Question from eBay member: Are the running board rubbers and fender beading painted over?

Answer: Running board rubbers and fender beading are not painted. The rubber comes from Germany where the previous owner thru VW America located NOS( new old stock) and bought all they had left.

The German VW'S had color coordinated rubber to match body color. USA versions black only. Good Question.

Question from eBay member: Does car leak any oil? Can car be driven from Fl to Ca?

Answer: Car does not leak any oil or transaxle fluids at all!  VW's do not leak if properly maintained and built.

In my opinion car could be driven anywhere no problem. My question would be why drive such a spectacular car 3500+ miles . On a trip of that magnitude potential damage from rocks, truck tires,& who knows what could happen. I recommend an enclosed truck driven by pro's. This VW is that nice.   

Question from eBay member: Do you have pictures of the total body restoration, is it a bare metal refinish?

Answer: Yes do have pictures provided by previous owner showing total bare metal restoration and refinish. Will be passed along to winner. Thanks

Question from eBay member: Has the structural metal (usually rusted areas on most) been replaced?

Answer: Both pans newer, front pan under apron ( spare wheel well) and rear back seat pan( under the rear seat seen from under car above transaxle. Yes you are correct these areas usually are rusted to various degrees. These were replaced by previous owner as part of a high end restoration process. A professional job, can not tell from factory lots of money spent.  All metal epoxy coated (sealed) then 3m truck bed liner the tuff stuff not undercoating or paint that comes off, this stuff is difficult to remove period. This VW is solid!  Thanks

Question from eBay member: Does car need any work or can I enjoy right away?

Answer: Car has had it summer maintenance completed consisting of : oil/spin on filter change Castrol 20w/50 All fluids flushed and replaced,(brakes/transaxle). Spark plugs replaced , fuel filter, fan belt checked ,charging system checked replaced battery new Interstate 60mon. road test /safety check( wipers, tires and pressure) Car needs nothing

Question from eBay member: How does car do in everyday traffic. I live in New York near the city so it's some stop& go and occasional expressway driving?

Answer: Car does nicely in stop& go traffic, as well can easily keep up with traffic on highways. Over the last year car has been driven and tested under similar driving conditions. Engine is 1385 cc with the MSD ignition system, Nos alum. finned valve covers( extra cooling) non crash box transaxle so 1st gear goes in at near dead stop. Makes driving in stop/go much more relaxing.Thanks
