1965 vw bug driver... this is a good running bug that has been coverted to 12 volt that I used as a daily driver for a couple of summers...still a very original car with lots of patina from paint chips to blemishes and some peeling and dents....odometer is over the 100 ......I changed the shifter guide and put in storage last winter where it sat mostly to the end of summer into the fall.. I drove it home and drove 1/2 dozen times, shiter could still use adjusting...  one morning it would not start and that is wher we are at right now.. it does not make a click when you turn the key...I assume it is the battery or something with a wire connection, or worse case a starter....anyway, I have decided to list it for sale in as is condition....if it warms up I may try and put a charge on the battery....the pics make the car look nicer than it is...it is a survivor car that has not had any type of restoration.....it has an adjustable front beam, and the car has been lowered in the past...it has the push out rear windows, radio delete.....lots of flaws and chips in the paint that is very worn but still holds a shine......the window regulators are sticky and wore out as are the door hinges and strikers.... the running boards are rusty and need to be recovered... I thought of replacing them but am afraid the rockers would need to be replaced if i was to start taking bolts off...the heater channels are not funtional due to the fact they were full of holes..... the floor pans have been patched over the years and the passenger side floor is pretty bad... but the patches are water tight and I used the bug for a driver,..... so my only concerns were with keeping the interior water tight... It does have a new carpet installed a few years back.... the dash and the headliner are very original as are the door panels....thr front seats have some old vw covers on them and the rear seats have a fabric over them..the exhaust will need some work with a few of the pipes rusting.....see pics.......anyway, nice running car and is clean inside, what you see is what you get...good driver for someone wanting to get into a VW... but due to rust issues this may not be a canidate for a restoration but I guess that is my opinion ...just a good survivor car to drive and enjoy as it is.... I drove it often and used it to carry my bikes when I would go cycling as why you see the bike rack.....this is being sold as is no warranty...the value of this car is somewhere between $2000 to $3000...so please don't over bid expecting some great deal on a bug......I am willing to help with loading on a trailer... I would not recomend driving this car any great distance at all, nor driving until you work out any bugs it may have.... so plan on having it towed home..... payapl payment of $80 at close of auction....balance can be paid in person when picking up the car, or if buyer is out of state car will not ship until check clears bank...I reserve the right to end the auction at any time....

VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines

Sun, 16 Feb 2014

The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
