I am having a "reality sale" for some of the cars I have had in storage inside for years. I recently realized that I am never going to get to these cars and that they should go to someone who will appreciate them. This car is a 1978 Volkswagen Convertible with 58,971 original miles on it. It has its original fuel injected motor and manual transmission. The car has a couple of dents ( passenger door and front right fender) which are both an easy fix. 90 % of the rust you see in the pictures is surface only. The top and front seats will need to be replaced. It has new tires (4) and will run with fresh gas. I am in the process of getting it running again. The floor is rusted through a bit where the battery is and near the front which will need to be replaced. All of the glass is good with no cracks and under the hood is very solid and undented. The car currently does not have a title but I contacted the previous owner who is the original owner and we are working to obtain paperwork. Please ask me questions if needed and anyone is welcome to come look at it. All sales are final. I will be listing several other cars and VW parts in the coming months so please check back if this car is not what you are looking for. Thank you and good luck.

Porsche 911 with VW turbodiesel prepares for LeMons assault

Fri, 21 Mar 2014

LeMons racing is a wonderful example that setting limits can actually breed creativity. The series mandates that all entries must cost $500, not counting safety equipment, and that cap forces teams to be ingenious in how they build a racecar. Take for example this diesel-powered Porsche 911, which its creators have dubbed Ferkel the Nein-11, that will be racing in the Sears Pointless race this weekend in Sonoma, California.
This Frankenstein combines a 911 chassis that was originally bought just for its European powertrain and a Volkswagen TDI diesel engine mounted in the rear. After deciding the shell could still be of some use, the team decided to go racing. "We began brainstorming what replacement drivetrain to use for maximum offense and there was really only one answer: a diesel," said Philipp von Weitershausen, one of the team captains, to Jalopnik. They bought a 1998 Jetta TDI on the cheap and started figuring out a way to hack the engine into the bay. To pay respect to the donor, the VW's trunk was highly modified (and drilled) and grafted onto the back of Ferkel.
This team isn't a newcomer to LeMons. Its last car was a classic VW Beetle with a Subaru engine and dual controls, named Ferdinand the Bug, which could be driven from the left or right side. It's quite a sight.

10 best new car deals of November 2021

Thu, Nov 4 2021

Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
