You will get the car but not the contents, except that you will get door cards and back seat/storage cover, fragments of driver's window, six quarts of synthetic blend diesel engine oil and a new oil filter in the box. If you wish, you will get a few kind words. Transporting this car from where it is to where you want it to be will be your responsibility. I will help a little with phone calls and things like that. Whomever you are, you will get $150 USD, CASH BACK. Deals like these are hard to equal and impossible to beat. This opportunity is remarkable. On top of that, I will entertain, but not necessarily accept, your best offer. Tell your friends. T-boned in driver's door and back quarter; left rear wheel disabled. Around 12,000 miles on first-class engine rebuild that cost over $3M; has attained 48 mpg on road. Would cruise easily at 75-80 mph, but it wouldn't get 48 mpg doing that. Low to middle 40's in mixed driving. Does not mark its territory with oil drops. Has block heater, which I did not use this winter. Starts easily in 20 degree weather on glow plugs. Parts Place in Michigan will sell you a long block without accessories for a bundle, they also sell heads. This engine has one of their heads, and I can tell you they are good. Majorly good. Parts Place says most shops screw up VW heads, and I have to agree. The first shop (a productions head rebuilder) screwed up my head; it blew a gasket. VW Diesel head gaskets are not cheap. Heads either. I have had this car for about ten years. Spent a ton of money repairing/replacing loads of parts in last three yr. Details on request. Spent a young fortune making it shift right and always find the right gear. Replaced main shift rod, and those are not easy to get (NLA from Volkswagen), but it makes the car go into reverse when you want it to. Windshield wiper motor stripped out drive gear; it turns but it doesn't wipe. Junk radio. Heater seems weak, but it does work at least some. Nearly new tires; tire on disabled wheel is holding air. All glass good except driver's window, which is in one million pieces. You get the pieces. No important rust damage. I even replaced the battery tray $$$. Car is nearly perfect mechanical donor. Has Optima battery. New radiator with the overhaul. Old one started leaking when rebuilt engine fired first time. Curses. I hate to see it just go to crusher with no parts, particularly the engine, saved. I have tried to find a sound derelict unibody with no luck. Ask any question you wish. You may inspect all you desire and see/hear it start/run before closing. If you have been around these cars, you know that odometers fail. Actual mileage believed to be astronomic; I have replaced odometer three times. May have Texas Salvage Title by time sold. I will refund you $150 against your shipping cost, if it is large, small, or essentially zero. What a deal. If you arrive with a trailer, I'll give you $150 back out of what you paid. If you arrive with a dolly or a flatbed, I will give you $150 back out of what you paid. If your transport company arrives, I will refund $150 to you out of what you paid. If you live down the street from me and I just don't know it, I will give you $150 back out of what you paid. I did the best I could with the pictures. I promise you the car is not sideways. What else is there to say, except this is a hell of a good deal for the right person? One more thing: It's also for sale in other venues, and I reserve the right to end this listing at any time. So get in here and bid !! |

Russian auto boomtown grinds to halt over Ukraine sanctions
Tue, Apr 5 2022Thousands of auto workers have been furloughed and food prices are soaring as Western sanctions pummel the small Russian city of Kaluga and its flagship foreign carmakers, with more sanctions likely to come. The Kaluga region, 190 kilometers (120 miles) southwest of Moscow, says it has attracted more than 1.3 trillion roubles ($15 billion) in investment, mostly foreign, since 2006. But Western sanctions imposed in recent weeks after Russia sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine have exacerbated lingering component shortages and halted production at two flagship car plants, Germany's Volkswagen and Sweden's Volvo. A third, the PSMA Rus plant that is a joint venture between Stellantis and Mitsubishi and employs 2,000, may halt production soon due to a lack of parts, Stellantis' chief executive said last Thursday. "It is not clear what will happen. They don't give us any concrete information," said Pavel Terpugov, a welder at the PSMA Rus plant. Terpugov said he needs twice as much money to buy groceries than before the sanctions. Analysts have forecast Russian inflation could soar to 24% this year, while the economy may shrink to 2009 levels. The United States and Europe are weighing more sanctions against Russia after Ukraine accused Russian forces of civilian killings in northern Ukraine, where a mass grave was found in Bucha, outside Kyiv. Russia calls its actions in Ukraine a "special operation" and the Kremlin categorically denied any accusations related to the murder of civilians, including in Bucha. One source of hope for some in Kaluga, with its 325,000 residents, is the West may be reluctant to hurt its own companies. "Does it make sense to impose sanctions on its own plant and lose money?" said Valery Uglov, an auto mechanic at the Volkswagen plant. "Does it make sense to lose the Russian market?" "We hope to return to work as soon as possible and everyone will have confidence in the future again," Uglov said. Volkswagen, whose factory employs 4,200 people, in early March suspended operations. A spokeswoman said production remained frozen. Volvo Group, which employs over 600 people to build trucks, also suspended production. Even before the sanctions, Russian car sales had contracted from 2.8 million units from when the Volkswagen factory opened in 2007 to 1.67 million units last year, damaged by both sanctions after the 2014 annexation of Crimea and the COVID-19 pandemic.
