Before i begin i put the mileage as it is on the odometer but im sure it is that plus at least 100,000 more.This bug is going to be up for auction for this seven days ONLY ! If it does not sell in the 7 days its going to be parted out by day 8. Im not trying to sound rude but i just dont have the room or time to keep dealing with it, i have waaay to many projects on my plate rite now.Also this vehicle will need to be trailered or put on a flat bed, it is NOT road worthy !!One last thing, This beetle has a clear michigan title,the title is the old style Michigan titles that have not been used since the 80,s. The title is also an open title which means that i have not registered it, it has been signed over to me but i have not filled in the blanks. OK ! Now about the bug!  In my opinion this is a great parts bug but as far as restoring it i feel its too far gone. The floors and rockers have been sort of repaired (see picture) someone spent a lot of time doing what they did but its all pretty useless repair and would need to be all torn out.The doors are both in good shape and i dont see any repairs on them.Both door windows roll up and down with a lot of help (they are real tight) both vent windows open and close.Both door locks work from inside but do not work with key.Both door handles work outside and inside.Both doors drop about 1 inch at rear when opened due to door post on car rotted at bottom.Rear deck lid looks good.Front trunk lid has some minor dents and some surface rust but nothing to serious.The trunk lid also does not latch but everything is there,probably just an adjustment.Wiper motor works on both speeds but there are no wiper arms.Windshield has some wiper scratches.rear window has the defroster element in glass and it looks good but i have not tested it.This bug has no brakes! I added some brake fluid and it started to get pressure then lost it.Theres no leaking brake fluid so i think the master cylinder went.Since there is no brake pressure the brake lights also do not work but one tail light does work.Also one head light works.Turn signals dont work.The sunroof opens all the way and closes 99% of the way, it just doesnt seem to want to go that last 1/4 inch to close. The engine runs very strong and doesnt leak or burn any oil.I did just put a new fuel pump on it the past week, which is understandable since it hasnt run in over 20 years! The engine doesnt seem to want to idle to well which is also understandable since it is missing most of the vacuum lines and still has some really old gas still running through the carb.The engine turns on and off from the key but i had to use a remote starter switch to crank the starter.(remote starter switch is NOT included but you can borrow it to get car on trailer) Also the battery is NOT included but you can use it to start it and get it on trailer.The tranny shifts through all gears and the clutch seems fine.The tires are in pretty good shape with lots of rubber and only a little bit of minor dry rot.Three of the tires hold air with no problem but the driver side front one has a bad valve stem and leaks down in about an hour! The rear seat is missing the back of seat, there is only the bottom section.
Well i guess thats about it.You will notice that one picture is of parts,all of those parts are included with the car and i will list them below. I can also offer delivery on an open trailer for $1.00 per mile per mapquest mileage from my address to your address, USA only, sorry but no Canada delivery.If the delivery option is chosen ,the delivery fee will be paid in advance and is NON-REFUNDABLE !!   The winning bidder will pay a NON-REFUNDABLE $100.00 deposit within 24 hours of auction end.Balance to be paid in full within 7 days of auction end.Balance to be paid in CASH at time of pickup.Vehicle is to be removed from my property within 7 days of auction end unless prior agreement has been made BEFORE bidding on car!
Any questions feel free to email me,i will answer usually within 30 minutes.If you want more pictures,please be specific about areas you want pictures of.
Thanks for looking and have a great night!

Only VW, Volvo are doing enough to electrify in Europe, study says

Wed, Jun 16 2021

Among major carmakers, Volkswagen and Volvo are doing enough to electrify their vehicle lineups in Europe, and the EU needs to set tougher CO2 emission limits if it wants to meet Green Deal targets, according to a climate group's study. Sales of battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids almost tripled last year, boosted by tighter emission standards and government subsidies. This summer, the European Union is expected to announce more ambitious CO2 targets; by 2030, the average CO2 emissions of new cars should be 50% below 2021 levels, versus the existing target of 37.5%. Volkswagen aims to have 55% group-wide BEV sales in Europe by 2030, while Swedish carmaker Volvo, owned by China's Geely says its lineup will be fully electric by then. VW ID4 front three quarter dark View 19 Photos Based on IHS Markit car production forecasts, according to the study from European campaign group Transport and Environment (T&E), Volkswagen and Volvo have "aggressive and credible strategies" to shift from fossil-fuel cars to electric vehicles. Others like Ford Motor Co have set ambitious targets, "but lack a robust plan to get there," T&E said. Ford plans an all-electric lineup in Europe by 2030. T&E said BMW, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), Daimler AG and Toyota rank the worst as they have low BEV sales, have "no ambitious phase-out targets, no clear industrial strategy, and an over-reliance in the case of BMW, Daimler and Toyota on hybrids." JLR, owned by India's Tata Motors, says its luxury Jaguar brand will be all-electric by 2025, but has been less specific about electrification of its higher-volume Land Rover brand. BMW and Daimler have been reluctant to set hard deadlines for phasing out fossil-fuel cars. T&E said even if carmakers meet their targets, in 2030 BEV sales could be 10 percentage points below those needed to meet the EU's Green Deal — which targets net zero emissions by 2050. Rather than a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030, based on carmakers' existing production plans, the EU could set more ambitious targets, T&E said - an up to 35% reduction in CO2 emissions from new cars by 2025, around 50% by 2027 and up to 70% in 2030. "Targets need to be gradually tightened so that carmakers not only commit to phasing out fossil fuels, but develop a strategy that gets them there on time," Julia Poliscanova, T&E senior director for vehicles and e-mobility, said in a statement.
