Alabama does not title vehicles more than 35 years old so I have NO TITLE. I can't even get one in the state of AL.

This auction is for my '58 VW Bus.  It's rusty, but it's a lot of upper rust, the frame & cargo floor are pretty solid.  I had a 1/8" sheet metal floor put in the front, but it's over what was there.  I just wanted a driver, not a show piece.  It's had a lot of areas tacked to make it stiffer but none of the rust has been fixed, just improved.  It's a walk thru, it has the seats, it's got the original '58 36 horse motor that runs like a top, it's got the '58 only engine lid & hand crank apron.  Previous owner said the motor was rebuilt in '74 & then parked. It's been lowered the cheap way, still has all the stock parts & reduction boxes.  Passenger outer door handle does not work but the inner does.  All electrical works, but it is still 6 volt.  New battery, clutch, & brakes.  Still has 3 of the original date crows foot wheels, the other is a '56.  The trans is a big nut unit out of a '65.  My goal is to get into a driving window bus for the fam, so if you've got one hit me up, this one isn't much good for 4 people but you'll be the coolest kid on the block for sure.  It's a '58, so it's got quirks, but I think it's pretty nice for what it is.  Sold as is of course.  It's listed local also so if it sells I'll cancel the auction.  Cash in person only, NO PAYPAL.  Please don't hit the buy it now until you've talked to me & we've got a deal lined up, otherwise I just gotta relist & it costs me $.  I can be reached by email or I can get texts at 256-281-1956.  I'll be glad to take any more pics or post any more info needed.  Thanks!

VW recalls 1.1M Jetta, Beetle models in US, China over suspension fears

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Volkswagen is recalling about 1.1 million vehicles in China and North America in a newly announced campaign affecting the rear suspensions on some models. For the US, the action covers about 442,265 vehicles, including 400,602 examples of its 2011-2013 Jetta and 41,663 units of the 2012-2013 Beetle and Beetle Convertible. According to Reuters, the recall affects a further 126,000 vehicles in Canada and about 581,090 in China, including related market-specific models like the Sagitar.
The problem can occur if the affected models have a collision to the rear or the side-rear of the vehicle. It's then possible for the trailing arms on the torsion-beam rear suspension to be damaged. If the harm isn't noticed, then the part could fracture while driving. Obviously, a broken rear suspension is going to have an adverse effect on handling.
To fix things, VW dealers will inspect the trailing arms on the models, and they will all receive a sheetmetal part that will make a distinctive sound if broken in the future. If already damaged, the entire torsion beam will be replaced. Obviously, this work will be done at no charge to owners.

US-spec 2015 Volkswagen Golf and GTI to finally debut in New York

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf is hardly new to us. In fact, we've already driven it. And elsewhere in the world, the new Golf is already winning awards. Even so, we still have yet to see the US-spec version of the car, though that won't be the case much longer. As part of the New York Auto Show festivities later this month, Volkswagen will finally show off the 2015 Golf models destined for our shores.
Three different versions of the Golf will debut under the lights of New York City's Javits Center: the turbocharged TSI, oil-sipping TDI and hotter GTI. The first model in that list uses Volkswagen's new 1.8-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, replacing the outgoing 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline five-cylinder. The latter two models use familiar engines: the 2.0-liter TDI diesel and 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, respectively.
Even though the new Golf officially debuts later this month, it won't go on sale in the US until the first quarter of 2014. We'll be waiting patiently.

Andretti Autosport partners with Volkswagen for Global Rallycross season

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Michael Andretti and Volkswagen have both been involved in Global Rallycross for a couple of years, but not together. Andretti Motorsports Marketing organized the final round of the 2012 GRC series in Las Vegas, and there were rumors then that Andretti was going to get in. Around the same time there were news reports that Volkswagen was preparing a 600-hp Polo Mk5 to race in the SuperCar class; the photo above is racer Anton Marklund in his privateer Marklund Motorsports Polo at the 2013 X-Games round in Los Angeles.
Now it's official: Andretti Autosport will campaign the 2014 GRC season with VWs. That's all that's been said for now, Andretti being busy at the moment launching four entries for IndyCar, two for Indy Lights and two for Pro Mazda. We have a feeling we'll be seeing the MkVII Golf involved, but the cars and the driver lineup will be presented at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6.
