Answer :This was purchased from Germany by the previous owner (PO) . Was available as an option evidently by VW but not in the states. The rubber itself is colored it is not painted. Question asked regarding date of 2007 on one picture? Answer Picture was included to show that although the restoration was completed originally in 2007 the car is still fresh and new looking .Paint, Glass, chrome, rubber seals, interior window felt guides all excellent; no rust, no paint flaws due to poor paint prep after 7 yrs. The quality of the car speaks for itself as the testament of a high quality restoration is how it stands up over time. This one is aging beautifully!! Question asked how many horse power is the 40hp engine now? Answer engine is now around 52 hp . It's 1385cc. The MSD electronics and increase displacement work together well. MSD is a leader used since the 80's in the racing circuit. The spark is controlled by a computer with many multi sparks at lower speeds and longer duration sparks up the advance curve. This burns virtually all the fuel in the cylinder provides great gas mileage saves engine bearings and increases performance/power.
On May-20-14 at 20:08:01 PDT, seller added the following information: Question What does the car have on the underside for rust protection ? Answer new pans and complete underside were epoxy coated and then 3m truck bed liner applied very strong stuff. Question Noticed a front hood badge in the pictures I thought 62 was the last year for the Wolfsburg crest badge? Answer I've been told that early production 63 cars still had the left over Wolfsburg crests on the front hood. This car built in Feb. so would be correct as it's actually an early car for 63. Please refer to picture of Birth certificate. thanks great questions |

Volkswagen CrossBlue previews a three-row future, diesel-hybrid power [w/video]
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Volkswagen looks to be getting ready to jump into the large three-row crossover game. The automaker has officially pulled back the curtain on the CrossBlue Concept at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Designers and engineers penned the machine specifically for the Canadian and US markets, and with a plug-in diesel electric hybrid drivetrain, the hulking five-door, at least in concept form, should offer substantially better efficiency than anything else on the market. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a combined output of 305 horsepower and a ludicrous 516 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifting detail, while one electric motor spins the front wheels. The second motor spins the back axle independently, make the CrossBlue a through-the-road hybrid.
As a result, the crossover can pop to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Perhaps more impressively, the CrossBlue can whir around on all-electric propulsion for up to 14 miles at up to 75 mph. Once the diesel four kicks in, the drivetrain can yield up to 39 mpg, though Volkswagen says the hardware can hit 89 MPGe on a full charge thanks to a 9.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Check out the full press release below for more information.
Volkswagen breaks 40-year-old sales record in 2012
Sun, 13 Jan 2013The last time Volkswagen moved this many vehicles in America in one year, Richard Nixon was still a President in good standing, Let It Be was a radio hit and each car wearing the VW badge boasted an air-cooled engine. That's right, with a grand total of 580,286 vehicles sold in the US last year, the VW Group has broken its own four-decades-old sales record by 2,899 vehicles.
Of that 580k total sold, 438k were Volkswagens and 139k were Audi products - increases of 35.1 percent and 18.5 percent, respectively, in year-over-year sales. The ultra-premium members of the VW group also fared well; Bentley delivered 2,315 vehicles for a 23.3-precent increase, and Lamborghini delivered 520 units for a 52.9-percent jump. Bugatti, we're told is "right on track."
Jetta (pictured) sales paced the marque with 170k models sold, and Passat also finished very strong with sales of 117k total. Tiguan also racked up its best year on file, with 31,731 models shifted.
Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
