When I bought it I didn't know what to look for so be careful when buying a old bug.Had to rebuild the front end. New Swing arms and Bushing, all new tie rods complete linkage. Had it professionally aligned at a German car repair outfit. She goes straight all the time, especially when stopping. This is a long list. New shocks, front bearings, rear suspension rubber stops. Has the original smog system on it,I went to great lenghts to get it right- all the correct hoses from the gas tank to the charcoal filter to the original air box.Rebuilt motor, with next size up cylinder she runs strong. New Crossover tube for carburetor, new carburetor, new german distributor NOS (new old stock), new alternator , original air box, new muffler,I added the aftermarket oil filter system when the motor was rebuilt so it sports a real oil filter..Good spare in front with new cardboard trunk covers. Has the original jack and hub cap remover. All new windshield whipper hardware, original stuff. New rubber around the motor area.

Upholstery and Paint are nice and were done by previous owner, he was into cosmetics and nothing else. The Headliner has been redone with the sun visors, they are not original but look very factory and new. And the heater works, new cables and original German Hoses that actually transfer lots of heat.

I sandblasted the rims and had the paint heat baked on, 4 new tires. The rims are original and look great, slapped new hub caps on as well, there good quality not chinese but not German.

Parts that I have that I have not installed. New window hardware$200, New rubber kit for windows includes all door and window rubber and felts $300, A original steering wheel with no cracks $350, new turn signal unit $150, new windshield washer switch and all hardware to make it work with the air in front tire$200. I also have brand new rubber and end caps for the front and rear bumpers, Note the bumpers are original, Bug City says they are hard to find with the originals.

I would say its a daily driver, and one of the best looking Beetles rolling around my neck of the woods. You can just jump in and go. Of all the cars that I own this is the one you can count on to take you somewhere. Starts every time, runs strong very dependable.

Like with all 40 year old vehicles there is a couple things that need to be fixed up, but its ready to drive. Anyone who has driven it always comments on how nice it drives and looks. Some of my friends have begged me to drive it they love it.

I get more compliments on it than any car I have ever owned. It's real COOL..

Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

Meet Brad, Sheena and Nacho
Driving through China is a pricey proposition. The couple will need to pony up a staggering $19,514 just to cover the fees.
Brad and Sheena Van Orden are in the midst of a life-defining campaign to travel around the world, and they're doing it in a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon custom built for the occasion. The past 15 months have seen the couple quit their jobs with Gore-Tex and drive from Arizona to the very southern tip of Argentina after spending a full two years saving and preparing for the trek. Now they're in southern Asia gearing up for the next leg of their journey.

Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.

From there, they get into Greg's time with VW's game-changing new ID.4 electric crossover. Byron then talks about his time with two very different new vehicles: the 2021 Buick Envision luxury crossover and the 2021 Hyundai Sonata N Line, which may or may not be a sport sedan.
