Nissan is set to see the largest jump at 20 percent over last year.
Volkswagen, meanwhile, is one of the only manufacturers predicted to scale back production. Analysts expect the German company's output to fall by 23 percent to 170,000 units, thanks in part to slow demand for the Volkswagen Passat and Jetta.
