I've decided to sell my beloved 1971 Volkswagen Beetle.  I just don't drive it enough to justify owning it.  I'd like to see it go to someone that would drive and enjoy it on a regular basis.  I purchased it 6 years ago in Oklahoma City for $3500.   I looked at many other Beetles before I bought this one.  I liked this one because it had no rust, it started and ran great, and it had low miles.  It now has only 95,000 original miles.  It has never failed to start, even on the coldest winter days.  It has definitely been one of the most reliable cars I've ever owned.  It has the original 1600 cc 4 cylinder engine.  The engine compartment is very clean and well kept.  Items I have replaced include all 4 shocks, front sway bar poly bushings, SCAT shifter, steering dampner, engine heater hoses, oil pressure switch, and shift rod bushing.  I also recently drained and replaced the transmission fluid with Mobil 1 75W90.  Recent oil change as well.  I put 4 new tires on it about 3 years ago.  I've only put a few thousand miles on them since then.  I also put 4 new EMPI 8 spoke wheels on the car.  This car has always been garage kept.  I have some brand new parts that have not been installed yet, including ball joints, muffler with exhaust tips, tie rod ends, horn ring, new black headliner, running boards, kick panels that will hold speakers, and door panels.  A year or so ago, I removed the seats and took out the old original carpet.  I also had the seats recovered but have not reinstalled them yet.  I was going to do that after I put in the carpet.  This Beetle came from the factory without a radio.  I have a nice JVC CD player that I was going to install in the glove box.  The body on this car is great to be over 40 years old.  Just a few minor dings and scuffs.  The original paint is a little faded and showing its age.  The floors, rockers, and fenders are nice and rust free.  I'm sure the winning bidder will be happy with the condition of this car.  It starts easily and shifts through all 4 gears fine.  The turn signal doesn't work, but a new one is included.  All the glass is good, and the windows roll up and down fine.  I do have the original cardboard piece that goes over the gas tank under the hood. Once you put new carpet in, you can reinstall the seats and have an awesome daily driver or first car for your kid.  The tag has expired, so you will have to update that.  Contact me with any questions.  I do not have PayPal, so payment must be made by cash or money order upon pickup.  GOOD LUCK!

Major automakers urge Trump not to freeze fuel economy targets

Mon, May 7 2018

WASHINGTON — Major automakers are telling the Trump administration they want to reach an agreement with California to avoid a legal battle over fuel efficiency standards, and they support continued increases in mileage standards through 2025. "We support standards that increase year over year that also are consistent with marketplace realities," Mitch Bainwol, chief executive of the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, a trade group representing major automakers, will tell a U.S. House of Representatives panel on Tuesday, according to written testimony released on Monday. The Trump administration is weighing how to revise fuel economy standards through at least the 2025 model year, and one option is to propose freezing the standards through 2026, effectively allowing automakers to delay investments in technology to cut greenhouse gas emissions from burning petroleum. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has not formally submitted its joint proposal with the Environmental Protection Agency to the White House Office of Management and Budget for review. Even so, last week, California and 16 other states sued to challenge the Trump administration's decision to revise U.S. vehicle rules. Auto industry executives have held meetings with the Trump administration for months and have urged the administration to try to reach a deal with California even as they support slowing the pace of reduction in carbon dioxide emissions that the Obama administration rules outlined. One automaker official said part of the message to President Donald Trump at a meeting on Friday will be to consider California like a foreign trade deal that needs to be renegotiated. Automakers want to urge him to get automakers a "better deal" — as opposed to potentially years of litigation between major states and federal regulators. On Friday, Trump is set to meet with the chief executives of General Motors, Ford, Fiat Chrysler and the top U.S. executives of at least five other major automakers, including Toyota, Volkswagen AG and Daimler AG, to talk about revisions to the vehicle rules. Senior EPA and Transportation Department officials will also attend. Environmental groups are eager to keep the rules in place, saying they will save consumers billions in fuel costs. A coalition of groups plans to stage a protest outside Ford's headquarters in Michigan.
