THIS LITTLE 1960 BUG HAS A HAPPY HAPPY HISTORY OF LOVE AND CARE. THE PAST OWNER OF THIS LOVELY CAR WAS ,LIKE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE NEVER RESTORED A CLASSIC CAR , JUST PLAIN WENT OVERBOARD ON THE RESTORATION AS MANY DO. WE HAVE RECEIPTS FOR OVER 14,000 DOLLARS ON THE RESTORATION IN 2007, INCLUDING DRIVETRAIN,BODY, INTERIOR,UNDERCARRIAGE, WITH NO MONEY SPARED. I HAVE BEEN RESTORING CARS FOR OVER 30 YEARS AND IN MY OPINION, FOR A 6 YEAR OLD RESTORATION , SHE IS PRETTY DARN SHARP!
IN MY OPINION, THE ONLY NEGATIVE IS THE PAINT,WHEN IT IS INDOORS, SHOW SOME DIRT IN IT IN VARIOUS PLACES. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN COLOR SANDED OR BUFFED SO PROBABLY YOU COULD ELIMATE 90% OF THIS. NOW UNDERSTAND THAT I AM TRYING TO BE AS CRITICAL AS I CAN AS NOT TO MISREPESENT THE CAR. IF YOU WERE NOT AN EXTREME COLLECTOR, YOU WOULD NOT FAULT THE CAR ANY WAY. THE OVERALL APPEARANCE IS NICE. HAVE FOUND ABSOLUTLY NO RUST.
DRIVETRAIN IS PERFECT WITH RECIEPTS FOR OVER 4,000 DOLLARS SPENT MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION. VERY NICE DETAILING UNDER HOOD!
INTERIOR IS EXTREMELY NICE. THE ONLY FLAW I CAN SEE IS THE HEADLINER HAS SOME VERY SLIGHT DISCOLORING IN THE BACK UNDER REAR WINDOW. NO IT IS NOT LEAKING. HAS RADIO DELETE PLATE.
UNDER CARRIAGE HAS ALL BEEN REPAIRED AND IS VERY RESPECTABLE. ALL SUSPENSION PART REPLACED. NO UNDERCOATING ,SO EVERYTHING IS VERY VISIBLE.
WE ARE SELLING THE WONDERFUL LITTLE CAR AT "no reserve" AND SOMEONE IS GOING TH GET A BARGIN! YOU CAN NOT TOUCH THIS RESTORATION FOR THE PRICE!!!!! WE ARE A TENNESSEE AUTO DEALER. IF CAR IS SOLD IN TENNESSEE WE ARE REQUIRED TO COLLECT THE SELLS TAX AND ADMIN. FEE AT TIME OF SALE. ANYONE OUT OF STATE CAN PAY THERE OWN TAX. SELLING PRICE WILL RECORDED ON TITLE. THIS CAR IS FOR SALE LOCAL AND WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION AT ANY TIME BEFORE THE AUCTION ENDS. OF COURSE IF CAR HAS AUCTUAL MONEY ON TI AUCTION WILL CONINUE. WE DO NOT GUARRANTEE MILES AS THIS IS A RESTORATION CAR AND NO WAT TO PROVE IT.

Andretti Autosport partners with Volkswagen for Global Rallycross season
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Michael Andretti and Volkswagen have both been involved in Global Rallycross for a couple of years, but not together. Andretti Motorsports Marketing organized the final round of the 2012 GRC series in Las Vegas, and there were rumors then that Andretti was going to get in. Around the same time there were news reports that Volkswagen was preparing a 600-hp Polo Mk5 to race in the SuperCar class; the photo above is racer Anton Marklund in his privateer Marklund Motorsports Polo at the 2013 X-Games round in Los Angeles.
Now it's official: Andretti Autosport will campaign the 2014 GRC season with VWs. That's all that's been said for now, Andretti being busy at the moment launching four entries for IndyCar, two for Indy Lights and two for Pro Mazda. We have a feeling we'll be seeing the MkVII Golf involved, but the cars and the driver lineup will be presented at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6.
2013 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid
Tue, 12 Feb 2013More Fun Than A Prius, Less Sensible Than A TDI
Let's have some fun, and do some math. We're talking pretty rudimentary stuff, multiplication and division, to figure out if the upcoming Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid can make a baseline case for itself against two very strong competitors in this segment. The competitors in question, at least for now, are two more Jettas: the diesel-drinking TDI and the fit-for-the-masses SE with VW's long-serving 2.5-liter engine.
To keep the equations clean and simple (hey, we're writers), we'll calculate based on the most flattering EPA miles per gallon stat from highway driving for all cars, assume a healthy 20,000 miles driven per year, and factor in today's average cost for the respective fuels these three require: diesel (TDI), regular (SE) and premium (Hybrid). We'll also start with the base prices for all models.
Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind
Mon, 28 Jan 2013TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.
