For your consideration an all original 1973 Super Beetle with 52,922 original miles. The car is a very dependable daily driver with no mechanical issues that would hinder it being driven cross-country. It is very solid at highway speeds, (0-80 mph) with no shaking or front-end shimmies experienced with older Supers with aging McPherson strut assemblies. Engine has never been rebuilt and is very reliable year round. The electrical system is fully operational, dome light, map light, seat belt light, headlights, turn signals, backup lights, wipers; heating/defrosting blower system is very, very good, tires are new with low miles. All original dash with no cracks, seats and headliner. The drivers seat can stand new covers, but I would replace both front seats at the time of replacement, the rear seat is in great shape. (At the buyers request I can replace both seat covers for an additional charge) All original window glass, window rubber and window scrapers. The exterior paint is in fair shape and there are signs of rust in the fender/body seams, (see the pics) These areas would need to be address at some point if one would choose to restore to pristine conditions. Overall the car is excellent for a not so in-depth restoration to original condition if one so chooses. The floor pans are still solid, the doors are still in alignment and close evenly with the body seams, steering is very tight and it tracks straight without the front-end wandering. Brakes, transmission, all still in very good low-mileage condition. Major tune-up, oil change, valve cover gaskets, valve adjustment, all complete! The car is advertised locally so we reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Feel free to email with your questions. No reserve, vehicle sold as is no warranties stated or implied .................... thanks for dropping by ............kj

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen 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.

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board
Wed, Apr 3 2019Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.
