Saint Charles, Missouri, United States
For Sale is a 1962 Volkswagen Beetle Sedan with an original ragtop. This bug came from FL. When I bought this bug I had the intensions of turning it into a Herbie car. The body/fenders/hood & trunk lid, hood, & wheels and seats were taken off and sandblasted in and out. It has always been in my garage with just light surface rust. Sand and prime. It has new floor boards, luggage rack, front trunk clip and one heater channel for the year of the bug already welded into place. All the replacement parts are of higher grade. The passenger side heater channel needs to be welded in to place and there is one small section of the front lower inner fender well that needs to be fixed that you can see in one of the pictures. It well need a small amount of body work then paint. All the fenders/doors look good. The floor and front end has already been painted a gloss black. Comes with a brand new transmission/axels that's already in place. Has all new brakes, and drums/bearings/seals/shocks. I do have all of the original glass except for the drivers and passengers side windows. I have all 4 original fenders, hood & trunk lid. Comes with the steering column & some of the stainless trim window pieces, front and back seats, gas tank, & gauges, front blinkers and back tail lights, head lights, pedals, that were in the car when I got it. Does come with a 1200cc complete motor that was in a baha. I have not heard it run but does turn over. The new motor is a 12 volt 1600 cc dual port turn key motor that has been rebuilt with all new parts and with 0 miles, This matches the trans that's listed above and that's in the car now. I have a new interior kit which includes, carpet, seat covers, head liner, door panels, handles, & grab handles. Also have new front and rear lights, both front and back German bumpers, and Running boards, New Door handles, bolt kit, complete 12 volt wiring kit, seals, top, 2- new tires, complete extra ragtop, and a bunch of used parts for the same year.

I will not take any form of a check. When I bought this car it came with a Florida title that has been signed, but not dated. I never had it titled in my name.

Happy 60th to the VW Karmann Ghia
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Volkswagen's product portfolio may be as extensive these days as any other carmaker in the business. But if you still think of the original Beetle as synonymous with the brand, that's probably because a) you're old and b) the Beetle was the company's only product until the mid-50s.
Sixty years ago Wilhelm Karmann (founder of the eponymous coachbuilder) was in Paris for the auto salon and met up with Luigi Segre and his team from Carrozzeria Ghia who showed him what was essentially a "Beetle in a sports coat." A month later they showed it to Volkswagen chief Heinrich Nordhoff who, setting aside his conservative tastes, approved it for production. And so the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was born, giving the German marque a second product line. It still used Beetle mechanicals and was built at the same Karmann factory in Onsabrück that was already assembling the Beetle Cabriolet.
It took another couple of years to put the design into production, but from 1955 to 1974, Volkswagen and Karmann built 362,601 coupes and 80,881 of the subsequent convertible that arrived in 1957. Today the Onsabrück factory is part of the VW Group, handling production of the Golf Cabriolet, XL1 and Porsche Boxster and Cayman, and with that original Karmann Ghia prototype as part of its factory collection.
Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva
Sat, 02 Mar 2013With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.
VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?
Wed, 30 Jan 2013More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."
