This is my 1956 Oval Window. I am the 2nd owner of this California Oval. The original owner was my mom's best friend since childhood. I got the bug from her brother who stopped driving it in 83. I got the bug in rough shape. It was originally Diamond Green. It was hit 2 years ago in the left front quarter. I had the section replaced by A&B Restorations in Temple City. I used all original German metal. The paint job is not the best but looks good for a driver. I had the front beam replaced by Jim's VW in Monterey Park along with all new shocks, tie rods, steering, etc. Brakes are fine. New cylinders and master cylinder installed when I began driving it. Along with all new brake lines. He has done all the engine work, maintenance for me. The tires are new with less than 500 miles on them. The numbers match body and pan. I have used this as a daily driver for several years. It has a 36hp motor which I drive on the freeway at 65mph no problem at all. I have been averaging about 35mpg. Original transmission shifts great. Still 6Volt. I had the interior redone by Tito's Upholstery in Rosemead. Seats are in great shape and the cloth headliner is perfect. The pans are in good shape with the exception of directly under the driver seat. It needs to be replaced. There is a patch piece currently there but it needs to have the rusted part cut out and a new quarter pan welded in. I had this done on a 63 Bug I used to own and total cost parts and labor was about $140. All windows are original German glass except the front windshield. The passenger door still needs the rubber replaced which I have (from Wolfsburg West) and the luggage area and engine compartment need the rubber moulding (which I have) Thanks for looking. Clear title with CA yellow plates. More pics on request.

This car drives great. This is one solid bug.

Volkswagen Golf voted 2013 European Car of the Year

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf just went on sale in Europe, but it is already off to a promising start. Announced as the Geneva Motor Show kicked off, the newest Golf was named European Car of the Year for 2013 in dominating style over cars like the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 twins, Volvo V40, Ford B-Max and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
According to Automotive News Europe, the MkVII Golf won handily over its rivals with a total of 414 votes. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 received 202 votes finishing in a distant second, while the Volvo V40 (189 votes), Ford B-Max (148 votes) and Mercedes-Benz A-Class (138 votes) round out the top five. The new Golf marks the third Volkswagen product to receive the prestigious award with previous cars including the MkIII Golf and the most recent iteration of the Polo.

Volkswagen loses thousands of vehicles in Chinese explosion

Thu, Aug 13 2015

Yesterday, a blazing, explosive fireball erupted from a port in the city of Tianjin, in China, lighting up the night sky and shattering windows with the force of 21 tons of TNT. Hundreds were injured and the death toll continues to rise, with the most recent reports claiming 50 were killed. While the human cost of this tragedy simply can't be overstated, it hasn't taken long for corporations to look into what the enormous explosion cost them. And for Volkswagen, the answer is quite a lot. According to our friends at Jalopnik, a Chinese source claims the German giant, which remains one of the PRC's most popular brands, lost thousands of vehicles. The automotive casualty sheet lists 1,065 Touaregs, 391 Beetles, 257 Tiguans, 114 Golfs, 84 Up! minicars, 39 SportVans, and 28 Magotans (a locally built version of the Passat). While those are the only vehicles listed, the Chinese source said over 2,700 vehicles were destroyed. For example, both Land Rover and Renault lost an unspecified number of Discovery SUVs and Koleos CUVs, respectively. The explosion also affected Toyota. Its research and design facility with joint-venture partner Sichuan FAW also suffered an unspecified amount of damage. You can check out the translated source article here. As Google Translate jobs go, though, this one is particularly bad, but it still offers some details of the automotive cost of this disaster.
