You are bidding on a 1965 VOLKSWAGEN  * SEDAN , non-operational / registered.  This car is being offered as a builder.The car has been sitting for awhile. Overall condition of body is FAIR.  This car comes with stock low back seats.  Rear seat cushions are there. This vehicle is 99 % complete (missing headlights, but might be buried somewhere, will up-date ad IF found).  As stated, body appears to be in fair condition with the exception of the front clip (where spare tire goes). . Someone has tried to hammered it back as close to original as possible, but...hey, it's a hammer! The right way would be to replace the old metal with new metal.  Both front fenders are new (one can be seen in the picture, taken with the right side passenger door open, next to the running board) - it's black). The rear fenders appear to be fair/good, quarter panels are good, and rear clip show no sign of damage. Stock deck lid fair/good condition, the hood is junk...might have another, will up-date ad if I find one. Has good gas tank, headliner is junk. All the glass is original (has pop-out windows).  Both front & rear bumpers in fair condition. Both doors, in good working condition, windows roll up & down with little ease. There is very little rust on this car, The pan has MAJOR rust issues, but this vehicle comes with new pans (L&R), that will need to be installed.  Steering wheel has cracks, horn ring good, dashboard good, wiring appears to be 'OK' (notice the 12 volt flasher), there is no radio. If you look close, you can see the keys hanging from the glove box. The tires are not in good condition (fair rollers), but will need replacement if you plan to rebuild and drive this vehicle.  Running condition UNKNOWN....comes with a 1500 cc motor. This mystery motor appears to be complete, and turns by hand, and that's about it....it's a real beauty! Oh, the engine compartment has 'webber holes' (see pictures)  I can't guarantee it, but I'm sure we have all the parts that go with this car, including the headlights...I will continue to look and up-date the ad if I locate them. As it stands now, what is being shown in the pictures is what you are bidding on.   Note: I'm not sure of exact mileage, so I listed as 100.000.  Not sure where the license plates are, but we have them....please see all pictures. Located in Salinas, California and is being sold AS-IS and WHERE-IS. As I stated, this vehicle is being offered as a builder, there's no good reason this car can't be up and running with a little effort. Comes with a clear pink slip..

  Please note: I'm selling this car for a friend. If you have any questions or need additional pictures please email me and I will do my best to answer them (please, don't wait until the last day to ask, this car is a few miles from my home). The successful bidder will need to move the vehicle with-in one week (7 days) after purchase. Additional time may be granted, however buyer will need to contact me for approval.  I'm not in a position to actually move the vehicle, however I can assist in making
arrangements. Thank you and good luck bidding!

Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.

Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union

Sat, 30 Aug 2014

The struggle over unionization at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. There's now a second union fighting to organize at the plant; although this one is staunchly against the actions of the United Auto Workers. At the same time, the UAW is still signing up voluntary members to its recently created Local 42 at the facility and is reportedly near having a majority of the hourly employees on its side.
The new, anti-UAW union campaign is being spearheaded by employee Mike Burton, according to Reuters, and he calls his group the American Council of Employees. He claims to already have 108 signatures in support of his organization. Burton believes that the UAW is harmful to businesses, and his goal is to force another vote to determine a preferred union among workers.
The UAW was initially defeated (712 to 626) when it attempted a union vote at the Tennessee plant in February. However, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel told Reuters that Local 42 has already signed up over 700 members. If it can reach a majority of the roughly 1,500 employees, the group hopes VW might consider recognizing it as the factory's union.

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
