AWSOME RUNNING AND DRIVING 68 VW CUSTOM "NO RESERVE" I purchased this fun little VW a couple of weeks ago from a fella in North Carolina that I was delivering a 29 Model A frame to. He made me such a great deal that now fellow ebayers should be able to get a fun time for a good price. I have only driven the buggy about 20 fun filled miles but I got a good feel for the condition right away. The little Roadster starts right up and idles just like it should with no funny noises, oil or exhaust leaks. The engine, which I do not know the size of pulls strong with no skips or flat spots in the power band. The transaxle and transmission work perfectly with gear selection and clutch sharp and crisp, no play in shifter. The vehicle ran down the road strait and true and stopped strait with no pull from the 4 wheel drum brakes. The wheels are CABO's with 245/35ZR 20s all the way around with about 80% tread left. The body is a full fiberglass replacement finished in yellow Rhino lining for durability and ease of cleaning. It has a working speedometer, tach and oil pressure gauge (40 psi @ idle). The interior is carpeted thru out the cockpit in black with nice yellow piping against the firewall and the transaxle tunnel. Yellow shifter boot and e-brake cover along with the nicely covered (no tears or holes) front and back seats finish off the interior. The VW is 100% street legal with working headlights, tail lights, turn signals, brake lights, horns and seat belts front and back. The outside tub of the vw is finished in cut to fit stainless steel sheeting and has linear 2' white lights located. The bikini top is practically new and shows no age. It has a working Kenwood stereo with removable color matching speaker box. The only non working items are the fuel gauge and volt gauge which I will try to sort out before the auction ends. The engine is dressed with headers, see thru dist cap, chrome air cleaner, chrome belt cover and chrome valve covers. Overall the VW roadster is in above average condition with below average normal wear and tear for the year and quality of the conversion. The roadster is not perfect and is showing some age on the chrome front bumper, some chipping and surface cracking in the fiberglass and interior scuff marks from getting in and out of the vehicle but overall presents itself very well in pictures and in person. I have done my best to describe this vw and it comes with no warranties written or implied however, If you the buyer upon delivery in person feel like I have lied or deceived you in any way in this description I will refund your deposit minus fuel cost (if I deliver) and we can go our separate ways still friends.. I can deliver the VW up to 750 miles from 36067 on an open trailer for $1.25 a loaded mile. If over 750 we can negotiate. Please feel free to ask questions or request additional pictures. |

Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.
VW using other manufacturing locations as leverage in battle with TN [w/video]
Sat, 26 Apr 2014We've reached a new step in the ongoing drama at Volkswagen's factory in Chattanooga, TN. The United Auto Workers recently dropped its opposition to the union vote and agreed that it wouldn't hold another ballot for at least a year. Now, the new question becomes where VW is going to build its forthcoming midsize SUV.
Earlier, it had been considered all but certain that the SUV, likely a production version of the CrossBlue concept (pictured above), would be built in Tennessee. However, it seems the Chattanooga factory might have competition to produce it. In emails obtained by The Detroit News, VW's lawyer wrote to the Tennessee economic development department in January saying, "While we understand there are some 'non-deal' issues that are causing a delay in the TN solution, VW has been successful in reaching agreement on terms at the alternative locations."
As previously reported, the state of Tennessee allegedly offered VW about $300 million in incentives to build the vehicle there and create an estimated 1,350 jobs, but it later rescinded the deal. Newly leaked documents from NewsChannel 5 (WTVF-TV) in Nashville allegedly show just how close that offer was to being completed. It appears that VW actually sent the government the first draft of a memorandum of understanding agreeing to the incentives, but the state removed the offer in late January.
Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
