1971 RAG TOP FULLY ELECTRIC CONVERSION BEETLE

WITH AN ON BOARD GENERATOR AND A CHARGER.

There are a total of 10 batteries in the rear of the car that power a 120v electric motor that is installed where the factory engine once was.

The conversion alone for this was over $4600 new.

The previous owner that built the conversion installed an electric start generator in the trunk area that can power the battery charger as the car is being driven.

This is a very solid car with nice floors!

It is not your typical rust bucket!

Some of the batteries will need replaced due to a few dead cells which drains the system more than usual.

These should be replaced to achieve the desired charge and range it was built for!

The previous owner said that right now it will only do 10 miles before a charge is needed do to the batteries needing replaced.

You will have to test each one to see which ones need replaced.

There is no clutch to worry with but it has a 4 speed transmission and shifts great!

Just hit the pedal and your off!

On a full charge with new battery's it should travel up to 30 miles!

All and all its a great electric conversion vehicle that only need a few new batteries and minor TLC.

the possibilities are endless!

Put a solar panel on the roof and give it even more charge!


The previous owner pulled it behind his RV so it also comes with a tow bar to do so.

If you need to travel a few miles to work each day it would really pay off knowing that you wont be wasting money on fuel!

The roof rack is not for sale with the vehicle and will be removed before the sale ends.

we are selling this as a running and driving light project vehicle.

Please do your research on electric conversion before you buy!

This will make someone very happy!

VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt

Sun, 08 Sep 2013


Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.

Volkswagen iBeetle gets integrated iPhone dock, little else

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Apple fans have been itching to see the tech giant flex the full muscle of its iOS operating system in an automotive infotainment system for years, which is why we turned all sorts of excited when we caught wind of the Volkswagen iBeetle. The machine is headed to the Shanghai Motor Show for a debut, and VW promised it would be one of the "first cars in the world to have a genuine integrative interface for the iPhone that was coordinated with Apple." Listen closely, and you can hear the contented sigh of a million wallets opening.
Go ahead and close those up, kids.
In reality, the iBeetle offers little more than a dash-mounted dock and a special app that shows a few vehicle functions, which is about as far from an infotainment revolution as you're likely to find. In fact, the setup is little more than a factory rehash of aftermarket items, and hardly worth a whole model debut at an international motor show. And that's to say nothing of the fact that Apple relishes in changing the shape and form of its darling handheld at every generation. Volkswagen better be prepared to keep pace with appropriate docking mechanisms for the upcoming iPhone 5S, 6, 6S, et al.

2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

The Golf VI's Last Hurrah Is Pure Niche
This was in the heart of the ultra-chic Côte d'Azur during winter. The car to be tested was the not-for-North America 2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet. Prevailing weather conditions here this time of year are bizarrely pleasant, as though a dome of Swarovski crystal has been placed over the entire region to protect it from any real winter spoiling things. And the zippy Golf R Cabriolet is a sports car designed precisely for this area's preciously narrow winding streets, as well as for the lofty budgets of its property owners.
So then why was it snowing like we were in northern Michigan? The weather front hit from the north like a swift kick to the Jordaches. The roof was open on this Candy White Golf R Cabrio and I, as is my wont, was determined through thick or thin to keep it retracted. It had been raining and sometimes sleeting like the End of Days, but I kept the lid cracked because the 261-horsepower cabrio - the most powerful convertible ever built by Volkswagen - was snipping along nicely as the bad weather blew over my head and wetted only the rear headrests.
