I am selling my 1962 VW Ragtop Sunroof bug. This car is my pride and joy, and has been garage kept since the day I bought her. She is an original black plate California car, that I had shipped to Florida. I had wanted to lower the car, but she is to pretty and original to mess with. I have had the car for two years, and have placed less than 900 miles on the car. 


About the Car (The Good):
----------------------------------------
Original, number matching, pan, body, and engine 1962 bug
Solid Original Floor Pans (Undercoated)
Solid Heater Channels
Door close tight, with no sag, or rotting of the driver or passenger A-Post.

Original, non grafted Rag Top, that opens and closes smoothly
New Rag on Ragtop
Original Color car, had one re spray years ago.

This car is a real Eye catcher, and head turner
Car runs solid

Car runs like a champ
Brakes work well, with no pulling upon stopping

The Minor Issues:
----------------------------
-Paint re sprayed years ago, it is all in original color. The paint has some dings in it from wear and tear over the years. I never painted the car, because I like the character of the wear on the original color paint. 
-Needs new Window and Door Molding. (Never replaced, as I don't drive the car in the rain)
-Door Dent in the back Left Fender
-Floor pans were undercoated. Some people like this, I do not. The pans are all original with no rust threw. 
-Seats could used to be redone (I liked the character of them as well)


In closing, this is an amazing bug, and is and was my dream bug. I bought this car with the intentions of lowering it, but she is to original, and truly is a well preserved specimen. I could not bring myself to even remotely do anything un-stock to this car. 

This car would make an insane vehicle for a full restoration, or would and does make a great vehicle to keep untouched and 100% Original. 
I am in no need of selling this car, I just feel bad that she sits in my garage 99% of the time. I would like to see someone who loves, and appreciates original old bugs, be able to really enjoy this car and treat her as she deserves and needs to be treated.

Any questions or comments, please let me know. I can send videos or phots of anything you would like to see about the car upon request.

Thanks!

Volkswagen could build plug-in hybrids in China

Sun, Apr 6 2014

When you're Europe's largest automaker and your largest global market happens to be the one most notorious for its pollution (China), some solutions just present themselves. Volkswagen may be heeding that call. During the upcoming Beijing Motor Show, the company is expected to announce plans to produce plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in China, Reuters says, citing sources within the company. Few details have emerged, though the plug-ins will likely be produced at VW's Foshan factory in South China, which currently makes the Golf and Audi A3 and has plans to eventually make 600,000 vehicles annually. News has been percolating for a while, as Oliver Schmidt, general manager engineering and environmental office for Volkswagen Group of America, said last March that the company was planning at least two plug-in hybrid lines under the VW badge (and another three with its Audi and Porsche affiliates), including possibly a Touareg and Jetta PHEV. VW said late last month that it was looking to speed up development of "particularly eco-friendly models" made by Shanghai Volkswagen as well as developing a "new, very eco-friendly vehicle" with First Automotive Works (FAW). Earlier this year, VW unveiled its Golf GTE plug-in hybrid at the Geneva Motor Show. That model has a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and an electric motor to provide 201 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The car can travel as many as 81 miles on electric power alone.

VW boss confirms Subaru-aping Golf Alltrack for US

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Subaru needs to watch out, because the Japanese brand with a utilitarian image has a big bull's eye on its back. Not only is Acura considering going 100-percent all-wheel drive in a bid to mimic the successful automaker, Volkswagen has just confirmed that the Golf Alltrack is coming to the US as another competitor for Subaru's popular Outback crossover. Volkswagen Group of America CEO Michael Horn has confirmed the addition of the higher-riding, all-wheel drive version of the Golf SportWagen to Automotive News, indicating that the model will arrive in the US in 2016. "That's what our dealers, our customers, are asking us for," he said to the industry publication. The Golf Alltrack, which debuted at the Paris Motor Show in early October, has an extra 0.75 inches of ride height and protective black cladding all the way around. Its biggest mechanical differentiator from other Golfs is its Haldex all-wheel drive system, a setup that can completely unhook from the rear axle when not needed to save fuel. In Europe, the Alltrack is available with a turbocharged 1.8-liter with 178 horsepower and two diesels offering between 109hp and 182 hp. However, Horn made no mention of likely powertrains for the US. Horn tells Automotive News that all-wheel drive tooling is currently being installed at the Puebla, Mexico, factory where the standard Golf Sportwagen is built. VW might have tipped its hand about this possibility several months ago when press shots of the wagon were released for the US with TDI and 4Motion badges. Horn says he expects even the front-wheel drive version to be a sales hit here, suggesting it may eventually account for 50 percent of the Golf range's volume.

VW clubs pay it forward to fix elderly woman's vandalized '69 Bus

Sun, Jan 11 2015

Not long after Thanksgiving, surveillance cameras caught four boys in Arizona throwing rocks through the windows of a 1969 Volkswagen bus belonging to an elderly woman called Ann. A few nights later they returned to the scene of the first crime and repeated it, smashing windows they missed before. Ann had no other car and no way to make a living, but when Jesus Aguilera – a member of the Arizona Bus Club – came across the incident on a Facebook page, he got to work. When he was finished, the AZ Bus Club and the Tucson Mob Squad had donated thousands of dollars to pay for new glass and get it installed, and now Ann has a magic bus she can drive again. Now, the vandals just need to be caught... Check out the video above for the story. News Source: AZ FamilyTip: Jav Volkswagen Minivan/Van Classics Videos crime vw bus
