Up for auction is this 1967 California Black Plate Type III VW Fastback. I purchased the car from and older lady, and her daughter. I have never been much into VW’s but this one captured my attention. On tight windy roads this car actually handles better than my 67 GTO. These cars are not your average bug , as they are distinct. I have found that even in her current condition some who are not familiar with Type III’s become curious about them, as they are unique. Type III's utilize a pancake motor and thus have two trunks. One in the front and rear of the vehicle. They were available in three models. Squareback, Notchback and Fastback models. This car is a running drivable car. Her name is Heildigard (Hilldi for short). She has some rust although is an overall solid car. Floor pan patches are needed at drivers area near pedals and under battery as far as I can tell, also in areas shown in photos. This is not the car to buy for your son or daughter to be driven as is. She does need work. It is a good project for the person with mechanical skills, or to be handed over to a repair specialist. Hagertry Classic Car Insurance stated the value of this particular model restored was $17,000. The brakes need attention to drive Hilldi as she is. The car does run and drive as stated in the auction listing and comes with a carpet kit. We are not sure if the mileage is actual or exceeds the limits of the odometer, No mileage noted on title (pink slip). Please see odometer photo. The car should be trailored, or trucked to her new home if your are the winning bidder. The car is for sale with no warranty , where is. Buyer has the sole responsibility for cost of transportation of the vehicle to her new home. I will make myself available to coordinate with your shipper for pick up from its current location. I have described the vehicles condition to the best of my ability. Please order your own inspection prior to bidding with ample time for review prior to auctions end. This is your chance to a special piece of automotive history. Type III VW’s are fuel efficient becoming less and less common. Title in hand ready to singed over to the winning bidder. If car is sold, and or shipped outside of the state of California license plates are not included as part of vehicle sale. We reserve the right to end the auction at any time, as the car is for sale locally. Bidding on Ebay is a legal agreement. Non paying winning bidder(s) will be reported to Ebay.

Icon goes Derelict on a 1967 VW Bus

Fri, Sep 11 2015

Jonathan Ward and Icon have an eye for the little details in everything they make, and that's especially true of the company's Derelict projects. This time they are turning their attention to the '67 Volkswagen Bus. The van might look a little tired at first, but Icon gives the VW a complete makeover to keep it on the road for decades to come. Ward's client for this build had owned VW Buses before but wanted to have a truly usable one. Making that harder, she requested that the final result remain true to the essence of these classic vans. To do that, Icon let the exterior remain almost entirely stock, except for a few minor additions like the roof rack, tent, and a 110-volt outlet hidden at the back. The interior was kept looking original too, but the builders installed custom walnut cabinets and a load of modern upgrades, including air conditioning. The air-cooled boxer engine was also dumped in favor of a 2.0-liter four-cylinder sourced from a Jetta. To really understand just how much is changed, let Ward take you on a complete tour of the overhauled, vintage VW in this clip to show off all of his team's impressive work. Related Video:

Suzuki and VW finalize their divorce

Thu, Feb 11 2016

The rocky divorce between Suzuki and Volkswagen is finally over after working its way through the International Court of Arbitration since 2011, according to the Japan Times. In the final settlement to end the companies' disputes, Suzuki agreed to pay VW an undisclosed amount for not living up to the agreement to use the German automaker's diesel engines. While they won't disclose the exact sum, Suzuki said in a statement that the money "will not have any significant impact" on its 2015 fiscal year results, which will end in March. The arbitration court took the biggest step to end this transcontinental partnership in August 2015 when the body ruled VW needed sell its 19.9-percent stake in Suzuki. However, the Japanese company wasn't entirely off the hook because VW was still allowed to sue for damages over the diesel engine issue. This latest decision finally clears up that dispute. Like most marriages, the union between VW and Suzuki began with stars in both parties' eyes. The Germans paid $2.8 billion to buy 19.9 percent of the Japanese company in December 2009. VW was supposed to get greater access to the auto market in India, and Suzuki hoped to capitalize on access to its partner's advanced technology. By 2011, rumors started percolating that things were contentious behind closed doors. VW allegedly tried to assert control over Suzuki's operations, and the Japanese company reportedly wasn't happy with its access to the German tech. Suzuki even bought diesel engines from Fiat, rather than VW. Later that year, company CEO Osamu Suzuki announced he would end the alliance, and they started working through arbitration. Notification Concerning Resolution of Arbitration by Settlement As Suzuki has reached a settlement regarding the arbitration that Suzuki filed with the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce on 24 November 2011, Suzuki informs you of the following: 1. History from the Request for Arbitration to the Settlement As announced in the "Notification Concerning Arbitration Award" dated 30 August 2015, the Tribunal indicated that it would address the issue of alleged damages arising from Suzuki's breach of the agreement claimed by Volkswagen AG ("VW") in a further stage of the arbitration proceedings. Suzuki reached a settlement with VW in regard to such arbitration proceedings on 10 February 2016. Accordingly, the arbitration proceedings have been concluded. 2.
