Here we have a nice 1955 VW Beetle for your driving pleasure. This was purchased by me in July 2011 in order to bring back my youth. I recently purchased a 2013 VW convertible limited 50's special edition so I feel it is time to let someone else enjoy this 1955. I've had a great deal of fun driving the '55 and it has been reliable. Here are the particulars; It has the original interior (Red German Vinyl) which has NO rips or tears, just the normal wear for its age. The same goes for the carpet. The headliner is a nice replacement. Original instruments function properly. The original steering wheel shows the normal wear. The body had been repainted several years prior to my ownership. Little if any rust. The car spent many years in CA and AZ. The hood (as seen in the pictures) has a slight wrinkle on the drivers side when it was improperly closed without real easing the latch. It does close and latch properly. The semaphores had worked properly until recently when I decided to unplug them as they need some minor tweaking to release properly. The regular turn signals will work properly both front and rear if the semaphores are reconnected. The bumpers have decent chrome for their age. Prior to my ownership, a newer engine and correct transmission (with synchromesh) was installed. The engine # is H5775270. As stated it runs very well. It has a 12 volt electrical system and upgraded disc brakes in the front. When the engine was installed they did not set it up with a heater function as it was used in a warm climate. The tires have many miles remaining on the tread. The original owners manual will be included. It has a clean Nebraska title and I will supply a "Bill of Sale" as well. I will attempt to answer any questions you may have. I can be reached at 402- 488-8826. This car will make a vintage VW enthusiast happy with its drivability and historical attributes. The car is located in Lincoln NE and any shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I will assist in any way I can with the shipper. Your are welcome to inspect the car in person if you wish. I want to be as honest as possible in my description. This car is being sold without any warranty written or implied because of it vintage.

10 best new car deals in late September 2021

Wed, Sep 29 2021

New car sales were drastically affected in 2020 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but things started to show signs of recovery toward the end of the year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Now there's an ongoing shortage of microchips causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. That doesn't mean there aren't still great deals on new cars, though. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for September 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).

Weekly Recap: Mercedes, Volkswagen spend big as import automakers invest in North America

Sat, Mar 14 2015

Import automakers are on a building frenzy in North America as resurgent car sales have prompted companies to expand their manufacturing footprints to meet rising demand. That was evidenced this week when Mercedes-Benz announced plans to build a $500-million factory to produce the Sprinter commercial van, and Volkswagen confirmed a whopping $1-billion investment to expand its massive plant in Mexico. Meanwhile Jaguar Land Rover reportedly wants to build a factory in North America, but not for at least three years, and Hyundai is said to be expanding in the southern United States. The common thread in all of this expansion? Trucks, time and money. Mercedes wants to capitalize on the burgeoning work van segment in the United States and will break ground in 2016 on a 200-acre site in Charleston, SC, to build the next-generation Sprinter. The site will have a paint shop, body shop and an assembly line, and 1,300 people will be employed when production ramps up. Why do this, when Mercedes has immense van operations in Germany? It's cheaper to build in the US for the US market. Building locally allows Mercedes to avoid import taxes, forego a complex shipping process that involves partially disassembling German-built Sprinters and naturally, reduces the time it takes to deliver finished trucks to their buyers. "This plant is key to our future growth in the very dynamic North American van market," Volker Mornhinweg, head of Mercedes-Benz Vans, said in a statement. He was speaking about Mercedes and vans, but another German automotive giant, Volkswagen, had similar motives for its mammoth expansion plans in Puebla, Mexico. The added space and production capacity will allow VW to build a three-row version of the Tiguan, and provide another crossover for its US lineup that's light on SUVs. The current Tiguan has two rows. The factory will be able to churn out 500 units daily of the larger variant, and they will be sold in North and South America. It will arrive in the US in mid-2017, a spokesman told Autoblog. VW also plans to build another crossover, a midsize seven-passenger vehicle, at its growing Chattanooga, TN, site. "Localization has become key to safeguarding our competitive position on the global market, and manufacturing the Tiguan in Mexico will bring production closer to the US market," Michael Horn, CEO of Volkswagen Group of America, said in a statement.

VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad

Mon, 28 Jan 2013


Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.
