Type Iii, Fastback Base 1.6l , Vw, Fastback, Bug, Thing, Mg, Fiat, Mini on 2040-cars
Santa Cruz, California, United States
Up for auction is this 1967 California Black Plate Type III VW
Fastback. I purchased the car from and older lady, and
her daughter. I have never been much into VW’s but this one captured my attention. On
tight windy roads this car actually handles better than my 67 GTO. These cars are not your average bug , as they
are distinct. I have found that even in her current condition some
who are not familiar with Type III’s become
curious about them, as they are unique. Type III's utilize a
pancake motor and thus have two trunks.
One in the front and rear of the
vehicle. They were available in three models. Squareback, Notchback and Fastback models. This
car is a running drivable car. Her name
is Heildigard (Hilldi for short). She has some rust although is an overall solid
car. Floor pan patches are needed at drivers area near pedals and under battery as far as I can tell, also in areas shown in photos. This
is not the car to buy for your son or daughter to be driven as is. She does need work. It is a good project for the person with
mechanical skills, or to be handed over to a repair specialist. Hagertry Classic Car Insurance stated the value of this particular model restored
was $17,000. The brakes need attention to drive Hilldi as she is. The car
does run and drive as stated in the auction listing and comes with a carpet
kit. We are not sure if the mileage is actual or exceeds the limits of the odometer, No mileage noted on title (pink slip). Please see odometer photo. The car should be trailored, or
trucked to her new home if your are the winning bidder. The
car is for sale with no warranty , where is.
Buyer has the sole responsibility for cost of transportation of the vehicle to her new home. I will make myself available to coordinate with
your shipper for pick up from its current location.
I have described the vehicles condition to the best of my ability. Please order your own inspection prior to
bidding with ample time for review prior
to auctions end. This is
your chance to a special piece of automotive history. Type III
VW’s are fuel efficient becoming
less and less common. Title
in hand ready to singed over to the winning bidder. If car is sold, and or shipped outside of the state of California license plates are not included as part of vehicle sale. We reserve the right to end the auction at
any time, as the car is for sale locally.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
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.
Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program
Tue, 04 Oct 2011You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing.
