I have an original 1973 super beetle(72 design early design) marina blue in color, indigo blue interior. I have all registration from date it rolled off show room until it was stored and I purchased it. I drove this to work everyday until I lost my job and cannot afford to continue to repair the age of the vehicle. when the original owner passed away it sat in probate court until auctioned and purchased by me.
The Good
I have redone the ignition have replaced all brake lines, ignition was changed to electronic magneto style ignition(still have all the original parts), tires are in good condition 7/32, has dealer original a/c needs new still runs fans work needs conversion to r-134 and hosing, pulled and de-rusted gas tank, tune up, transmission flush, new wheel cylinders
The Bad...
It doesn't run. I am getting too many Ohms to the ignition coil for it to be able to fire the spark plugs. it maybe a pinch or something else in the original wiring harness. there is no headliner. someone for the auction redid the seats, headliner and put a cover in the dash. In the process they installed the headliner wrong and covered up the holes for the cab light and handles in car. it was also starting to fall and didn't look right.
The dash is a bad cover up they covered the heater holes and such. I don't know what the dash looks like underneath .
The seats were very well done they are done correctly and nicely. Problem is the rear seat has never been sat in, in its life. When they redid the back seat they added padding to take out the depressions where your behind goes and now you cannot use the seat belt because you are up to high.
the radio doesn't work I don't know why I haven't dived into it. It is the original radio. I haven't been able to pull it because there is an a/c system in the way.
The Brakes where bleed and paid for to be bleed. They claimed there was issues with brakes and said that is why they couldn't bleed them. Problem was they bleed backwards. its a dual plunger master. so no brakes up front and tons in back. I can fix just haven't.
can get all electrical fixed within 7 days of selling at no extra cost.

VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016
Mon, 13 Jan 2014On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico. Read the full statement below for more.
