This is a rare car that you don't see every day. I've seen numerous Squarebacks and Notchbacks in the type III category but I have never seen a Fastback. Although it still needs some work to be complete, it is a cute care that always catches the eye as you drive by.
The interior is probably the biggest challenge for this car. The seats need redone, the weatherstripping needs replaced, and the electronics in the dash need to be rewired. On the exterior the car probably needs new tires along with an alignment. The windshield has a crack in it. The paint needs some touch up points; there are a few dings in the paint, mainly a big spot on the drivers side door which is showing surface rust. There is a picture of it down below.
Like I said this is a custom car, the door handles have been shaved off. This means that there is a small button on the doors which pop the doors open and the trunk and hood have a button also. The original drum brakes have been upgraded to disc brakes and the front end has been lowered 2-3 inches. The biggest thing about this car is it has a brand new engine with only 1000 miles on it. I was told by a mechanic that it is an air-cooled 1800cc engine.
I bought this car in hopes of fixing it up and making a daily driver of it. But being a college student, it's hard to find the time to take on this project. When I have driven it though through town or down the highway, I always get looks, and somebody always wants to ask me about the car. The main question I get is 'What kind of car is that?' because this car is a classic that people haven't seen in over 30 years. Enjoy bidding and if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me.

Jay Leno takes a ride in Gabriel Iglesias' classic 1966 VW bus
Tue, Feb 3 2015We've seen Jay Leno driving all manner of vehicles, many of them epically fast. But few (this is side of his steamers, anyway) have been as slow – or quite as beautiful – as this classic 1966 Volkswagen Samba. While many of the vehicles featured on episodes of Jay Leno's Garage have actually been from Jay Leno's own garage, the former talk-show host has been known to feature some interesting rides from fellow comedians. A couple of weeks ago it was Adam Carolla's '68 Lamborghini Islero, and this vintage, pristine VW bus belongs to Gabriel Iglesias. It's in beautiful condition and is a sight to see, even if it has a little trouble making its way down the highway. Or starting up again after a quick snack break.
Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch
Sun, 20 Apr 2014This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.
