1969 Volkswagen Squareback on 2040-cars
Stevenson Ranch, California, United States
|
1969 Squareback. New paint, interior (TMI kit) and TMI carpet. Custom roof rack (from Pedro’s Racks), New tires 145 in the front and 165 in the rear, Empi 4 bolt Fuch style wheels, rechromed OG bumpers, West Coast Metric rubber and seals, Flat 4 steering wheel. Fresh tune up and valve adjustment on the stock FI 1600 motor. Runs and looks great. The paint looks good, but this is not a show quality paint job or bodywork, the speedo, fuel gauge and turn signals do not work. (headlights tail lights, brake lights, and reverse do work)/ The battery tray was replaced at one point instead of the piece being cut out and a new piece being welded in, someone riveted a patch in. It does the job, just looks a little frankenstienish. I just started to get a little grind going into 1’st gear. Since this will more than likely be purchased sight unseen, I want to be as accurate in my description as possible. This is a great running mechanically sound vehicle. I drove it to downtown LA over the weekend and drove great; smooth as silk on the freeway. This Squareback needs some minor odds and ends, such as the seat belts being installed, a review mirror, but overall, I’d say this car is 90 - 95% complete. If you are looking for a Squareback that looks badass, you don’t have to always worry about ruining your perfect paint and bobdywork, and can be driven as is while you put a little work into it. This is the car for you. Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions.

1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool
Tue, 04 Jun 2013There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
VW says it has sold over 100,000 TDI diesels in America this year
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Volkswagen Group of America has lit oil-burning fireworks to celebrate the sales of more than 100,000 TDI Clean Diesel vehicles in the US between its VW and Audi brands this year. According to VW, that means it is responsible for more than 75 percent of diesel-engined cars and SUVs sold here - perhaps not surprising when the two brands offer a total of 12 diesel models.
What might be surprising is that the number of diesels isn't far off the estimated sales of 90,000 battery electric vehicles and PHEVs, with 15,000 of those accounted for by the Tesla Model S, another 12,000 or so being the Toyota Prius PHEV.
VW's keen to play up the ease of making diesel part of your life, stressing that it doesn't need any change to the refueling infrastructure and that "this is a technology delivering real answers to society's concerns about fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions without compromises."
VW recalls 1.1M Jetta, Beetle models in US, China over suspension fears
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Volkswagen is recalling about 1.1 million vehicles in China and North America in a newly announced campaign affecting the rear suspensions on some models. For the US, the action covers about 442,265 vehicles, including 400,602 examples of its 2011-2013 Jetta and 41,663 units of the 2012-2013 Beetle and Beetle Convertible. According to Reuters, the recall affects a further 126,000 vehicles in Canada and about 581,090 in China, including related market-specific models like the Sagitar.
The problem can occur if the affected models have a collision to the rear or the side-rear of the vehicle. It's then possible for the trailing arms on the torsion-beam rear suspension to be damaged. If the harm isn't noticed, then the part could fracture while driving. Obviously, a broken rear suspension is going to have an adverse effect on handling.
To fix things, VW dealers will inspect the trailing arms on the models, and they will all receive a sheetmetal part that will make a distinctive sound if broken in the future. If already damaged, the entire torsion beam will be replaced. Obviously, this work will be done at no charge to owners.
