1967 Beetle, first year of 12 volt. 1600 dualport engine with Bugpack shifter and quad exhaust. Single carb. Original pan and heater channels. Originally a "left"coast/ New Mexico car, hence the original sheetmetal. Bumper guards, backup lights and roofrack . New weatherstripping and the runningboards are solid and all gaps line up just fine. Doors, hood and trunk all close as they should, no sagging or mis-alignment.Suspension was gone through and all parts were replaced with new factory components. Chrome hardware shines with a couple of small imperfections. Interior, headliner and dash are perfect and uncut or modified with original VDO gauges, gas & speedometer. The DS seat needed new foam so the previous owner redid the entire interior. The fabric under the rear window is starting to lift by 1 corner. All glass is clear and not foggy or cracked. The PS front window rubber is starting to crack. Easy fix for about $30.00. The original taillights are starting to "fog" up but they are 46 years old.The side rear windows do not popout. That was an option on 1967 models .Rockford Fosgate in dash CD player with remote. Painted two tone in the early 2000's and has been stored indoors in a heated building since. The colors are Frontier Beige / Bombay Ivory. This Beetle runs /stops and steers great but the brakes should be bled due to long-term storage. I did drive it today and the steering is tight, shifts just fine but I suggest going through the brakes prior to any long distance travel. Tires are 100% tread also. Original jack and spare tire along with hubcaps and VIN plate and seatbelts along with owner's manual.  The original color was red but the bodywork and paint are first class with no short cuts or shoddy workmanship evident. Wheelwells and fenders are all metal, no filler, anywhere!! I "chased" this car for ten years from the prior eccentric owner. Look at the pictures and you be the judge. Compare this 1967 to others that are for sale. It always draws a crowd, whether it is driven, parked or at a car show. As always, I strongly advise that this car be looked at in person and I will gladly store indoors until pickup. This VW was on a cover of a local magazine as a first prize in a contest prior to my ownership.  I have a copy of the magazine  with pictures. See the last picture.  I am sure I forgot some of the specifics so just inquire and I will answer all questions as best I can. Odometer shows 45,000 miles. I know that there are less than 10,000 miles since the larger engine was installed and the body was refreshed.   Clear title and I am not looking for any trades at this time. Bidders with less than 10 positive feedbacks will be cancelled. A $500.00 deposit (non-refundable) is due 5 days after the auction ends. Balance to paid in cash prior to the new owner's possession.  Car is also for sale locally and I can cancel this auction at anytime. I am downsizing my collection and this vehicle is being sold as is due to it being 46/47 years old. No surfboard is included with this Beetle.  Check my feedback and bid/own with confidence. I can store this 1967 Beetle until Christmas or Spring 2014. Located  30 minutes from S.Bend airport

VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.

2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring

Wed, 22 May 2013

The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.

Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch

Sun, 20 Apr 2014

This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.
