1969 Volkswagen Bug - with NO RUST (Low Reserve)

I have decided it's time for me to finally let go of my 1969 VW.  I have had the car for 2 summers now.  Other than taking it to a couple of shows & cruise nights each summer, it just seems to be sitting in the garage collecting dust.  It's time for me to get something a little more family friendly.  This car was built by a friend of mine that manages a body shop in town, so no expense was spared.  The work was completed about 3 years ago.  The Bug was a pan-off restoration.  

As you can see, there has been a few modifications done to the car.  It has been de-chromed.  This car has a classic VW glass pack exhaust on it - to give it a little rumble.   The bumpers have been removed with the holes filled.  The car has a set of one-piece fiberglass running boards that look pretty trick.  Looking at the pics, you can see the front-end has been lowered, which gives it a little rougher than stock ride.  I liked the look though, so I never complained.  It also has a set of earlier model front fenders with headlight buckets.  Also, the turn signals have been removed from the top of fenders, and the holes filled for a sleeker look (turn signals are now amber bulbs inside front headlight buckets).  It has a custom two-color paint job on it that I have gotten a lot of compliments on.  The rear windows are tinted.  Finally, the front brakes have been upgraded to disc brakes.  

Things I have recently done to the car:
This summer, I replaced the rear rubber trans-axle mounts. I also installed a new battery and a new fuel pump.  There is a newer Empi shifter (about 2 years old) in the car.  

The motor is a 1600 single port (previous owner thought it might have been a 1641 kit, but I have not been able to verify that yet).  I have driven that car the past few summers and put a few thousand miles on it.  It has always started right up, driven fine, and stopped perfectly every time .  Also, the heater outlets have been blocked off as this is just a summer time car.  

Things you should know the car:
The gas gauge does not work.  It was not working when I bought it, and I never got around to looking at it.  I just always made sure to fill up when I left the house.  Also, there is not a horn button in the steering wheel, so at this point it does not have a functional horn.  There is no seat belts mounted in the car.  I've driven it that way for 2 years and just never put lap belts in it.  It does drip a small bit of oil - as most old Volkswagens do.  I have the backseat of the car in my garage but its not currently in it.  

I really hate to see this car go.  I've had a great time with it, and it puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.  

I have described the vehicle to the best of my knowledge. Please keep in mind that this is 44 year old car.  It's a great car to tinker with and there's tons of resources out there.  One of the best things about old VW is the parts of really cheap.  If you would like any additional pics or have any questions, please let me know.  

 If you live in the area, please contact me if you want to come take a peak at it. The vehicle is sold as is, where is - in Fargo, ND.  Buyer is responsible for all transportation costs.  $500 is due within 48 hours of auction end.  Paypal is accepted.  The remainder can be paid via cashiers check, money order, or cash at time of pick-up.  We are willing to store the car up to 30 days - free of charge.

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."

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.
