1959 double-door Panel


This VW starts right up, runs and drives straight down the road.  Clean underbody, straight body, very little rust.  Good brakes, good tires, original seat needs redone, but only original once.  Needs interior panels kit which runs $250 for the door panels, kick panels, and headliner panel.  Very easy to install.  Drive it while you restore as these are easy VW's to restore when they're not totally rusted up.  Turn signals, brake lights, interior lights, parking lights, headlights, hi/low beam, license plate light, all working. Factory cab divider in great shape.  Only horn not working.  Crack in passenger side lower front window.  All doors open and close nice, including front and side double-doors, hatch and engine lid (has VW hex key).  This would be a very easy restoration project or perfect VW for your logo to advertise your business.


Questions, please ask!  

Best offers are encouraged as my price is certainly not written in stone.


** This is a 55-year old VW Bus.  I want the winning bidder to be happy, but keep in mind you're bidding on a very old classic VW and there is no warranty implied or offered. My feedback is a TRUE 100%.  I've sold quite a few of my classic VW's, motorcycles and classic cars here on ebay over the years, and I'm honest to a fault, but cannot guarantee anything this old.  I do drive it all over town with zero issues, last time being 12/6/2013.  It is insured in my name, but the title was never put into my name.  Was going to restore but have since bought a VW camper that I just have to keep, or this 59' wouldn't be for sale!  


Clear California title and registration.  VW is located in Sarasota Florida.   

For classic, exotic, hot-rod, muscle and antique car financing,  I've heard J.J. Best Banc & Co. is excellent.   Contact Graham Berry at 1-508-991-8000 for info. on that.

Below is the NADA of this VW's value.  It's priced accordingly, and actually quite a bit above average in my opinion as it runs and drives very nice and has minimal rust.

VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.

Next VW GTI to get 10-speed dual-clutch gearbox

Wed, Nov 26 2014

Following on Volkswagen's official announcement that it was working on a ten-speed, dual-clutch transmission, Auto Express has it on "good authority" that the new transmission will end up in the next GTI, GTD and Golf R. The brand's current seven-speed will be retained for lesser eight-generation Golfs. While the new gearbox won't be limited to just the higher-end Golf range, the new hatchback, expected in 2017, will be the first to get it, Auto Express reports. The new DSG is the same size as the Volkswagen Group's seven-speed dual-clutch, and will easily fit into VAG's MQB platform, so we should expect it to filter into the rest of the Group's vehicles, much like the seven-speed 'box has. The ten-speed is likely to see applications beyond even the small cars of the MQB platform. The gearbox can handle 405 pound-feet of torque, according to AE, making its application in larger offerings such as the gas-powered MLB cars and crossovers a likelihood. Beyond the new gearbox, Volkswagen is also toying with mild-hybrid tech for the standard Golf and better batteries for the e-Golf. As we said, expect the new Golf to arrive in European markets in 2017, with the current Euro-market Golf getting updated next year. As for the US, we wouldn't be surprised if VW followed the trail blazed by the Mark 7, with a North American arrival for the eight-gem Golf slated for a year or so after sales in Europe begin.

FCA to pay buyers $1,700 to swap out of scandal-mired VWs

Tue, Oct 6 2015

FCA is trying to gain some sales from arch-rival VW in the competitive European market by offering potential buyers in Italy up to $1,700 to swap into an FCA group car. While the promotion isn't specifically targeted at TDI owners affected by the emissions scandal, it is clearly intended to turn dissatisfaction with VW's defeat device cheat into additional sales, Bloomberg reports. The 500-1,500 euro incentive (roughly $560-1,700, depending on vehicle) stacks on top of any other rebates or deals applicable, and applies if a buyer brings in any of Volkswagen Group's cars – including Audi, Skoda, and SEAT, among (many) others. As Bloomberg notes, it's normal for automakers to offer "conquest" deals – giving a buyer cash for trading in a competitor's vehicle. Those deals aren't usually limited to one company's products, however; FCA's program looks specifically to take advantage of VW's legal and public relations nightmare. FCA isn't the only automaker trying this trick in Italy. Automotive News Europe also reported that Ford is offering approximately $840 in incentives across its entire range to owners of VW vehicles seeking to trade in for a Ford. No word of yet as to whether these incentives will spread beyond Italy or to other automakers.Related Video:
