This car has been in my family for over 30 years and so I am sad to sell it, but it has been sitting, waiting for the restoration I thought about with good intentions, but never got the time or the money to make it a reality.  I would like to see it go to someone who will restore this beauty to mint with original white top, white seats, whitewalls, etc. as I can remember when I was 5.


This is a 1962 Volkswagen Karmann Convertible with all original body, the convertible top has been replaced, and I have put seat covers over the original white seats, both front and back.  
The original engine has been replaced with a 1964.  This had already been replaced by the owner prior to when my uncle bought it originally.

This car has been sitting outside, under the tarp for the last 10+ years.  It was running well until I stopped driving it and parked it then.    
In preparation for the restoration that I never got to, I had purchased over a thousand dollars worth of parts such as: floor pans, heater channels, running boards, carpet, brake shoes, etc ...I am including all of these parts that you see pictured along with the sale of the car.

a few notes...
The car has been converted to the 12 Volt system instead of the 6 Volt as it was originally.
The bumpers were lost in a move.
I do have the title.


I have honestly tried, to the best of my ability, disclose the condition of the car.  If you have any questions or would like me to send any particular pictures, let me know and I will be happy to do that.  All sales are final and "as is"and a $2000 PayPal deposit is required within 24 hours after the end of the auction.  The remaining balance may be paid on pickup or after auction end via cash, or bank transfer. Local pickup only- Buyer is responsible for the loading and transportation of the vehicle.  Arrangement for pickup may be made after the purchase. Please pick up the vehicle within 1 month of purchase or I reserve the right to keep the deposit and relist the car.  Any bidders who do not pay will be reported to ebay. Please bid only if you intend to purchase according to the parameters of the sale.

Thanks for looking! Good luck!!!

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

Europeans get first crack at new Golf Variant wagon

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Just last week, when we brought you news of a new Volkswagen Golf variant out and testing in Europe, we had no idea we were being so literal with out description. For it seems that VW has every intention of calling its new Golf wagon, making its Geneva debut, the "Golf Variant."
Odd/interesting sobriquets taken as read then, there's a lot to like about this new small wagon from VW. The Variant will shed some 232 pounds in this generation, and will come to market with two efficient TDI engines. Volkswagen isn't giving us displacement figures for either yet, but we're told the diesels will come with outputs of 110 and 150 horsepower. The 110-hp TDI BlueMotion Varient will be good for a whopping 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle, when mated to the six-speed manual transmission.
The German automaker has brought along an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version of the Gold Variant to bow in Geneva, as well, and a natural gas-burning TGI BlueMotion is said to be "in the pipeline."

Volkswagen unveils sportier Passat Performance Concept ahead of Detroit debut

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

Ahead of its official unveiling at next week's Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen has released some preliminary details and images of its Passat Performance Concept - a car that, as its name suggests, adds a little more spice to the automaker's midsize sedan formula. VW makes no mention of any production intent for this road-ready-looking sedan, simply stating that the Performance Concept is a way to "explore this practical four-door's sportier side."
It certainly doesn't look too sporty, the only visual upgrades being larger 19-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bi-xenon headlamps with VW's Advanced Front Lighting system, LED taillmaps and carbon-look mirror caps. Inside, there are carbon interior accents and two-tone leather upholstery. But no matter, the real upgrades for this mightier Passat are found below the sheetmetal.
Powering the Performance Concept is a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, churning out 250 horsepower and sending its grunt to the ground via a six-speed automatic transmission. For reference, that's 80 more horsepower than the Passat's base 2.5-liter inline-five, but 20 horsepower less than the potent 3.6-liter VR6. As for other performance upgrades, Volkswagen has fitted the car with a lowered sport suspension and revamped electronic steering, which should indeed add a bit more dynamic feedback to the already nice-driving sedan.
