Oneyear only 1967 Volkswagen Beetle
Rebuilt 1600cc motor, runs and drives great. This car was my daily driver for nearly two years. The odometer reads 39,115 however the previous owner did not know if it was correct when I bought the car and as such, I don’t either. I did a lot of work to this car to get it set up as a reliable daily. The car has a 2” narrowed adjustable beam which gets the car low, but not slammed, and has new shocks to match. I lowered the rear to match. The wheels were replaced with stock bug rims, which I had powdercoated satin black. The tires are NEW full size (165s) to keep the ride comfortable. Also while doing this I added all new brakes including brand new drums and bearings. The only modifications I made to the motor are a larger oil breather and electronic ignition for reliability, and the carhas a 12v charging system. The car starts up first try every time. The exhaust was replaced with the “Eurosport” style and it sounds nice, but isn’t obnoxiously loud. The interior is in good shape with the only exceptions being the headliner (new headliner included with the car) shifter knob, and dash grab handle. The car has an Autometer tachometer on the steering column. The front seats have brand new seat covers and the driver’s seat has new seat foam. The rear seat in great shape. The door panels are new as are the grab handles. I installed “Fat Mat” sound deadening on the floors and firewall area. The old grant wheel was replaced with an original style ivory one. The head unit has a pop out touch screen, auxiliary (headphone style) input and is capable all sorts of fancy stuff I never got a chance to use! I added two 6x9” Sony speaker boxes behind the rear seat and a 6” Sony speaker hidden behind the grille in the dash. The car has an older paint job (dark navy/cobalt blue metallic) and some small spots had flaked off. I touched them up to prevent rust. The paint on the rear apron does have some cracks due to the heat from the cars old exhaust.
All in all this is a great car, if I had the space I wouldn't hesitate to keep it. You can jump in this one year only 67 Beetle and drive anywhere!

Volkswagen Group looks to add ridesharing brand to portfolio
Fri, Sep 30 2016Volkswagen is rapidly trying to put the ongoing diesel scandal behind it at the Paris Motor Show with the unveiling of the automaker's electric I.D. Concept. In addition to unveiling the EV, the automaker also announced that it established a yet-to-be-named subsidiary for ridesharing purposes. The new brand will be VW Group's 13th, and will add mobility services to in the form of a carpooling service, similar to that of Uber and Lyft. This will include teaming up with Gett – a cab-hailing startup that operates in roughly 70 cities worldwide, which includes New York City, that was previously known as GetTaxi. Earlier this year, VW invested $300 million in the company. In addition to ridesharing, VW Group claims it is also hard at work on its own shuttle service as the brand aims to become a leader in urban mobility services by 2025. The name of the 13th brand and more information on the subsidiary will be released in November. VW Group also announced plans to give Gett drivers in Moscow, Russia "preferential terms" on a Volkswagen Polo, Volkswagen Jetta, Skoda Octavia, or Skoda Rapid. VW Group's 13th brand sounds similar to Mercedes-Benz's Vision Van Concept, which the automaker would allow consumers to lease and purchase the vehicle, as well as rent its services on a short-term basis. While the Vision Van Concept is a commercial vehicle that has delivery drones on the roof to aid deliveries, VW Group's shuttle service sounds more like autonomous buses to ferry people around. Now that diesels are dead, Volkswagen has quickly embraced the future, where autonomous and electric vehicles coexist. Related Video: Related Gallery Volkswagen I.D.

Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018
Thu, 04 Apr 2013Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.
Recharge Wrap-up: VW CEO mulls battery factory, voters approve $201B in transportation funding
Mon, Nov 21 2016Volkswagen Group CEO Matthias Muller says that it would "make sense" for the automaker to begin producing its own batteries. As the company moves toward electrification, Muller says it would be a smart move to build a battery factory. "If more than a quarter of our cars are to be electronic vehicles in the foreseeable future then we are going to need approximately 3 million batteries a year," he says. Volkswagen has agreed to cut 30,000 jobs in its restructuring, while committing to creating 9,000 jobs in Germany through battery manufacturing and mobility services.

Earlier this month, voters in 22 states approved ballot measures adding up to $201 billion in funding for transportation projects, according to the American Road & Transportation Builders Association. California passed 15 transportation measures, including one in Los Angeles worth $120 billion for roads, bridges, and transit. The state of Washington secured $54 billion for light rail and buses. Atlanta approved about $4 billion for road and transit projects. Illinois and New Jersey passed measures to prevent the diversion of transportation user fee revenue to other industries.

A Delaware federal judge ordered the DOE to give the documents – which concern a presentation by Fisker to the DOE in which it falsely claimed to meet milestones set forth in a government loan – to lawyers in a case in which investors claim Fisker lied to them about financial troubles. While the DOE has given over documents already, they were incomplete and heavily redacted. "I understand that such disclosures may have a negative impact on future DOE analyses," says US District Judge Sue Robinson. "but conclude nonetheless that under the circumstances at bar – the public money at stake, the Congressional hearings, and the fact that Fisker Automotive is now a defunct company – the balance of interests favors plaintiffs."
