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 Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show
Thu, 23 Jan 2014If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.
BMW, Ferrari, VW cars use tungsten mined by terrorists
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Bloomberg Markets is reporting that BMW, Volkswagen and Ferrari have been using tungsten ore sourced from Columbia's FARC rebel terrorists. The extensive story focuses on Columbia's illegal mining trade and calls into question the provenance of the rare ore that is used not only in crankshaft parts production, but is also found in the world's computing and telecommunications industry for use in screens.
The ore is mined by the FARC (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia, or Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia - People's Army), and exported to Pennsylvania, where it is refined. The refined ore is then sent over to Austria, where a company called Plansee turns it into a finished product. Now, it's important to note that we aren't talking about the world's supply of tungsten here. In 2012, Plansee's American refinery purchased 93.2 metric tons of tungsten, valued at $1.8 million. That's peanuts, with the entire Colombian tungsten mining industry producing just one percent of the world's supplies.
That doesn't make indirectly supporting FARC any more acceptable, though. BMW, VW and Ferrari are all committed to not accepting mineral supplies from the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is also in the grips of a guerrilla insurrection funded, in part, by illegal mining. The same commitment would figure to extend to Colombian mining, but as BMW points out, it's difficult for a multi-national manufacturer to know where every item in its supply chain comes from. A company spokesperson says as much, telling Bloomberg, "These few grams out of the billions of tons of raw materials passing through the BMW supply chain are of no practical relevance."
