1968 Vw Transporter Truck!!! New Restoration!!! Nice!!! 2 on 2040-cars
Malden, Missouri, United States
|
This is a freshly built and very nice 1968 Volkswagen Transporter Single Cab Truck. This was a 2 owner vehicle before I bought it. The gentleman from Tennessee that I bought it from bought it from the original owner that bought it new. The original owner bought it to use on there bee hive farm to haul the bee hives because the sides of the bed fold down making it easy to unload. The second owner owned it for the last seven years. Once he bought it the professional restoration began. It is powered by a great running 1600CC Dual Port Engine detailed really nice. The 4 speed transmission shifts great. It has fresh 2 tone Blue and White paint. The interior has also been completely redone. There's not many of these around and this one is in excellent condition. It was entered in a VW show in Greenville, SC not long ago and out of 300 Volkswagens it got top 10 honors. Previous owner is a firm believer in keeping original as possible so it has not been lowered. It still has an A/M 8 track player in it from years ago. The bed and body are super straight as is the tailgate and sides. Good tires with blue painted wheels same color as truck. This was a 7 year build because the restorer took his time and did it the right way. Very rare and hard to find in this condition. This will make someone a great little truck and it's priced to sell!!!! |

VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
Volkswagen Golf voted 2013 European Car of the Year
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf just went on sale in Europe, but it is already off to a promising start. Announced as the Geneva Motor Show kicked off, the newest Golf was named European Car of the Year for 2013 in dominating style over cars like the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 twins, Volvo V40, Ford B-Max and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
According to Automotive News Europe, the MkVII Golf won handily over its rivals with a total of 414 votes. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 received 202 votes finishing in a distant second, while the Volvo V40 (189 votes), Ford B-Max (148 votes) and Mercedes-Benz A-Class (138 votes) round out the top five. The new Golf marks the third Volkswagen product to receive the prestigious award with previous cars including the MkIII Golf and the most recent iteration of the Polo.
VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.
