This is a very complete 1970 original condition beetle.  It was removed from long term storage this spring.  


It has 3 new wheel cylinders(I have a 4th new but haven't changed).  All new brake shoes.  The ignition has been replaced with an electronic ignition and new plugs and wires were added. The oil was changed and the beetle has been started up and yard driven.  The brakes may still need some bleeding.  I picked up some used aftermarket wheels and tires, because the original rims had very dry rotted tires. 

It has a very clean pan, the doors shut impeccably,  all original glass, and the seats, door panels, dash board, vinyl floor are in excellent shape.  The headliner is in need of replacement, and the original radio is missing.

You also get an extra set of wheels, tow bar to bring it home, and an excellent condition roof rack.

The body is rot free.  There is some surface rust. There are a few dings. There is damage to the body on the drivers side where the bumper mounts to the tire well.  This had a makeshift repair made some time ago.

This is a solid bug and a great candidate for restoration, or do some additional work to have a driver.

Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

Meet Brad, Sheena and Nacho
Driving through China is a pricey proposition. The couple will need to pony up a staggering $19,514 just to cover the fees.
Brad and Sheena Van Orden are in the midst of a life-defining campaign to travel around the world, and they're doing it in a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon custom built for the occasion. The past 15 months have seen the couple quit their jobs with Gore-Tex and drive from Arizona to the very southern tip of Argentina after spending a full two years saving and preparing for the trek. Now they're in southern Asia gearing up for the next leg of their journey.

Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.
