1968 Convertible *** No Reserve *** No Reserve * Runs Great on 2040-cars
Madera, California, United States
1968 Volkswagen Convertible w/ dual port single carb 1600. Runs really good. It will do about 70 mph in 3rd gear. New clutch shifts very smooth through all gears w/ no pop outs. The paint in brand new but was not a very good job. Looks really good at a distance and in the pictures then it does up close and personal. The front windshield, hood, Empi rims, front and rear bumper all 4 tires and rear shocks are all brand new. Newer carpet with interior rustproofing/soundproofing was applied when the seats and carpet was professionally redone. Has low backs in it. It also has a brand new am/fm cd player that's in the glovebox. The engine runs good. The transmission shifts good. The car drives okay but will need some attention to the front end. Maybe just shocks or tie rod ends would be my guess. It's a California car with a clean title and current registration. All the lights and blinkers work. The speedo and odometer work. But I am certain the mileage has turned over. The horn was rewired and was working until it didn't want to shut off one day so it's disconnected. Now for the really bad part. The convertible top works opens and shuts but will eventually need to be replace. Its starting to show some wear. The heater/frame rails and battery tray are in really bad condition as you can see in the pictures everything else underneath seems to be pretty solid. ( please see pics ). I will be happy to answer any questions. This vehicle is not sold with any kind of warranty and it is being sold as is. So please ask any questions you may have. I have tried to explain everything to the best of my knowledge. Once the auction has ended a $500 deposit must be made within 48 hours. The remainder of the balance to be paid in full with in 3 days or if we make other arrangements. Any bidders with a feedback score of 10 or less must contact before placing a bid or your bid will be canceled. That doesn't mean you cant bid. It just means that I would like to speak with you before placing a bid. Thanks 4 looking and good luck if your bidding. Shipping and all costs related to shipping will be the winning bidders responsibility. I will assist if needed. Thank again |

2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible gets the R-Line treatment
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Volkswagen just launched the topless Beetle Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, but we're already seeing the next step forward in the topless Bug range with this, the R-Line. We'll admit, this treatment falls under the "all show and no go" category, but it's still a pretty potent little cutie.
The R-Line starts with a standard Beetle Turbo Convertible but adds unique 19-inch aluminum wheels on lower-profile tires, LED daytime running lamps and Xenon headlamps. Naturally, there are R-Line badges aplenty both on the interior and exterior, and we must say, the whole package looks pretty darn snazzy.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but when it goes on sale later this year, the hotter convertible will join Volkswagen's growing R-Line portfolio that now includes the CC, Beetle hatch, Tiguan and Touareg.
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
