1959 Vw Bug Volkswagen Beetle California Dry Solid Bug No Rot All Og Pans,heat on 2040-cars
Princeton Junction, New Jersey, United States

You are bidding on a 1959 Volkswagen Beetle. This is a super solid car that was originally from California. It even still has a service sticker in the driver's side door jamb from a service shop in California! This car has rust free, rot free original heater channels and floor pans in it. Save time and money not having to buy heater channels and pans, weld them in, and still never be as good as factory! The interior is all original down to the factory blue paint, with some worn out slip on seat covers covering the original vinyl seat covers and horsehair padding. Headliner is gone, and the majority of the carpet and rubber floor mats are gone, some remnants remain. The 36HP starts right up and runs like a sewing machine. Idles nice, with no exhaust leaks, taps, or knocks. Has a newer 6V battery. The entire fuel system has been flushed out, including the humpback fuel tank. The brake system has been completely overhauled using new wheel cylinders, master cylinders, shoes and hardware. The original split case transaxle has some issues with 1st gear and reverse. You can forcefully get it into gear, but there is certainly an issue. I am told this is very common with these early split case transaxles. I can include an additional transaxle from a 1958 parts car, but it's condition is unknown. I was planning on having a later 60's transaxle rebuilt and put into the car. The car is not very driveable, but bolt-on parts are the easy part with these old VW's. The car is sitting on 4 Coker Tire brand wide white wall radial tires with good life in them. Has the original "H" apron in nice shape. The front apron has been replaced back in the day, as well as the hood - however it still retains a correct 4 tab hood. The front fenders were never replaced, but repaired with bondo and could use replacement, or just leave them alone if you're going after the patina look. The car is sprayed in white paint from years and years back and has weathered and worn over time. It's possible the original blue paint can be uncovered with hard work and determination, if not, this car is an excellent candidate for a repaint as it's so solid. Doors show no signs of rust or rot, nor do the rear quarter panels, decklid, etc. Roof shows no dents or dings, and the gutter channels are nice and straight. Has the original rear "dimpled" fenders with snowflake tail lights. I think the pictures do the talking for anything else I may have left out! Car has a clean and clear NJ title. Please contact me at any time at 917-533-2786 with any other questions you may have for this car. I am shipping friendly and will gladly work with you on shipping, or you can come to my house and pick her up! She rolls perfectly with a towbar. For sale locally and reserve the right to end auction if the right cash buyer shows up! |

Recharge Wrap-up: Smart Ready for Rent, MOIA comes to US in 2018
Mon, Dec 12 2016Daimler is launching its "Smart Ready to Rent" service in Europe. Beginning this month in German and French cities, the rental scheme bridges the gap between short-term Car2go rentals and longer leases. Customers book the Smart model of their choice – including the emissions-free Electric Drive and the hotter Brabus versions – for a period of one day up to three months. As such, Smart Ready to Rent is useful to those who live outside of an urban center. Users can book a car online or through a dealer, and vehicles are collected and returned at the dealership. Read more at Green Car Congress. Volkswagen will launch its MOIA mobility arm in the US in 2018. The recently announced brand will take on public transportation as a competitor with services such as ride hailing and car sharing. VW is looking into forging partnerships with the likes of technology and ride sharing companies. The automaker also expects to show an electric shuttle-type concept in 2017 for pooling services, but will use the three-row VW Atlas crossover in the meantime until that concept reaches production. Look to see MOIA emerging in major cities along the US coasts. Read more at Automotive News. A new report from Lux Research suggests that most EV batteries are better off being recycled than reused. Once lithium-ion batteries have outlived their usefulness for automotive duty, some automakers (BMW, Nissan, and Toyota included) are looking at ways to use their remaining capacity, such as for stationary energy storage. The new report, though, says that reusing batteries offers "questionable returns on account of reduced performance." Better to be like Tesla, and just recycle them. Read more at Hybrid Cars.

Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
VW LogBox and Race App performance data logger for R models [w/video]
Tue, Dec 30 2014Now that it's got a 300-horsepower Golf R to brag about, Volkswagen wants you to be able to brag about it accurately with the LogBox and Race App performance data logging combo. Plug the LogBox into your VW's OBD II port and it sends data over BlueTooth to the Race App, measuring variables like acceleration, distance, G-force and engine performance. If you're on a circuit, it uses Google Maps to make a map of the track, and you can record live video in-app to match with the data. Volkswagen says the LogBox will be available for R models and "a range of further Volkswagen cars," so you'll want to hit up your dealer with questions before ordering. It's available from the VW accessories store for 299 euros ($365 US), but right now the free app is only available in German, in the German-language iTunes and Google Play store. We imagine that will be corrected shortly; in the meantime, the video can show you how it works.
