Beetle Convertible 1962 Dressed As A 1958 on 2040-cars
Apple Valley, California, United States
Hiya Volks Folks. - Front disks ( your standard Ghia swap ) ** The car is pretty solid, but does have small holes in the passenger side pan. I picked this up for a summer driver & thought about selling it in the fall. On May-05-14 at 19:40:46 PDT, seller added the following information: I understand.....everyone wants to know what kind of value I put on the car. Since you're looking at the listing, you already know what it's worth. Good luck to all bidders & thanks for looking. On May-07-14 at 04:30:04 PDT, seller added the following information: Added a few more pictures, thus maxing out what eBay will allow. I think I can attach more pictures to question replies, so if you request pictures & also want to send a phone number, use separate messages ( so I'm not posting your phone number to the public ) *** as you can see, the lower rails are pretty solid, I just planned on replacing them next winter so people aren't worried about a couple tiny holes. From the way things look today, I should be able to get a full speed road test in this week, I'm just waiting on a couple parts. On May-09-14 at 04:07:27 PDT, seller added the following information: Ok, so I guess I CAN'T post public replies with pictures....the "post as public" check box gets blocked out when I add pictures. eBay should fix that Anyway, I'm throwing time & money at this car as as if I were going to keep it. I'm still waiting on an beam seal from AppleTree so I can do an alignment, it should be here today. The wiring is coming along very well, professionally done of course. ( soldered & shrink wrapped where needed....also picked up a later model front harness ) I'm looking to give her a good shakedown tomorrow night. Bidding is ... well, not exactly where I feel comfortable just yet. ( pretty close though ) I'm a betting man, so if we get a little closer, I'll let it run. I'm working on a lot of stuff you wont notice, unless I didn't do it. I'll continue building it as if it'll be my driver & still haven't decided if I'll relist this year. I'll probably be having too much fun with it to do so. |

Translogic 171: EV West Karmann Ghia Electric Conversion
Wed, Feb 25 2015Translogic checks out EV West, one of the world leaders in electric vehicle conversions. Host Jonathon Buckley interviews EV West owner Michael Bream and test drives a converted 1969 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. What drives EV West to electrify classic cars may surprise some. "We're not doing this because we're the hardcore environmentalists or we're trying to save the earth," says Bream. "If we can't at least double your horsepower and torque, we won't touch the car." In fact, EV West brings a race-tested performance pedigree to back up those boasts. The company competed in the electric class at Pikes Peak, has run through the desert at Baja, and in general has successfully proved that battery-electric vehicles can compete at a high level.

Dyno run hints VW GTI power might be significantly underrated
Wed, Feb 4 2015Are you one of the lucky owners of the 2015 Volkswagen GTI? If yes, you should be happy, because your 210- or 220-horsepower hot hatchback might actually have more like 260 ponies under its hood. That's according to a dyno test from a vendor on, of all places, a Ford Focus ST enthusiast forum. The company is estimating a 15-percent drivetrain loss with the GTI's best result a whopping 263 horsepower and 314 pound-feet of torque at the crank. That's a tremendous difference from the 210 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque that Volkswagen claims. Of course, this is merely one dyno session on one car. We'll have to wait until more 2015 GTI owners get on the rolling road to see if Volkswagen really was as conservative about its hot hatch's output as FocusST.org claims.

VW launches special edition Touareg X
Tue, 03 Dec 2013Volkswagen is no stranger to special editions, but its Touareg SUV has remained largely unspecial in terms of exclusive trims or unique packages. That's changed with the announcement of the Touareg X, a 1,000-unit run based on the V6 TDI Lux trim - mid-range diesel model, between the navigation-equipped TDI Sport and the TDI R-Line.
The already special Touareg gets 19-inch "Moab" wheels, LED taillights (to go along with its LED DRLs) and "Touareg X" badging, while all 1,000 units will be painted Moonlight Blue Pearl. Tweaks in the cabin are equally light, with a black-on-black-on-black color scheme dominating - black Vienna leather, a black headliner and piano black trim. Aluminum bits make an appearance in the form of the door sills and pedals, although that's about it.
Other than those few aesthetic tweaks, the Touareg X is equipped largely like the Touareg Lux on which it's based. That means navigation, a panoramic sunroof, power seats, LED running lights, dual-zone air conditioning and heated power seats, among other tech pieces. Pricing starts at $56,170, making for a slight bump of $1,195 over the standard Touareg Lux.
