1967 VW Baja


Purchased last week to turn into my daily driver.

Landlord is unhappy with my collection of non-running vehicles.  As this is the one I've put the least amount of sweat and blood and time into, I'm willing to list it for sale.  The 78 Chevy pickup from New Mexico already has a lot of my sweat in it, so I'd prefer to keep it.

I literally only know what the previous owner told me, and what I've witnessed with my own eyes.  I work a lot so I don't have time to mess with this.  Previous owner added an auxillary fuel tank and powered it with a tiny 12v fuel pump.  He said the fuel tank lines were clogged, and it was easier for him to add the spare tank than to mess with removing the original and lines.  Since he only used it for fun, goofin' around on his land, a small tank on the back was all he ever needed.  Says the small tank on back would prolly run it for a coupla hours.  Brake pedal goes to the floor, so it'll need a master cylinder at least.

This is an older Baja creation, with older (worn out) interior, but the pans are solid (save for under the battery tray) and the body is solid.  There's some rust-through where the side step rails used to be, but not so bad that it's structurally worrying.  It can be covered up by new side rails and stay like that forever, unless you're gonna take it up north and run it in the salty winters up there.  Previous owner drove it around last month and didn't have any problems with it getting around on his property...said he was actually impressed with the ride.  When I towed it home, it tracked straight and true, without any bad bumping or wagging, so it looks to me like it's in overall good shape, just needs some cleaning up and it can be put back on the road as a street legal daily driver here in Texas. This was my original intention, but the landlord is unhappy.

This is a project....will need brakes, battery, tune up, oil looks good (isn't dirty, isn't gas fouled), will need little things like the rear brake lights affixed more securely, better wiper blades, the basic stuff like that.

This lil Bug has got a lotta things that other projects don't have.  The interior is in bad need up updating, but it's VERY solid...the dash is in one piece, nothing is TORN up to pieces, all the metal is still in great shape.  The glove box is even in GREAT shape...for old cardboard that's really impressive ;-)  There's no animal nests inside, there's no front end body damage (isn't that how most Baja's are created anyway?), no bondo anywhere that I can find.  This lil bug has heart...it just needs some lovin to get back on the road!

I did get a chance to throw some jumper cables directly to the battery cables off my truck and the lil engine will spin over easily...in fact it's one of the better sounding v-dubs I've owned, which makes me not really want to get rid of it.  This auction is a test to see if the general public thinks this car, as-is, is worth enough dough to talk me out of it.  If someone wants it bad enough, it'll save me from having to pay for storage while I finish my 78 pickup...any dough I spend on storage will only slow my progress with the old Chevy anyway.  So...best of luck with the auction, bid early and bid often. ;-)

PS - clear Texas title, and I can deliver for one dollar per loaded mile from Canton, TX to your location, paid in advance via Paypal only (NO EXCEPTIONS).  The tires hold air well enough to tow, but it looks like they go down after a week, I'll throw some fix-a-flat in em before I start towing to you, that way if that'll fix it, it'll be fixed by the time the Bug gets to you.

Any questions...DO NOT ASSUME...please come check out this bug in person!  I will *try* to answer questions...but do not give me a hard time if it takes me a day or two to respond.  THANKS for reading!! :-)

That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek. We also learned some interesting tidbits, such as the fact that VW is considering a pickup, and Jeep owners really are plugging in.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes gets F1 efficiency, EV charging in Vermont, VW e-Golf to use Bosch

Mon, Jul 14 2014

Efficiency equals performance, especially in the case of Formula 1 racing. The Mercedes AMC Petronas team points to several key efficiency technologies it uses to get the most out of its cars. And if their utter dominance so far this season is testament to this relationship, perhaps we should pay attention. Mercedes highlights hybrid tech, turbocharging, aerodynamics, lightweight construction, tribology (both in making internal components and lubricants more slippery) and simulation as crucial to getting around the track faster than anyone else. These just happen to be some of the same things that make the cars we drive on public roads more fuel-efficient. Learn more in the press release below. It's a good read. Brammo, maker of sweet electric motorcycles, is teaming up with TEAM Industries to make drivetrains for electric vehicles. TEAM, which specializes in drivetrain technology, will also become an investor in Brammo as part of the partnership. "The electric vehicle market is a growth market," says TEAM CEO and President David Ricke, "and TEAM and Brammo will be providing a wide range of solutions for OEM manufacturers." Read more over at EV World. Vermont celebrated the installation of a new EV charging station as part of a Green Energy Corridor between Boston and Montreal. When finished, drivers will be able to make the whole trip in an EV with access to charging along the way. For $5, customers can charge their vehicle in about 30 minutes at the Red Hen Baking Company in Middlesex. There are currently only about 700 EVs on the road in Vermont. The state has a goal to get 90 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2050, and getting more EVs on the road is crucial to that mission. Vermont hopes that expanding the charging infrastructure will convince more people to go electric. Read more at Vermont Public Radio's website. For it's new e-Golf, Volkswagen will use Bosch chargers for home installation and ChargePoint stations at its dealerships. Bosch will have various 240-volt options for the home, and will also provide installation. e-Golf customers will also get a free ChargePoint membership, and will have access to the company's network of charging stations worldwide. The 2015 e-Golf goes on sale in the US later this year. Read more in the press release below.

VW teases GTI Supersport Vision Gran Turismo concept

Sun, Apr 12 2015

Volkswagen was among the first to demonstrate its Vision for Gran Turismo with the GTI Roadster concept, last year. And now it's gearing up to release another one. Previewed in the video clip above and the images in the gallery below, the new GTI Supersport is once again conceptually based on the German automaker's iconic hot hatch. But instead of a roofless design rendered in red, this one has a fixed roof with pseudo NACA ducts and white bodywork, along with twin nostril air extractors in the hood, a giant carbon-fiber rear wing and diffuser, and large side vents. In short, it looks like it'll be awesome, and we'll likely see the full thing before too long – so watch this space.
