This is an ongoing project. We have it running great, new brakes, some new engine parts. All exterior lights work. It needs new floor pans welded in (the usual VW rust has eaten through the floor pans) and seat tracks. It has only two small dents and many little cosmetic problems. The dash board has a crack in it and the instruments work but the instrument lights do not work. It was originally green but re-painted red a few years ago. It needs new door panels and new upholstery on the floor. The plastic seats are not cracked. It has the original seat belts. It has a brand new convertible top that was eaten through by mice in my garage and needs to be replaced :-<. It has the original glass rear window and all frame parts for the top. There are too many little issues to describe here, like the inside of the glove box needs to be put in (reproduction glove box liners are available online). I took photos of some things that need attention. The tires are in great shape, we recently drove from Cincinnati Ohio to Lawrenceburg Indiana on the freeway and on back roads with no problems. The transmission is tight and it shifts like a brand new car. A couple of new brake lines, cylinders and shoes. The engine hums like a bee. It's a real pleasure to drive.
The mileage is unknown. I put 100,000 because eBay won't let me leave this field blank. The actual mileage is somewhat less, according to my mechanic. The odometer/speedometer was replaced and many of the parts on this car were replaced with either original VW parts or with reproduction parts from the VW folks in California. You know the ones. Every single part of this car is available online, except for the rear glass window and dashboard. They make glue-on dash boards that cover the old one, but I never bought one. The headlights and all lights work but the instrument panel lights do not. I ordered a new headlight switch (which controls the panel lights) because the old one is bad and I should have it replaced by the time the auction ends.
This vehicle may be seen and driven any time. Email me for an appointment if you'd like to do a test drive and inspection.

10 best new car deals of November 2021
Thu, Nov 4 2021Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
Volkswagen NMC production guise caught in China
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Chinese car site Autohome has what are said to be the first pictures of the Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe concept in production form. VW's NMC was just introduced at the Beijing Motor Show, while background chatter indicated it would go on sale in China, Autohome says that production version will be built at the Shanghai-Volkswagen plant in Ningbo, and the retail guise could be introduced at the Guangzhou Motor Show in November and go on sale that same month.
Assuming this is the production car, its main lines have made the jump from the concept but with less fine detailing, a silver hue and with conventional VW wheels it's lost a little bit of oomph. Still, a few checkmarks on the option sheet can fix most of that, the shape remains handsome and the 2.0-liter turbo underhood keeps performance peppy and mileage frugal enough. You can head to Autohome for a couple more photos of a sedan we'd be happy to make room for over here.
