This is a 1972 v8 vw bug project.( THE WHEELS DONT GO WITH THE CAR)Please read all before bidding because I have parts that I didn't take pics of. I have a clear tn title for the bug. This is a square tube custom chassis with 4 wheel disk brakes, 4 link rear suspension with panhard bar with coil over shocks. IT has tube front a arms, new coil overs for the front, rack and pinion. The firewall is 90% done, the floor is 90% done needs little more welding and it needs a trans tunnel. Custom chassis is made to the body, motor and trans mounts are tacked in, motor is bad JUST USED IT FOR SET UP ONLY. The trans is a 400 turbo that I bought as a good one? Car comes with new aluminum radiator, hpc coated block hugger headers, a new I did it tilt steering column still in the box, new steering u joints and shaft to hook up all the steering. New front hood, New 3in wider rear glass fenders, New glass running boards and new 2in wider front glass fenders. I also have a gas tank that will fit in the rear of the car where the org motor went, I have some of the glass and the window regulators for the doors, New trans cooler. I have a set of tail lights and head light buckets that will go with the car.I just don't have the time to finish the car so it needs a good home and someone needs to enjoy this car. I reserve the right to stop the auction for I have the car for sale locally. If the car doesn't sale I would be interested in a trade for something old or at least something that's running and not a big project. So happy bidding and good luck. I drive a truck and im gone a lot so it would be best to call with any Q. 423-400-4414 Thanks BOBBY

Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.
VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool
Tue, 04 Jun 2013There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
