This Classic is 42 years old... Right...???"

I have reveived many compliments on my Bug.  I am the 3rd owner.  I have owned it since April of this year.  The top is appx. 5 years old and in good condition(NO rips NOR tears NOR leaks).  I blew the 1776 and had an 1835(New) installed in July.  It currently has appx. 600 miles.  Dual Kadrons, remote oil filter w/ 1.5qt deep-sump oil pan, 55amp alt., electronic ignition, 8-pin, lightened flywheel, 1700# clutch, short throw shifter w/ custom lever, new EMPI 8-spokes and new tires(300m); 185/65-205/65-15.  "IF" one wants to restore it to original/new condition, it could use a new dash, new glass/windshield/frames/rubber, classic, low-back buckets, carpet.  However, in it's current conditon, it has been previouly entered in a few, local, Reno Summer shows.  No one that has seen or driven this auto, dislikes it.  I am working on grad school and moving to another part of the country by the end of the year.  It was a nice project, but I no longer have a place to store it for the Winter nor the time nor the effort to continue this labor of love...

World Car Of The Year down to its final four

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
