Volkswagen 1960 Karmann Ghia Convertible / California Car Vw on 2040-cars
Powell, Ohio, United States
|
VW 1960 Karmann Ghia convertible. Great looking vintage Karmann Ghia from California finished in a light mint green exterior with matching interior and like new convertible top and matching boot cover. New Coker Classic white sidewall tires, new exhaust system with stainless steel tailpipes. Recent rebuilt front suspension with new king pin set and link pin set. It's had a recent tune up, oil change and had the brake fluid changed and brakes adjusted. The original 36HP engine has been replaced with a newer 1600 dual port VW engine and runs excellent. The previous owner converted the original 6 volt battery to a 12 volt system but has some additional services needed to finish the conversion as the horn, windshield wipers and original radio are not working. The previous owner installed an MP3 hook-up with speakers in the rear and plug-in contained inside the glove box. The speakers are sitting in the rear and easily removed as they are not affixed to the interior. The headlights, tail lights, and brakes lights are working, but the 2 back-up lights attached to the rear bumper are disconnected. The heater is disconnected. The original chrome door handles and interior trim is in very good original condition and retains its original ivory colored knobs, buttons, etc. Original bumpers are in good original driver quality condition with no major issues. The passenger door window as some gap between the window and the weatherstripping. Whenever we drove the Ghia, we got lots of "thumbs up" and admiring looks. The original Hazet Tool kit attached to the spare tire is NOT included in this auction. If you have any questions or further pictures please contact us. I had the car shipped from California and can recommend an excellent shipper to the winner of the auction. We will not arrange shipping for this car, but will assist the buyer in making it an easy transaction. The 14 photos show the car well. Be sure to use the enlarge and zoom features.

Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion
Sun, 29 Dec 2013How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.
2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition brings exclusivity to the granddaddy of hot hatches
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The Volkswagen booth at this year's Chicago Auto Show was filled with various special edition models of the Beetle and GTI. In addition to the GTI Wolfsburg Edition, the Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition helps to wrap up the 2013 model year as VW readies the all-new MkVII Golf next year.
Only 3,000 of the GTI Driver's Edition models will be produced in four-door body style only, and the available color palette will be limited to just Candy White, Carbon Steel Gray and Deep Black. The package will come standard with the GTI's Sunroof and Navigation package, and it will add unique features such as the 18-inch "Laguna" wheels, a golf-ball shift knob, partial leather seats and red-stitching on the carpeted floor mats. Buyers of this package will also get a certificate of authenticity and some GTI swag such as a hat, keychain and parking sign.
Starting price for the 2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition is $29,695 with the six-speed manual and $30,795 if you choose the DSG - both prices exclude destination charges.
Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva
Sat, 02 Mar 2013With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.
