A Very Special 1974 “Survivor Thing” is being offered

for sale.

This is a original California Car, Purchased in Palm Springs

CA at Desert Volkswagen, August 10th, 1974 and has been

owned by my father since the early 1980’s. Regular

maintenance or repairs have been completed by the likes of

Frank & Kit’s and Blodgett's Bug Barn both located in

San Bernardino, CA. & most recent Competition

Engineering in Phoenix, AZ. The car has never been

re-painted and no major modifications have been done. The

car’s pan was treated with POR-15 in the 80's for

preventative purposes and has still held up.

The car dose not have the original wheels, however the

original spare with the Continental TT-726 is in tack and

looks new. The convertible top frame was purchased from "The

Trim Shop" known today as “Thing Shop” located in

Chandler, AZ back in the early 80’s. The Convertible top

itself my Dad and I bought from a Volkswagen Dealer in Baja

Mexico in the 80’s. The top is an Original German Top that

is very rare. Both the frame and top where covered and

stored in-doors since the 80's. I have recently installed

the top on the car and has always been stored in an enclosed

garage. The hard top is available, but is located in CA.

If you are interested in a non-molested “Survivor” Type

181 “THING” from a family with a passion and long

history of air-cooled Volkswagen’s & Porsche’s

please feel free to contact me via, e-mail, text or call. I

can also send additional pictures upon request. Please

serious inquiries only.

Thank You for viewing my ad.

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.

Even 'basic' girls are tired of their cheating VW Jettas

Sat, Sep 26 2015

Well, this didn't take long. Former Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn's office probably hasn't even been packed yet, and the jokes about his scandal-ridden former employer have already begun to fly. Today, we'll be featuring the team from Funny Or Die, which has opted to not only skewer Volkswagen for its TDIsaster, but one of the victims of the company's catastrophe – the 'basic' girl. For those not in the know, "basic," according to Urban Dictionary is an adjective reserved for someone "devoid of defining characteristics that might make a person interesting, extraordinary, or just simply worth devoting time or attention to," and that they are "lacking intelligence and unable to socialize on even an elementary level." And when it comes to basic girls, the Volkswagen Jetta is as ubiquitous as a Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte. But with the VW controversy, basic girls are finding their Jettas aren't so good for their green credentials. So check out Funny Or Die's take on these scorned drivers, in the video above. And fair warning, there's a bit of foul language.
