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

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.

VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.

VW planning 20 new plug-in models for China

Thu, Oct 30 2014

With just about everything getting super-sized for China, Volkswagen is following suit with its plug-in vehicle plans for the world's most populous country. VW, Europe's largest carmaker, is looking to sell more than 20 different plug-in models in China within the next four years, Reuters says, citing comments Volkswagen Group China head Jochem Heizmann made in Shanghai. The company is hoping that translates to sales of more than 100,000 plug-ins in China by the end of the decade. Go big or go home, right? There's a huge plug-in vehicle opportunity in China, especially given the bad pollution situation in cities like Beijing and Shanghai and the Chinese government's incentives for plug-in vehicle buyers. Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn said at the Beijing Motor Show this spring that the company would spend $25 billion on at least a half-dozen plug-in models for China by 2018. VW will start selling the e-Golf in China this year and the Golf GTE plug-in hybrid in 2015. VW said in August that it would start selling the e-Golf in the US for about $35,500 in November. That's a $6,500 price hike from the base Nissan Leaf.

Dyno run hints VW GTI power might be significantly underrated

Wed, Feb 4 2015

Are you one of the lucky owners of the 2015 Volkswagen GTI? If yes, you should be happy, because your 210- or 220-horsepower hot hatchback might actually have more like 260 ponies under its hood. That's according to a dyno test from a vendor on, of all places, a Ford Focus ST enthusiast forum. The company is estimating a 15-percent drivetrain loss with the GTI's best result a whopping 263 horsepower and 314 pound-feet of torque at the crank. That's a tremendous difference from the 210 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque that Volkswagen claims. Of course, this is merely one dyno session on one car. We'll have to wait until more 2015 GTI owners get on the rolling road to see if Volkswagen really was as conservative about its hot hatch's output as FocusST.org claims.
