1957 Vw Oval ( 37200 ) Actual Miles From New on 2040-cars
Waverly, Nebraska, United States
Offered for sale, again, is my low mile 37,200 1957 Oval beetle. I've added a completely rebuilt Judson supercharger giving this car much better road speed and 20 extra HP. If the car meets the reserve and the buyer wishes to have the engine put back to stock 36hp, I'll refund back $2000.00 from the purchase price and return the original parts to the engine. My car has been driven and has several small scratches and chips to the pain, nothing serious enough to stop it from winning best in class at numerous car events. The car has never had pans or channels replaced and as you can see from the pictures they are as good as it gets. Sits on new rubber with completely new German brakes. There's just to much to list regarding the car, so please ask questions and I'll return answers ASAP! The car was listed last week with it's one wheel trailer and that's been sold. The period luggage goes with the car, however the grille badges are not included in the sale. European buyers are responsible for making all shipping arrangements. I encourage an on sight inspection by a qualified 3rd party. I can be reached for appointment at 402-890-1747 . Thanks for taking a look. Thanks for looking On Jul-20-14 at 12:23:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Due to questions regarding the none clear pointer on the speedometer, I took a closer look and see it was replaced with a dated unit of 2-62 . I don't know the circumstances behind the change and can only assume the original became faulty at some point. I don't have service records showing a replacement. I therefore can only state the mileage to be correct from time of replacement. The cars overall condition reflects the mileage to be close to correct. If anyone doubts my integrity regarding this issue, please don't bid! On Jul-24-14 at 10:00:52 PDT, seller added the following information: Due to interest in purchasing the Supercharger and related parts, I've decided to remove the supercharger if the car doesn't meet the reserve. I will relist the car in pure stock form at a later date. Thanks to all for your interest. |

Volkswagen e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva
Sat, 02 Mar 2013With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.
Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union
Sat, 30 Aug 2014The struggle over unionization at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. There's now a second union fighting to organize at the plant; although this one is staunchly against the actions of the United Auto Workers. At the same time, the UAW is still signing up voluntary members to its recently created Local 42 at the facility and is reportedly near having a majority of the hourly employees on its side.
The new, anti-UAW union campaign is being spearheaded by employee Mike Burton, according to Reuters, and he calls his group the American Council of Employees. He claims to already have 108 signatures in support of his organization. Burton believes that the UAW is harmful to businesses, and his goal is to force another vote to determine a preferred union among workers.
The UAW was initially defeated (712 to 626) when it attempted a union vote at the Tennessee plant in February. However, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel told Reuters that Local 42 has already signed up over 700 members. If it can reach a majority of the roughly 1,500 employees, the group hopes VW might consider recognizing it as the factory's union.
VW XL1 priced at $169,000 in UK, only 30 will be sold there
Wed, Jul 2 2014Volkswagen has announced the pricing of its XL1 diesel plug-in hybrid for the UK, according to Car magazine. The small, uber-efficient two-seater will start at GBP98,515, or roughly $168,930 at current exchange rates. Additionally, only 30 units of the XL1 will be sold throughout the UK, giving it a rareness appropriate for its lofty price. It's nice to finally be able to stop speculating about the XL1's price. Even as recently as the first XL1 delivery in Germany, we were still mostly in the dark concerning the cost of the slippery VW. But is the price worth it, especially considering that the much sportier BMW i8 can be had for just a bit more (GBP99,895, or $171,460, in the UK)? Car seems to think so, noting that the XL1 is an eco and technology pioneer, and saying that its cost of ownership is "merely the price of progress." Plus, that includes the bragging rights of owning the world's most fuel-efficient car. The XL1's two-cylinder turbo-diesel engine displaces just eight-tenths of a liter and produces 47 horsepower. The internal combustion engine operates alongside a 26-horsepower electric motor powered by a 5.5-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Despite its 2.64-gallon fuel tank, the XL1 has a maximum driving range of over 700 miles thanks to a 261-mpg rating (based on the European cycle). Unfortunately, we won't be able to do any bladder-busting, nonstop Chicago to DC road trips any time soon, as VW has no plans to bring the XL1 to North America - not that one would relish the experience of dicing it up with America's massive trucks and SUVs. If you want to drive one, you'll have to go to Europe, and you'd better have a very large piggy bank you're prepared to break open.
