1987 Vw Jetta Gli Turbo Diesel, Racaro Seats, New Engine, Power Steering. 47 Mpg on 2040-cars
Woodburn, Oregon, United States
Up for auction today is a 1987 VW Jetta GLI Turbo Diesel. I bought this car from a friend who has owned it for the last 5 years, but he took it to a oil change place and they did not put the filter back on right, and her blew the motor. The oil change place paid him but not enough to fix this car so I bought it from him. I did not want to try and rebuild his motor, so I took a 1.6 turbo diesel I bought and put it in. The engine was rebuilt from the ground up with all new internal parts. The new engine has about 1500 miles on it, it runs beautiful, and gets 47-52 MPG. I really like this care, but I need something that is a little more utility oriented. The car is in great condition, and gets a ton of VW people asking questions. I am going to list the good on this car, then the bad.
1. New rebuilt engine. Rebuild entails new main bearing, rod bearings, intermediate shaft bearing, engine seals, connecting rod, oil pump, gaskets, head bolts, cam, valves, timing belt, glow plugs, rebuilt injectors 2. Rebuilt injection pump. 3. Rebuilt turbo 20K ago. 4. New alternator 20k ago. 5. New clutch, flywheel, pressure plate 6. New battey 7. New CV shaft 8k ago. 8. New front brakes 5k ago. 9. New euro grill and head lights. 9. Racaro trophy seats. 10 Beautiful headliner. 11. Nice carpets. 12. New CD player with ipod in. 13. Teardrop wheels with tire 70% good. 14. GLI body package. 15. Electrical works great. 16. No leaks. 17. No rust. 18. Body and pint in great condition. 19. Door seals in perfect condition. Bad. 1. Dash has a few cracks. 2. A/C not working? 3. Front seats have some cracks but no holes. 4. Cruise control not working. 5. Has small dings/scratches here and there. 6. One mark on hood where some one painted it. See pictures. I have done a honest and fare accounting on this car to the best of My ability. This is a great car that is sure to give many more years of great service. I would feel safe driving this car 1000 plus mile on a trip or as a daily commuter. It is car is not perfect, but you would be hard pressed to find one in this nice of a condition. This is your chance to get your hands on a beautiful car that will be hard to find later. This auction is for a car that is sold as is.

Car and Driver shows off awesome 1960s ads
Fri, Sep 11 2015Someone must have recently rediscovered the keys to the archives at Car and Driver, and the access has been put to good use. Following last month's fantastic look at automotive ads from the '50s, there's now a new gallery running from March 1960 through December 1969. This collection provides a great overview of a decade full of iconic cars. If you're a fan of Carroll Shelby, particularly his Mustangs, then there's a lot to love among this group. One ad from July 1965 aimed to sell the GT350, but with an ocean of text and a tiny picture, it probably could've used a once-over by Don Draper's team. By December '65, the copywriters ironed out the problems with a spot proclaiming boldly "Shelby GT350 is 'Son of Cobra.'" The company offered some great accessories, too. For those into European motoring, there's a humorous attempt to sell the Alfa Romeo Giulia as both a racecar and family hauler. Toyota also boasts about the winning record for the 2000GT. Among the best text comes from BMW for lines like: "What's BMW got? The most advanced high-performance engine in any production car, for a cruising speed of 100 mph." Of course, Volkswagen's famous "Lemon" ad for the Beetle also gets its due here. Separately, each of these ads is fascinating, but taken together they tell the story of a great decade of motoring. Go give them all a read at Car and Driver.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
