This is my beautiful 1962 Bug that I bought while stationed in Germany.  I had the entire floor pan system as well as the nose and rear apron replaced before I brought it to the USA in 2007.  It's been garaged ever since and got a new coat of paint in 2010.  I've spent over $15000 on this car and probably put that many hours of work into it too.  She's still needs some work in the engine compartment if you wanted it to be "Show" ready although I've won a few trophies in the 'daily driver" category.  If you are a serious VW fan, you will fall in love with this car as I did.  Along with the car, I have a second set of original wheels painted white W/tires and the classic moon caps if you like the retro look.  I also have a new set of vinyl seat covers matching the ones in the photo, I just never got around to putting them on.  I also have a cool tool box that I fixed up to match the car.  You'll see it in the pic.  I even have the original vehicle manual that came with the car in 1962 (in German).  This the second time I'm putting her up for auction.  I lowered the reserve to make it more reasonable for anyone interested.  Good luck!  Happy Bidding!

Pick up only from the Fort Bragg, NC area.

Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show

Mon, 05 Mar 2012

The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.

Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
