When I bought it I didn't know what to look for so be careful when buying a old bug.Had to rebuild the front end. New Swing arms and Bushing, all new tie rods complete linkage. Had it professionally aligned at a German car repair outfit. She goes straight all the time, especially when stopping. This is a long list. New shocks, front bearings, rear suspension rubber stops. Has the original smog system on it,I went to great lenghts to get it right- all the correct hoses from the gas tank to the charcoal filter to the original air box.Rebuilt motor, with next size up cylinder she runs strong. New Crossover tube for carburetor, new carburetor, new german distributor NOS (new old stock), new alternator , original air box, new muffler,I added the aftermarket oil filter system when the motor was rebuilt so it sports a real oil filter..Good spare in front with new cardboard trunk covers. Has the original jack and hub cap remover. All new windshield whipper hardware, original stuff. New rubber around the motor area.
Upholstery and Paint are nice and were done by previous owner, he was into cosmetics and nothing else. The Headliner has been redone with the sun visors, they are not original but look very factory and new. And the heater works, new cables and original German Hoses that actually transfer lots of heat. I sandblasted the rims and had the paint heat baked on, 4 new tires. The rims are original and look great, slapped new hub caps on as well, there good quality not chinese but not German. Parts that I have that I have not installed. New window hardware$200, New rubber kit for windows includes all door and window rubber and felts $300, A original steering wheel with no cracks $350, new turn signal unit $150, new windshield washer switch and all hardware to make it work with the air in front tire$200. I also have brand new rubber and end caps for the front and rear bumpers, Note the bumpers are original, Bug City says they are hard to find with the originals. I would say its a daily driver, and one of the best looking Beetles rolling around my neck of the woods. You can just jump in and go. Of all the cars that I own this is the one you can count on to take you somewhere. Starts every time, runs strong very dependable. Like with all 40 year old vehicles there is a couple things that need to be fixed up, but its ready to drive. Anyone who has driven it always comments on how nice it drives and looks. Some of my friends have begged me to drive it they love it. I get more compliments on it than any car I have ever owned. It's real COOL.. |

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.
Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish
Wed, 10 Jul 2013A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.
