It has the twelve volt system and come with the stock 1600 engine. The engine has been rebuilt to factory specs. 1973 is noted for changes in the Bug construction, the first year of the curved windshield. Also noted the same year, the new flow through ventilation system, and of course a new redesigned, more modern and padded dashboard. Also larger turn signals on the fenders for better visiability were installed this year too! The transmission and clutch are working perfectly. The engine starts up every time, brakes are good, electrical works fine, all the lights are good. Has an aftermarket radio and extra speakers. The owner put in a little center console to put knick knacks in. Seats are good and comofortable. It is a nice fun car. It is a good solid origninal car. Ready to jump in and drive, or set up for a full restoration. It does show a little wear in places from age, but easily fixable. Tires are new, drives and handles well. The rear convertible top window has about 50% visability. Nice dash cover with an added tachometer. Chrome wheels are dazzling. In the trunk you will find an original set of those cocomats that were so popular in days gone by. Engine complartment clean and all seals, gaskets and metal covers are all in place. A very complete car. The speedometer reads 39,720 miles, and clear title in hand.

Fun on the Run

The Convertible had two owners. The second owner was obsessed with the car. Had it painted a nice red. The contrasting black convertible top in great condition and noted not even a tear in the headliner. This Bug has been in the garage for the past six years, so there is no rust anywhere. A true California car. The owner decided to buy another bug and now is working on that one and decided that it was time to pass this convertible on to someone who would continue to love and appreciate it and mostly have a lot of fun with it. Nothing like throwing the top down and a nice drive up the California coast, life could not be better. If you are looking for a nice bug convertible that needs no repairs and just ready to tackle the road, this is the car. Don't let this one slip away.

Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.

VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.

VW brands excluded from Wards 10 Best Engines for 2016

Tue, Oct 6 2015

You definitely won't be seeing a powerplant from Volkswagen or Audi on the 2016 Ward's 10 Best Engines list. In a serious rebuke against them, WardsAuto is excluding all VW/Audi powertrains for at least this year after the German automakers' ongoing emissions regulations evasions. There's no guarantee of the companies returning for 2017, either. In a story on its website, WardsAuto executive editor Tom Murphy writes that the ban lasts "until we are convinced the culture of deceit has been purged, fines have been paid and regulators are satisfied." That could be a while, the way things are looking. The exclusion knocks three powertrains out of the running for this year's list. As a winner last year, WardsAuto would usually test VW's 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder again for 2016. Plus, it planned to check out the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the Audi A6 and the plug-in hybrid from the A3 Sportback E-Tron. In the story, Murphy finds VW's actions particularly despicable because of what they could be doing to the popularity of diesel passenger cars in this country. "BMW, Mercedes-Benz, General Motors, and Fiat Chrysler also sell light-duty diesel engines in the US, but their sales outlook suddenly has grown murky, thanks to VW's shenanigans," he writes. So far, Jaguar Land Rover is remaining confident of US consumers continuing to buy diesel models, though. We'll be able to see the real effects of VW and Audi's ban in a few months because the 2016 Ward's 10 Best Engines will be published December 10. With two major automakers out of the running, their rivals will likely greet this as a better chance to make the grade.
