THIS IS A NO RESERVE LISTING.
This is my 1966 Volkswagen Beetle with 32,100 original miles. This is a fun, great-driving, superb Beetle that is tons of fun in every way. This is probably one of the nicest '66 Beetles you will find for sale anywhere.
1966 is a special, highly collectible year for the original Beetle. These cars are becoming harder to find in clean, solid, rust-free condition.
This is a totally reliable, dependable car that I would trust to drive anywhere.
This car was restored two years ago by a father and son team. They started with a clean, solid rust-free body. At that time the paint job was new, as well as the carpet and interior door panels. The 1300cc engine was rebuilt as well. They also installed modern 3-point shoulder belt seatbelts for safety.
This car starts, runs and drives great. This car will go 70 mph on the highway with no trouble.
The car has the original 6V electrical system which works very well. There is an ignition kill switch under the dash. The fuel gauge, speedometer and odometer work great. The wipers, lights and signals work great as well. The tires have nearly full tread.
This car has a reproduction bamboo-style roof rack with a fiberglass surfboard on top which is included with the car. This car gets attention everywhere you drive. The original radio is present but doesn't turn on. A modern USB/3.5mm input audio setup is in the car for listening to iPod, etc.
The only part of the interior that wasn't redone was the seats- the front seat cushions are good but the front seatback upholstery is worn. Seat upholstery kits are very inexpensive for these cars.
This car starts and runs great. The clutch is strong and the transmission shifts though all the gears very well. The brakes stop well, and the steering and suspension are tight. This car is easy and fun to drive. This is a great-driving, fun car that someone has already put all the time and effort into- and now it is ready to enjoy.
This is a 1966 car and as such it is not brand new- please expect normal wear and tear consistent with the age of the car. This is not a perfect showroom condition car, but rather a very nice reliable driver that is clean and in great shape. You cannot put gas in this car without answering a bunch of questions from onlookers!

Volkswagen feuds with thriving stablemate Skoda
Wed, Oct 4 2017BERLIN, Oct 4 (Reuters) - Volkswagen managers and unions are seeking to curb competition from lower-cost stablemate Skoda, move some of its production to Germany and make the Czech brand pay more for shared technology, company sources told Reuters. As VW struggles to cut jobs and spending at German factories and turn the page on dieselgate, Skoda's superior car reviews and profitability have intensified the brands' rivalry within the Volkswagen empire. VW now wants to reduce what it sees as Skoda's unfair advantages - combining German technology with cheaper labor - and reaffirm the top-selling brand's primacy ahead of a wave of new electric car launches, the sources said. The tussle between VW and Skoda is reviving tensions at the heart of the Volkswagen group between profits and jobs, and between central control and autonomy for its 12 vehicle brands. "Instead of devoting our efforts to beating Tesla, we may just be setting up a futile internal conflict," said one manager. Once the butt of jokes, Skoda has blossomed under 26 years of VW group ownership into a successful mid-market carmaker, steadily winning business from rivals - including VW - and surpassing even Audi's operating profit margin last year. At the same time, VW is facing thousands of job cuts as management moves to trim excess capacity at German factories. Its powerful domestic unions see Skoda's success as both a threat and a potential lifeline. VW workers' representatives are now demanding the transfer of some Skoda production to their underused German plants, a source close to the supervisory board told Reuters. The proposal aims to offset declining output of the VW Passat and aging Golf that could otherwise threaten more jobs. They are also making the case that Skoda should pay higher royalties to use VW's main common vehicle platform. The so-called MQB architecture also underpins mid-sized models from the group's Audi and SEAT brands. Responding to the news, Czech Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka said he would meet Skoda management and unions to ask for clarification. The government will seek to ensure that VW investment plans are followed through and that "production is not moved outside the country," a statement released by Sobotka's office said. Skoda's main union warned that a production shift could cost as many as 2,000 jobs. VW's works council declined to comment.

Audi diverting a third of R&D budget to electrification
Tue, Jul 19 2016Companies make promises all the time. We'll do X by Y. The new A will be our biggest seller in B. You know the drill. But it's when an automaker puts its money where its mouth is that we really stand up and take notice. That's precisely what Audi is doing as it attempts to convert 25 percent of its sales to electrified vehicles by 2025. Citing two sources with knowledge of Audi's plans, Reuters reports that around a third of the company's research-and-development budget will go to " electric cars, digital services, and autonomous driving." Of course, shifting that much money over to newer technologies means sacrifices elsewhere – Reuters' sources claim Audi will move money away from combustion engines and reduce country-specific powertrain variants, but the sources wouldn't get more specific. According to Reuters, Audi is 22nd in total sales of hybrids and EVs. That's eight spots behind Mercedes and ten spots behind BMW (not to mention hybrid-happy Lexus). Audi's only electric representatives in the US market are the A3 e-Tron and Q5 Hybrid and things aren't much better in Europe – the company needs to dump buckets of money into expanding its meager lineup to bring up the percentage of EVs it sells. Expect greater detail on Audi's electrification plans very soon – CEO Rupert Stadler will discuss the company's path forward on Wednesday at a closed-door meeting in Munich with over 2,000 managers. It's unlikely all those managers will be able to keep quiet. We'll be listening.
