OVER FIVE HUNDRED JUST IN THE DOORS AND OVER A THOUSAND IN JUST RUBBER ALONE. CHASSIS THE PREVIOUS OWNER (P/O) INSTALLED NEW FLOOR PANS AND DID A GOOD JOB AND HEATER CHANNELS WERE IN GREAT CONDITION. SO, I COATED ENTIRE CHASSIS (TOP AND BOTTOM) WITH A POR 15 ANTI RUST TYPE OF PRODUCT TO PROTECT IT FOR ANOTHER FIFTY YEARS. I REPLACED EVERY SINGLE BRAKE COMPONENT WITH OEM PARTS; ALL NEW WHEEL CYLINDERS, SHOES, LINES, HARDWARE KITS AND NEW MASTER WITH SWITCHES. NEEDLESS TO SAY, SHE WILL STOP ON A DIME AND GIVE YOU CHANGE. NEXT, CAME THE MOTOR THAT I HAD SENT OUT TO ONE OF THE BEST BUILDERS IN OUR AREA.

I HAVE OVER FIVE GRAND IN THE MOTOR ALONE. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, IT RUNS AS GOOD AS SHE LOOKS AND BUILT TO LAST. THE FRONT END WAS REBUILT AS WELL WITH ALL NEW PARTS FROM ALL TIE RODS, CENTER LINK, STEERING STABILIZER, NEW FRONT KYB SHOCKS AND ADDED EXTRA SUPPORT BEAMS (LIKE THE THING HAS) THAT TIE THE FRONT END INTO THE CHASSIS FOR OFF ROADING. COIL OVERS IN THE REAR WITH ADJUSTABLE SPRING PLATES.

INTERIOR NEXT CAME THE INTERIOR WITH THE SAME KIND OF ATTENTION TO DETAIL. I HAD THE ROOF INSULATED WITH A CUSTOM HEAD LINER WITH ALL THE ROOF RAILS PAINTED MATCHING RED.

AND EVEN THOUGH I BUILT IT AS MY DAILY DRIVER AND TO WIN THE 1ST PLACE TROPHY AT THE CAR SHOW, I DID ADD THE INGREDIENTS IF YOU DARE TO TAKE IT OFF ROAD. YET, THIS BAJA HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD (BESIDES THE BEACH) BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID OF SCRATCHING IT.

Chrysler and Fiat offering $1,000 rebates to VW owners as Marchionne gets tough
Mon, 10 Dec 2012The throw-down between Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne and Volkswagen has heated up in earnest. According to Bloomberg, Fiat and Chrysler are now offering current Volkswagen owners in the US $1,000 rebates to trade in their ride. It's the latest in a series of shots Marchionne has taken at his German rival. As you may recall, the Fiat executive entered into a spat with Volkwagen board chairman Ferdinand Piëch and CEO Martin Winterkorn in October after the duo called for Marchionne's resignation from presidency of the European Automotive Manufacturers Association (AECA). At the time, the Volkswagen executives were quoted as saying Fiat would not survive the European economic downturn.
In response, Marchionne called the German executives "reprehensible," and accused Volkswagen of using a pricing strategy that has created created a "bloodbath" in the EU. Volkswagen has taken to steep discounting to carve out ever-larger slices of market share in Europe, but the company has a much smaller foothold in the US. Marchionne may be trying to hit Volkswagen where the manufacturer is weakest with the new Fiat new incentive program.
Late last week, the Fiat executive was voted to a second term as ACEA president.
Take a listen to the Volkswagen ID 3 and Koenigsegg Jesko
Sun, Dec 15 2019What could better demonstrate our diametric vehicular future than sound clips of the Volkswagen ID 3 and the Koenigsegg Jesko? Battery-electric vehicles don't make enough noise on their own, so VW partnered with composer Leslie Mandoki for the legally-mandated Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) that warns pedestrians and cyclists of the EV's presence. Mandoki — a German-Hungarian who once played drums in a Euro disco band called Dschinghis Khan — was asked to come up with a sound for the ID 3 that VW said "defines its identity," "radiates safety and the promise of effortless mobility," and that "must also impress with its unique character." The definition of the ID 3's single-motor, 201-horsepower character is this: Occupants and people around the hatch can hear the sound as the car accelerates to 18.6 mph, and when reversing. At higher speeds, the sound of wind resistance and tire noise takes over. As our library of AVAS tones grows, it's clear that EVs will provide a soundscape as varied as that of internal combustion engines. Here, for instance, is the industrial thrum used as the Karma Revero GT's pedestrian warning: And here is the sci-fi soaring from the BMW Vision M Next, as composed by Hans Zimmer: At the other end of the aural chamber, we have the Koenigsegg Jesko. In this case, the composer is a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 running on a bio-ethanol E85 blend that's almost suitable for IndyCar, powering the engine up to 1,600 horsepower. Output on pump gas will be 'only' 1,281 hp. The Swedish automaker released a clip of the exhaust note of a car in progress inside the Angelhom factory. Here's what we can look forward to: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. All these sounds have a place at the table, even if we'd prefer Karma booked some time with a producer and an Autotune session. To paraphrase Sesame Street, though, one of these sounds is definitely not like the other.
Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo
Tue, 27 Sep 2011This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.
