First year for the Super Beetle!  The 71 - 72's are unique. First years for MacPherson Strut suspension and the long hood but they still have the flat windshield.  

This car runs great, plenty of power and shifts fine.  
Did not ever have much rust.  Rear floorboard was rusty, prob because of the battery.  I cut that out and replaced it; see the pictures. 
Heater tubes and everything else were in good shape.    
Body is straight.  New paint has some dust and a bug or two in it but it's sprayed on thick so you can rub that stuff out if it bothers you. 
Brakes are fine,  I've replaced one leaky wheel cylinder, the linings are fine.
E-brake works!  
Tail lights are from an older standard beetle. I like the look.  There are no backup lights!  I'll include the stock taillights if you need backup lights.
Tires are almost new.  
Sony cassette stereo works like a champ.  If you don't want it I'll gladly keep it.
I'll include the box  'o' parts and the books.  Check out the cool oil filter wrench!    
Not everything is hooked up.  There is no horn, I don't have the passenger side windshield wiper arm, the motor does work though.  The washer is not hooked up.  Car was originally air conditioned but most of that stuff is long gone.  Heater is not hooked up but could be. It's just missing those silver tubes that go from the fan to the heat exchange.    
This is a solid car that drives and stops and turns heads!
Clear NC title in my name.  Buyers responsible for figuring out what your state requires to get it transferred.  Buyers also responsible for shipping. It can be driven home if you live within a reasonable distance of me.  
Low reserve!  I am going to try to sell it locally so I will end the auction if that happens.  If the reserve is met I will not end it, of course.  Thanks and I'll be glad to answer any questions.

Volkswagen bringing driver assistance systems to its 2016 lineup

Sat, Aug 1 2015

Chevrolet isn't the only manufacturer rolling out luxury safety technologies on a 2016 mass-market lineup. Volkswagen has just announced that next year it will begin adding driver assistance systems to its lineup here in the States – stuff that was previously only available on Audi and Porsche models here, or Volkswagens in Europe. Adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, and autonomous braking will be standard on the CC V6 4Motion, optional on certain trims of the Golf and Jetta. Blind spot monitoring will be standard on the Beetle, and top CC and Jetta trims, but optional on the Golf and lower Jetta variants. Automated parking will be available on Golf models, including the e-Golf. Blind spot assistance with rear traffic alert, lane departure warning, park distance control, and an automatic post-collision braking system also come in the technology kitty, all of which will be packaged at prices between $695 and $1,495. Infotainment options take a bit step up, too, with every VW model but the Touareg being fitted with touchscreens. The new MIB II head unit comes in four sizes, the Beetle, Jetta, and Tiguan getting the smallest, five-inch screen as standard but upgradeable to a 6.5-inch screen. Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and MirrorLink are integrated into that larger screen. The interface is improved by a faster processor, higher resolution, and better graphics, and some will come with swiping and pinch-to-zoom functionality. The two press releases below lay it all out in detail. VOLKSWAGEN DEMOCRATIZES HIGH-END DRIVER ASSISTANCE FEATURES FOR THE 2016 MODEL YEAR Many models in the 2016 Volkswagen lineup offer new driver assistance systems that used to be the sole preserve of premium and luxury vehicles Herndon, VA Jul 29, 2015 — For the 2016 model year, Volkswagen is offering a host of driver assistance features that were only previously available on the premium Touareg SUV—and adding some new ones that truly democratize driver assistance for the compact sedan and compact hatchback classes. These available features include: Forward Collision Warning and Autonomous Emergency Braking (Front Assist); Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC); the Parking Steering Assistant (Park Assist); and an active Lane Departure Warning (Lane Assist) system. The Beetle, CC, e-Golf, Golf, Golf GTI, Golf R, Golf SportWagen, and Jetta offer these available features, depending on model and trim line.
