1964 Volkswagen Beetle Bug, Sunroof, Matching Numbers! Perfect Christmas Gift on 2040-cars
Bellflower, California, United States
|
I would consider this bug a very nice weekend car. Not a daily driver nor a show car. Looks great, and turns heads all the time. Starts right up and very reliable. I've driven it in on several two hour stretches and cruised steady at 60mph with no problem. Turns heads!
Matching Numbers Vehicle! Checked the stampings on body, pan, engine, and title, all from September 1963. According to the title this vehicle was first sold in 1963. Samba.com designates all stampings from exact month and year. Chassis number: 5889351, Engine number: 8557720, Body number: 5889351, Title VIN: 5889351. Original Sunroof! Sunroof opens and closes with no problem New Interior! All seats and door panels are new and look great. All glass is in good condition. Windows work good. All weather seals are in good condition. Lights work good. Headlight bezels show signs of aging. I bought this car only a few months age with the intention of giving it to my son as a birthday gift, however after several conversations with him I realized that it was not something he desires. I have been driving it around town and have enjoyed it, but i have too many other cars, and need to sell this one. It would make the perfect christmas gift. I believe the original color of the vehicle was blue, I can tell in the sunroof frame that it was a different color. Paint looks good but it is not perfect, I have found a few imperfections here and there. However it looks good. The chrome on a couple of wheels has some chrome chipping. The front inner fenders show signs of prior accident. I have no knowledge of the accident but I can tell that it has been repaired. There is presently no stereo in it, but upon completion of this sell a stereo with a classic look will be installed. I have in my possession a clean California title. Sale of this vehicle is as is with no implied warranties. I've described this vehicle to the best of my abilities, I am no expert or a dealer. Personal inspections are advised and can be made via appointment. Buyer is responsible for a $500.00 deposit within 24 hours of sale completion. If you win this auction make sure you pay your deposit within 24 hours and full price within 72 hours. If you win and do not pay I will give you negative feedback. This is good looking car that you can cruise and enjoy without the price of a fully restored bug. Good Luck and Happy Bidding! |

Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy
Wed, 24 Jul 2013J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.
VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years
Sun, 26 May 2013It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.
Volkswagen unveils sportier Passat Performance Concept ahead of Detroit debut
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Ahead of its official unveiling at next week's Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen has released some preliminary details and images of its Passat Performance Concept - a car that, as its name suggests, adds a little more spice to the automaker's midsize sedan formula. VW makes no mention of any production intent for this road-ready-looking sedan, simply stating that the Performance Concept is a way to "explore this practical four-door's sportier side."
It certainly doesn't look too sporty, the only visual upgrades being larger 19-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bi-xenon headlamps with VW's Advanced Front Lighting system, LED taillmaps and carbon-look mirror caps. Inside, there are carbon interior accents and two-tone leather upholstery. But no matter, the real upgrades for this mightier Passat are found below the sheetmetal.
Powering the Performance Concept is a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, churning out 250 horsepower and sending its grunt to the ground via a six-speed automatic transmission. For reference, that's 80 more horsepower than the Passat's base 2.5-liter inline-five, but 20 horsepower less than the potent 3.6-liter VR6. As for other performance upgrades, Volkswagen has fitted the car with a lowered sport suspension and revamped electronic steering, which should indeed add a bit more dynamic feedback to the already nice-driving sedan.
