1973 Super Beetle Convertible Custom!

It's the nicest Super Beetle you'll see!

Always garage Kept.  My 2008 BMW X5 sits outside while she sits inside the 2 car garage.

This car has been completely redone inside and out!

This car is 99% Finished, there's a few little things here and there that needs to done, but nothing major.

Mechanics:

Rebuilt 1975CC (stock was 1600cc) with 2 Barrel Progressive Carbuerator (less than 500 miles on it since rebuild)

Euro Tune Exhaust System which provides a very nice tone.  (sounds more like a porsche than a beetle)

Complete Chrome Engine Dress Up Kit, Billet Oil Filler, & Chrome Valve Covers (one still drips alittle, but will have that fixed)

4 Speed with EMPI short throw shifter & chrome E Brake Handle (all new cables)

New Clutch,Flywheel, & trans axle

Flame Thrower Ignition & Coil

4 Wheel Disk Conversion with Topline Adjustable Lowering Strut set up.

New Tires & Aftermarket Wheels Tire size: 205 40 17 Kuhmo Escta Tires Front & Rear

Body:

Complete Media Blast of car with complete floor pan replacement on both sides.

All original sheet metal repaired by BMW Body Tech (simply beautiful)

Shaved: All Chrome trim, Front turn signals, rear license plate light & mounting area

New Billet Running Board, Euro Style Headlights with built in turn signal, Euro Style Flat rear tail lights

Chrome Push Bars for front & rear with Aluminum License Plate Holder

Interior & Top:

All Stock seats with Complete new Black Interior.  Custom door panels to fit better than the after market ones.

Top of the line Canvas Top (looks and feels very high quality)

There is no replacement Dash for the 73 so we covered it grey carpet like material.  Looks pretty good.

GT Grant Steering Wheel, new door pulls and window cranks.

I'm sure I've forgotten somethings, so any questions, please let me know.

I have over $20K invested in this car, but I've got a new Mustang Project started so it's time to let her go.

Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash

Thu, 11 Oct 2012

After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."

Porsche CEO Matthias Mueller throws hat back in ring for VW CEO job

Tue, Mar 24 2015

Toward the end of February it got leaked that Porsche CEO Matthias Muller was being promoted to Volkswagen's supervisory board. Muller's credentials and his success over 36 years at the VW Group have, for observers, put his name in the pool of potential candidates to succeed current group CEO Martin Winterkorn when Winterkorn retires in two years. But the 61-year-old Muller told German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung earlier in February, "It's no solution to put a 63-year-old at the head of Volkswagen," and the statement was taken to mean he wasn't considering the job. Muller now says the quote was misunderstood. In a report in Automotive News, the newly minted board member says he was commenting on what it would mean for the supervisory board and the Group if they nominated a 63-year-old to replace a 69-year-old - that it wouldn't result in a "generation change." However, if that's what they choose to do, Muller feels great: "I stand ready to take over any assignment," he said. Muller's name re-enters the candidacy pool, but we still have no idea who leads the running for the role and Winterkorn isn't saying a word. It could be three years before we know: Winterkorn's contract concludes at the end of next year but there is speculation he'll re-up for two years to see out the end of the Strategy 2018 initiative.

VW Group to split brands under four holding companies

Tue, Jun 16 2015

The Volkswagen Group is planning a tremendous shift in its internal structure that will decentralize operations by splitting its 12 brands into four different holding companies. Here's the breakdown. Things will be split logically, considering the inter-sharing of parts, platforms, and engines. The Volkswagen brand, Seat, and Skoda make up a passenger vehicle division led by former BMW man Herbert Diess. Audi, which is tightly intertwined with Lamborghini and motorcycle manufacturer Ducati, will be managed by current Audi exec Rupert Stadler. Porsche and Bentley, which are already quite close, will be joined by Bugatti and run by Matthias Mueller. Finally, a commercial vehicles division will include Volkswagen Commercial, Scania, and Man. Former Daimler exec Andreas Renschler will take care of the big vehicles. The massive move, according to Automotive News Europe, is part of an internal VAG effort to move away from the structure established by ousted Chairman Ferdinand Piech, who favored a compact, but highly centralized, management structure to oversee the independent actions of the company's brands. Criticism of Piech's arrangement stemmed from the company's slow responses to changes in the market, ANE reports. The new structure should make for a more efficient, streamlined company that's better able to make crucial decisions. What are your thoughts? Should VAG decentralize, or did Piech have the right idea? Have your say in Comments.
