This is a classic 1966 vw beetle, with 114500 original miles. The car was utilized until 1977, then stored until 2008 when it was inherited by the original owner's nephew. However due to lack of  vw restoration knowledge he opted to sell. We then purchased the car at that time hoping to do a full restore, however due to unexpected obligations we will not have the time for this restoration project.

So here is your chance for a profitable and fun retoration project at a very nice price!
The car runs and drives, and features an original 66 F series motor that has been rebuilt to 1500 cc's for better freeway response.
Motor has 400 miles and the transmission, body, floor pan and front end body tag all match!
It has the original door panels in brick red, the rear two are in very good condition, but the front need to be replaced
The right seats have been installed, (missing when purchased) (they do need the right color covers) the headliner is original and intact.
The rear package area carpeting in red is still there, and the floor pad is in place.
The body work (minor block sanding and leveling) on the car needs to be completed, and for the diehard like myself repainted the L87 pearl white
Or make it your own color choice!
The original black plates come with the car, and it has the newer white plates that the nephew received from the DMV in 2008
All the original German sheet metal is there except for the decklid which was replaced with a OG decklid, and just needs the 1300 script put on.
(included)
The main harness has been redone, and electrics are all working , including dome light
Gas tank has been boiled out and vent cleared, no gas smell inside of car.
Still has whats left of original trunk cover!
Good pan with no rust holes; drivers side jack point needs to be reattached

Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show

Mon, 05 Mar 2012

The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.

Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.

VW, Suzuki mulling rekindling relationship in face of legal battle

Sat, 27 Jul 2013

Volkswagen and Suzuki have been undergoing marriage counseling in a bid to avoid finalizing their nasty divorce. The blissful union has been troubled for some time, with Volkswagen claiming that it could affect operational decisions at Suzuki, and the Japanese brand's sniping and constant flirting with a certain Italian temptress causing rifts.
The matter first went to court in 2012, when Suzuki demanded VW get out, and leave its 19.9-percent stake in the Japanese brand in a box to the left. Now, Automotive News is reporting that the company will give the relationship one last shot, according to closed-door dealings between the two in London.
Still, it's understood that VW and Suzuki recognize the benefit of their alliance, and that it'd be in the best interests of the kids both parties to make things work. Spokespeople declined to comment to AN, but the newsmagazine spoke with Frank Biller, an analyst for LBBW in Stuttgart, who said, "Both companies stand to benefit if they can overcome the disagreements over leadership claims."
