1973 Classic Beetle - Orange, Mechanically Sound, Great Start For Restoration on 2040-cars
Callao, Virginia, United States
|
Enjoy the fun of a vintage Beetle...buy this one for less than many comparables. We took this in on trade from the owner who had full intention of completing a total restoration. She found some financial trouble and had to part with her 'baby'. She had spent a lot of money to make it mechanically sound. It does start reliably, and drive very well. It has a new carburetor, and many other new/rebuilt parts.
Left to do is the cosmetic, appearance items. The original orange exterior paint is pretty good...I'm thinking a good buff and wax will bring it out very well. The wheels and bumpers do show some surface rust, as do the engine exhaust tips. All glass is good...blemish free. The interior will benefit from a good cleaning. The cloth seats are good, without rips or tears. The headliner is intact, but there are two rips in the back seat area. The passenger side window crank is missing. I think this bug is a great 'project' for anyone wanting to do a restoration --without being overwhelmed -- financially or emotionally. The tires are fat with strong tread. They are Kumho P205/75R15 black walls. I have tried to describe this vehicle as best I can, but you understand our need to sell it AS-IS -- WITHOUT WARRANTY! We are offering this vehicle for sale locally, so I reserve the right to cancel this auction at anytime. If you want to talk about this vintage Beetle call me on 804-450-1189. My name is Ken This vehicle s owned by licensed Virginia Auto Dealer number 8915. |

VW Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.
VW redoes A-ha's 'Take On Me' music video
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Volkswagen has been responsible for its fair share of witty, clever commercials. "Tiny Vader" might be the most popular, but somehow, we think this newest spot will find a big audience. VW delivers not so much a cover, but a reimagining, of 1980s Norwegian pop band A-ha's famous music video for "Take On Me."
The original opens with an animated motorcycle race, which is revealed to be part of a comic book. VW's version replaces the motorcycle with a Passat, which strikes us as an oddly sober choice when there are cars like the GTI and Beetle in VW's portfolio. But never mind that - take a look down below for the entire 46-second spot. For reference, we've also included the original music video. And if you aren't a fan of the musical stylings of A-ha, just think, VW's choice of 1980s music could have been much worse.
Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind
Mon, 28 Jan 2013TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.
