By Owner - 1970 Volkswagen Karman Ghia Covertible. 29,060 miles show. Do not know if this is correct, or not.. New top, and lots of work done. In-laws spent over $20,000 restoring this car. Father-in-law is now deceased and my Mother-in-law is in assisted living and no longer drives. New paint, but not the best paint job in the world. They got ripped off for what they paid. Steering wheel cover needs some stiching. Car may need a new fuel pump or just some work on the filter. We are in the process of getting it done and also putting in a new battery, as the car has been in stortage.
I can tell you the in-laws spent over $20,000 on this car they purchased from a family friend. I do not have any idea how that money was allocated, or what was done, other than a new top and paint job, but as I said the paint job leaves something to be desired. I have been told by my wife that some work was done on the engine, which may, or may not be original. Also, do not know if the milage is correct.
Since I cannot give you all of the details with any degree of accuracy the best way to handle this is, if you are not satisfied when you see and drive the car, just pay my Ebay fees of approx. $75.00 and walk away. Winning bidder must post a $500 deposit and the end of the auction. If not satisfied with the car the Ebay fee will be decuted and the balance of the deposit returned. The balance of the payment must be in cash, or iwre transfer. Due to counterfiting, cashiers checks, money orders and personal checks will be accepted, but the tilte will not be issued until the payment clears.
Car is for sale locally and the auction may be ended early if sold. However, in accordance with Ebay polices the car will be taken off the local market if a bid is received.
In the process of getting the VIN # off the title, which is in a safety deposit box.
Car is located in Tarpon Springs, Florida.

VW readying new VR6 with forced induction
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Volkswagen built a stonking, narrow-angle V6 in the 1980s and 1990s that was found in three different generations of the Golf (their performance iterations, obviously), three generations of the Passat, the New Beetle, the Corrado and the Touareg, among other VWs, a spate of Audis, Seats, a Skoda, and even the Porsche Cayenne. It was a sad day when it was announced that it'd be put out to pasture.
Rejoice, though, fans of the venerable VR6, because Volkswagen has a new, modern variant in the works that, according to AutoWeek, features direct injection and can easily be fitted with forced induction. In fact, AW mentions Volkswagen insiders that claim this unit will spawn a production version of the twin-turbo V6 shown on the Design Vision GTI from this year's Wörthersee festival. That unit produced an epic 503 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque.
Don't expect a production unit with that level of power (although it would make a hardy RS4 powerplant), though. In reality, AutoWeek is suspecting anywhere from 340 to 450 horsepower from the new mill. When it arrives at an undisclosed date in the future, it'll likely be found in the Passat and Passat CC as well as the production version of the CrossBlue.
Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.
Skoda Octavia vRS is just the thing for your pumped-up neighborhood
Fri, 26 Jul 2013Skoda, oh Skoda. You're just so cool. Maybe it's the fact that it's a brand that we don't get in these United States, but Skoda's rebadged Volkswagens, in particular the new Octavia vRS shown here, are just different enough from the hum-drum VWs on our shores that the Czech brand seems strangely desirable. Maybe we're just craving forbidden fruit.
This short, minute-long spot covers the new vRS in a world of excess, where strollers ride on 26-inch wheels, lawnmowers feature V8 engines and ice cream cones are the size of toddlers. As things often go in these ads, the Octavia vRS draws the eyes of passerby that are seemingly use to things far more ridiculous than a reasonably priced Czech sedan. In reality, the Octavia should be fairly familiar to American buyers. It uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-pot found in the Volkswagen GTI and Jetta GLI, with 217 horsepower, and sits on the same platform as the Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf. Take a look at the full spot, below.
