Up for sale is a restored '64 Beetle. This is a very solid car that has had a meticulous and correct restoration. Evertything on the body was removed, prepped and painted, then re-assembled so there are no masking tape lines anywhere, just like when it was new. The paint (Ruby Red) is base coat/clear coat and is as nice as you will find anywhere. The car still retains it's original German glass (except windshied) with all new rubbers, weather stripping, moldings, door handles, hubcaps, hood & trunk handles, clips, etc. Everything on the car both electrically and mechanically work fine. The door locks, windows (including vent) THE HEATER, e-brake, turn signal cancel, horn, high/low beam, ALL FUNCTION PROPERLY. All the fluids have been changed including the transaxle and brake system. Nice firm brake pedal with no pulling when applied. Brand new BFG radials with 100% tread remaining. There are no shakes in the steering wheel and runs straight when you let go of the wheel. The exhaust has been replaced along with heater boxes. Valves have been adjusted, new ignition parts, new carb and fuel pump, automatic choke operates as it should and the car starts up immediately. The car was converted to 12V especially for that reason. Please look carefully at the pictures and notice the floor boards. The normal battery piece was replaced but was done right so you can't even tell from underneath. The Saphire radio works including the pre-sets. I took a picture of the engine while the valve covers were off so you can see that it is immaculate inside. It does not smoke or make any unusual noises. It has that typical VW sound.
Very nice original VW that still requires rolling down a window to easily close the doors. The headliner, rugs, seat cover, everything, inside the car shows well. NO DISAPPOINTMENTS with this one. I encourage you to come see the car (if possible) or send some one. Ask questions if you are not sure. The only dumb question is the one not asked!
I respectfully ask only Continental US bidders to bid, if your feedback is low, you must contact me first. Please make sure your funds are in order. Your deposit is non-refundable and must be through Paypal. Thank you for looking and best of luck.

Volkswagen sketches Geneva-bound concept
Wed, Feb 25 2015Volkswagen has released a pair of sketches that give us our first official glimpse at the company's new concept car, set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week. Details are slim – the car doesn't even have a name yet – but we do have some facts about VW's swoopy new showcar. First off, it's a sedan – well, "four-door coupe" – but is said to have a hatchback configuration. Autoblog has also learned that the car will be powered by a hybrid powertrain, using a TSI gasoline engine paired with two electric motors, and uses an all-wheel-drive configuration that's likely similar to that in the recently unveiled Cross Coupe GTE concept. Volkswagen says this showcar uses a new, progressive design language for the brand. And while it sort of looks like a dead ringer for a new CC, we're told this concept is positioned above that model. For now, that's all we know, but we expect a host of other details to be released closer to the car's official debut in Geneva next week. Stay tuned.

France may still ban diesel vehicle sales
Sun, Nov 27 2016Legislators in France are not afraid to bring out the ban hammer when it comes to dirty vehicles. The city of Paris has implemented bans on old clunkers, and the French Prime Minister, Manuel Valls, said in 2014 that diesel cars were a "mistake" and that the government would "progressively undo" the error. Now the national government has said it will not rule out banning sales of new diesel vehicles by Renault and Volkswagen if those companies don't answer more questions about their vehicles' emissions. Environment Minister Segolene Royal said last week that France wants more information about the VW diesel defeat device and Renault's engine software. "We will be asking the consumer fraud investigators and prosecutors to communicate any findings that will enable us to establish whether it's necessary to withdraw sales authorizations," Royal said. Royal has been making waves recently at the COP22 meeting in Marrakesh, Morocco and said that Donald Trump's environmental policies will be " absolutely catastrophic" and weaken the US' standing in the world. If the US doesn't want to lead on climate change efforts, she said, "China can take the place of the United States." She has also been involved in a controversy at home over votes that her staff made to allow higher emissions level from vehicles.

BMW, VW partner with ChargePoint for high-speed charging network
Thu, Jan 22 2015To promote their plug-in electric vehicles, a number of electric vehicle makers are working overtime to get a charging infrastructure set up. Tesla is famously setting up a network of Superchargers around the world, and today BMW and VW have announced they are partnering with ChargePoint to install almost 100 DC Fast Chargers up and down the US coasts. Installing additional Level 2 chargers is also part of the plan. The new DC Fast Chargers will offer the SAE Combo connectors, which is available on both the e-Golf and the i3. The fast chargers will have "up to two 50 kW DC Fast chargers, or 24 kW DC Combo Fast chargers," BMW says. They will be installed roughly 50 miles apart between Boston and Washington, DC in the east as well as Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego in the west. The 24-kW DC Fast Chargers will fill up an empty i3 or e-Golf to 80 percent in a half-hour or 3.5-4 hours from the Level 2 cords. Speaking at an announcement ceremony at the Washington Auto Show today, ChargePoint CEO Pasquale Romano said that infrastructure investments like this will get more people to realize that they can use an electric vehicle as their only car, and Jorg Sommer, VP of product marketing and strategy for VW North America, said that it's clear that, "The EV is perfect for the daily driver." BMW, Volkswagen and ChargePoint Join Forces to Create Electric Vehicle Express Charging Corridors on the East and West Coasts. · A goal of nearly 100 DC Fast charging ports will be installed to support long distance and metropolitan electric vehicle travel with the BMW i3, Volkswagen e-Golf and other electric cars, along heavily trafficked corridors on both coasts, supported by Level 2 chargers. · These publicly available charging stations will be added to the existing ChargePoint network and can be easily accessed using a ChargePoint® or ChargeNow card. Washington, D.C., January 22, 2015 – At the 2015 Washington Auto Show, two of the top automakers, BMW of North America and Volkswagen of America, together with ChargePoint, the largest electric vehicle charging network, announced an initiative to create express charging corridors along heavily-traveled routes on the East and West Coasts.
