1966 VW Bug Convertible/Allstate Trailer Price: $6500
For Sale:1966 VW Bug Convertible with a 1950's Sears Allstate Single Wheel Trailer and many, many spare parts and tools for sale. All VW stuff in my garage must go. The bug itself has what I think is severe rust problems. In the process of taking out the floor pans to replace them, I discovered rusted out sections above the floor pans but below the doors even though I have kept it garaged the whole 10 years I've had it. This goes beyond what I can fix so I need to sell the whole thing.
I bought it in the summer of 2004 from Duffy's Collectible Cars in Cedar Rapids, Iowa for $13,950 and had it delivered to my home here in Mobile, Alabama. I replaced the engine a couple of years later with a brand new 1641 dual port that I had shipped from one of those VW shops in southern California. That engine cost me right at $5,000 and has less than 5,000 miles on it. A few years later I found a nice Sears Allstate Single Wheel Trailer online in L.A. and by the time I bought it and had it shipped to me it was a little over $2,000. About a month after I got the trailer, I had it painted to match the bug, off white and dark blue. I have a pretty good video on youtube of the Bug pulling the trailer around my Court and some videos of VW shows we've been in and won trophies with the Bug in Pensacola, Florida and Gulf Port, Mississippi and Mobile's version of a VW show called "Cruise to the Battleship". That's at youtube.com/ronhmason
Over the years I have accumulated many spare parts and tools and test equipment and it all goes. I'm asking $6,500.00 for the whole thing.
Out of town buyer must make own shipping arrangements.

South Korea to file criminal charges against VW exec

Wed, Jan 20 2016

South Korea has tossed out Volkswagen's recall plans and is preparing to level criminal charges over its handling of the diesel emissions catastrophe, The Wall Street Journal reports. "Recall plans the company submitted to us earlier this month were insufficient and lacked key information, and thus are unacceptable," the South Korean Ministry of Environment said in a statement obtained by the WSJ. A ministry official hinted at the possibility of criminal charges earlier this month if VW's recall plan wasn't satisfactory, the Yonhap News Agency reports, and now it looks like it will actually follow through. According to the WSJ, South Korea has already ordered VW to recall 125,000 vehicles and slapped the automaker with a $12.3 million fine – one of the many countries to do so Â– but if it follows through with criminal charges against the company or its employees, it'd be among the earliest to so. Other countries, including the United States, are still exploring the possibility of criminal charges. Charges would likely come against both Audi Volkswagen Korea and its managing director, Johannes Thammer. It's not clear what the actual charge would be, but the WSJ claims Thammer could be facing up to five years in prison and a fine of 30 million won (around $24,700 at today's rates). For its part, VW officials in South Korea maintains that it is "doing its utmost to resolve the emissions issue" and that it plans to "offer further explanation" to authorities regarding its proposal for an emissions and fuel mileage fix in that country.

Volkswagen shows off performance-ish Passat concept

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

As part of its 2013 Detroit Auto Show debut package, Volkswagen has rolled out a sportier version of the Passat sedan, though it's strictly conceptual for now. A small dose of go-fast visuals have been added to the handsome Volkswagen, including 19-inch wheels, carbon-capped mirrors, an advanced front lighting system, LED taillamps and dual exhaust. Some carbon bits and upgraded leather are found inside the cabin, as well.
But the real performance chops come in the form of a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that sends 250 horsepower to the Passat's front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. That's a good boost in power over the 170 hp of the base 2.5-liter inline-five, but not quite as potent as the 3.6-liter VR6. A lowered sport suspension and revised electronic steering are also on hand, making things slightly more involving out on the road... we assume.
It's not quite the performance concept we were hoping for, but a more enthusiastic Passat isn't necessarily a bad thing. Scroll down for the press release.
