This was my car as a teen. 6 years ago I decided it was time to restore. A very accomplished guy in my area put brand new floorpans, (high quality) Did some suspension work and then I sent it to another state for restore. The guy started out doing a great job. bodywork, replacement parts and wheels and tires, disk brakes all around and primed and painted.

My local guy built a 1776 motor with dual carbs and I shippped motor to restore guy to put in car. I finally picked car up and restore guy said motor was having some issues  (normal) so i took it back to local guy to go over it. I picked it a couple months later and the molding was falling off and a small amount of rust was developing on rear pillar. I then got to looking and noticed restore guy decioded to get a little cheap on me and skimp on parts. I decided to redo the interior that was shoddy and forget about it. I cranked car on regular basis to keep it up while I worked on interior. One day the belt slung off while i was cranking it and I got busy at work and just lost interest. The motor was running when this happened and that was 1 year ago, the car has been sitting there and now it has to go

THE GOOD: All in all the body is tight when you close doors. great glass in it, headliner appears to be fine, good paint on inside, speedo is set back to 0 but has 3 miles on it when I did take it round the block. tires and rims are good all lights worked and speedo worked and lit up. Car fired right up. Motor would scoot, all new wiring harnesses

THE UGLY: Interior needs to be done, inside doors needs to be redone as the were not in the first place (restore dude sucks) small rust on back pillar see pics, Engine needs belt if it needs anything else I do not know I'm not a mechanic. Window cranks need reworking. It needs a hood and hardware for it. i have the seats but they need to be redone and they are not releasing like they should, All runer around rear truck is gone

I'm tired of seeing this car sit there and not be with someone that can bring it back to life. It's just not going to happen with me. If your near me I can deliver for a fee. other than that you are responsible for pickup or delivery

NO RESERVE

Volkswagen Tiguan and Touareg take the R-Line

Mon, 14 Jan 2013


Volkswagen's Detroit Auto Show presence is big on utility this year, with the CrossBlue three-row concept vehicle occupying the lion's share of the limelight, both literally and figuratively. But that isn't stopping Volkswagen from lavishing attention on its already established crossover and sport utility vehicles with new R-Line derivatives. The Tiguan and its big brother Touareg are getting a host of look-faster items to increase their sporting appeal.
On the outside, the Tiguan R-Line receives handsome 19-inch alloys peering out from beneath fender extensions, premium lighting (bi-Xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lamps), along with matching side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. On the inside, sportier accommodations include aluminum trim and a flat-bottom steering wheel with paddle shifters. As with other R-Line models, there are no powertrain modifications to go with the more aggressive visuals (that being the province of R standalone performance models like the R32), though the suspension has been firmed up an unspecified amount. The Tiguan R-Line will be available in front- or all-wheel drive configuration.
