Custom 1975 Volkswagen Beetle

4 speed manual transmission

Powered by a Yamaha FZR 1000 Engine!

This beetle has a custom installed Yamaha FZR 1000 engine! The FZR engine is mated directly to the Volkswagen transmission via driveshaft. All shifting is done through the Volkswagen transmission. Thus retaining all forward and reverse gears. Most motorcycle engine transplants into vehicles do not have reverse. The engine is mounted solid with custom motor mounts. It starts every time without choke, shifts smoothly & pulls like mad!

It is a True sleeper! I'm pretty sure you could kill some Mustangs and Camaros!

The body has been painted matte / satin green and is pretty straight for its age.

The floor pan is very solid. No patch work has been done. There are some rust holes on the bottom of the heater tubes. But could be patched in easily.

The interior is all there. Door panels need to be redone. Front and rear seats are in better than average condition. Headliner needs to be replaced. The rear sections around the rear windows are ripped. The ignition switch does not return to home. So once it starts it needs to be turned back a 1/4 turn. Lights and signals work.

What this car needs is someone with a vision to finish it. The hard part is done. It is a PROJECT and needs lots of love.

Please ask all questions prior to bidding! Ask your wife, girlfriend or mom before you bid!

Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.

Translogic 164: Driving the fuel cell vehicles of the 2014 LA Auto Show

Wed, Nov 26 2014

The LA Auto Show is known for its environmentally friendly vehicle debuts. At last year's show, hydrogen fuel cell concepts from Honda and Toyota joined a lease-ready Hyundai Tucson FCEV to cast a green hue over the convention center. This year, automakers took us a step closer to a fuel cell future by offering drives of their hydrogen-electric hybrids. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley takes a ride in the Toyota Mirai, which is headed for production in 2016. He follows that with a spin in the Volkswagen Passat HyMotion and the Audi A7 Sportback h-tron quattro concept. Which of these fuel cell vehicles holds the most promise? Tune in to find out.
