Evergreen Park, Illinois, United States

 This listing is for a PINK 1973 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible.
The previous owner (I am the third owner) painted it pink (Sherwin Williams Lipstick Pink) to use for a fundraiser, allowing signatures on the body of the car in black marker. These marks can easily be removed or buffed out.
The engine does not run, and it needs a new engine. All other mechanics are running fine.  (Currently the Beetle is located at a VW specialty mechanic's shop in Evergreen Park, Illinois and this mechanic has capability to locate and install a new engine, at the buyer's responsibility)
The interior is in remarkably good shape for the vehicle's age, the only flaw is the glove compartment door is missing.
The body of the vehicle looks great, I have examined the car and found no flaws or rust.

I cannot ship or move this vehicle, the buyer will have to tow or ship. Unless other arrangements are made with the VW mechanic shop owner.
Upon a successful auction, I would like a deposit via PayPal ($500) with the remaining balance paid via Cash, Cashier's Check at the time of pick up. I have a clear title which I will provide along with a bill of sale at time of pick-up as well.

If you are local to Chicagoland and would like to see the vehicle BEFORE bidding, please e-mail me though eBay and I would be happy to set up a time during the mechanic's business hours.

Any questions, PLEASE feel free to contact me. I am selling this car simply because I don't have a place to store it and cannot currently afford to replace the engine. It is a lovely Beetle, in remarkable condition and I am very sad to see it go.

Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

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."
