Oneyear only 1967 Volkswagen Beetle
Rebuilt 1600cc motor, runs and drives great. This car was my daily driver for nearly two years. The odometer reads 39,115 however the previous owner did not know if it was correct when I bought the car and as such, I don’t either. I did a lot of work to this car to get it set up as a reliable daily. The car has a 2” narrowed adjustable beam which gets the car low, but not slammed, and has new shocks to match. I lowered the rear to match. The wheels were replaced with stock bug rims, which I had powdercoated satin black. The tires are NEW full size (165s) to keep the ride comfortable. Also while doing this I added all new brakes including brand new drums and bearings. The only modifications I made to the motor are a larger oil breather and electronic ignition for reliability, and the carhas a 12v charging system. The car starts up first try every time. The exhaust was replaced with the “Eurosport” style and it sounds nice, but isn’t obnoxiously loud. The interior is in good shape with the only exceptions being the headliner (new headliner included with the car) shifter knob, and dash grab handle. The car has an Autometer tachometer on the steering column. The front seats have brand new seat covers and the driver’s seat has new seat foam. The rear seat in great shape. The door panels are new as are the grab handles. I installed “Fat Mat” sound deadening on the floors and firewall area. The old grant wheel was replaced with an original style ivory one. The head unit has a pop out touch screen, auxiliary (headphone style) input and is capable all sorts of fancy stuff I never got a chance to use! I added two 6x9” Sony speaker boxes behind the rear seat and a 6” Sony speaker hidden behind the grille in the dash. The car has an older paint job (dark navy/cobalt blue metallic) and some small spots had flaked off. I touched them up to prevent rust. The paint on the rear apron does have some cracks due to the heat from the cars old exhaust.
All in all this is a great car, if I had the space I wouldn't hesitate to keep it. You can jump in this one year only 67 Beetle and drive anywhere!

Touring the Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Forgive the ribbon up top - this isn't so much of a Read This as a Look At This. Ran When Parked took a tour of the sprawling Volkswagen Museum in Wolfsburg, and while there's a spot of text about the different and unique vehicles on display in the rotating exhibits, it's largely the collection of pictures of odd, one-off VW-badged cars and vans that excites. If you're a fan of the weird and wild, this is a post you'll want to look at.
As RWP points out, this is the larger, but less busy, museum targeted purely at Volkswagen products. The smaller AutoStadt museum, meanwhile, covers a much broader swath, with products from other Volkswagen Group members.

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.
VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?
Wed, 30 Jan 2013More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."
