1966 Vw Beetle Original California Black Plate Beauty-no Reserve on 2040-cars
Sacramento, California, United States
|
NO RESERVE AUCTION Finished in classic Red and Black with
White interior, this 1966 VW Beetle is among the most sought after of all
classic Beetles. A very nice original
survivor. The 1600 dual port engine was powerful, frugal on gas, and could sing
at high RPM all day long. Although i
don't have any history or paperwork on the engine, the car was purchased from
the family of the original owner. There
is no engine smoke, it pulls very strong, and is nice and quiet with stock
exhaust. The 4 speed transmission shifts quite and smooth. This is an excellent collectable that can
double as a daily driver, strong and well-constructed. This
car has been maintained beautifully and is ready for a new owner to enjoy
immediately.
Car is extremely solid, heater
channels, floor pan and body and no rust. Fenders were repainted in black and were done professionally. The rest of the red paint appears to be
original color to the car and is very presentable with some small scratches and chips over the years. Interior is original to the car -
it's worn but held up very nice with some small rips and tears. All original factory glass with correct markings. Car is currently registered, insured and road
worthy. Please call Mike at 916-764-9759 with any questions. E-mail me for link to my Photobucket pictures. I reserve the right to end the auction early if a reasonable offer is made and accepted. ****************UPDATE************************************************* A friend of mine who worked for VW and has over 40 years of VW mechanic's experience, looked over my car and gave me the following information: 1. Engine case is marked AE which means that the engine is a 1971 - 1973 1600CC 2. engine has a dual port intake with an adaptor for the Solex H30-3 3. Stock style distributor 4. German Blaupunkt radio that works 5. He believes that this car was made for the German market but sold to an American Serviceman 6. He located a small rust hole under the battery about 1" by 3" not uncommon for these cars. 7. He took it for a drive and found that it runs and drives very nice, engine pulls strong and the trans up-shifts and down-shifts very smoothly. He was very impressed. Thanks.

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

TRANSLOGIC 150: Volkswagen XL1
Mon, Feb 24 2014How do you build the world's most fuel-efficient production car? Start with the world's most aerodynamic design. The Volkswagen XL1 is capable of 261 miles per gallon thanks to its sleek shape and ultra efficient plug-in diesel hybrid powertrain. The downside is that only 250 will be made and none will be sold stateside. That didn't stop us from taking our turn behind the wheel of this truly revolutionary ride.
