This is a 1973 karmann Ghia Volkswagen that was traded in at a Dodge dealership here in North Alabama and whom we purchased it from.I will do my best to describe the car but by no means am I an expert on Volkswagens.The car was driven about 75 miles back after we purchased it with no problems other than it does not want to idle on its on when sitting still.This is not a show car and basically will need a FULL RESTORATION.It is missing the front door panels,headliner,rearview,rubber drivers door moulding,glove box button and door sill on drivers door.That is what we can see that is missing.The front seats are pretty much worn out and have seat covers on them,The back seat looks pretty good for its age.It has an aftermarket radio(works).The heat seems to work.The wipers work.The headlights,tail lights,dash lights work.I dont think fuel gauge is working.It looks to be missing a couple emblems on the body.All the glass is good.The motor runs but does not idle on its on,It also has oil residue on and around the engine,So basically you can probably count on an engine REBUILD also.The brakes seem to work good.The body overall seems to be pretty solid with very minimal rust,A few little bubble spots on lower panel and a couple small spots underneath(see pics).The bumpers look pretty good.The car is showing the mileage in the 20k range but have no way of knowing if it is 120k or 520k.We have the original owners manual,books and original invoice when purchased new in Texas.Also a box of what looks to be some door handle bezels and trim.The state of Alabama does not require Titles for this year model so it will come with tag receipt and a bill of sale only.So please make sure this is not a problem in your state.If you would like to come see the car(which I encouarge very highly) or have any questions please feel free ask and I will do my best to answer.The car is being Sold in AS IS condition and is located in North Alabama about 20 miles east of Huntsville.

VW Up Buggy may be headed to showrooms

Tue, 02 Jul 2013

Volkswagen showed six conceptual takes on its Up at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, one of those being the Up Buggy. Although few will probably remember it, VW has not forgotten it, applying for a patent for the Meyers Manx revival roadster way back in March 2012 and being approved in June of this year, according to a report in Autocar. That will give the automaker a 14-year lock on the design while it decides whether to move forward with a reboot of its past.
A patent doesn't mean the Up Buggy will ever move beyond the sheet-of-paper stage, but Autocar says VW is studying the market to see if a production version is feasible. We can't see North America ever getting it, but even so, we wouldn't complain if they made it - especially if they put an exposed engine in back that was set off by 18-inch-long twin tailpipes jutting straight up into the air. However, for a company that aims to be the world's number-one automaker by 2018, a niche vehicle for its mass-market brand would be a surprising use of resources.

Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.
