This is a NICE Volkswagon Beetle. This 1968 custom Beetle was a body off restoration and every nut and bolt has been replaced. There is no part of this Bug that did not receive attention. The car was completed by the previous owner about five years ago there are around 4000 miles since the restoration. It has never been in inclement weather and has been garaged since the restoration.

The body received significant attention with a complete restoration of the Floor Pan, including having the entire underside of the pan coated with Rhino Lining. Additionally all of the fenders are also Rhino Lined to ensure they remain solid. The windows were all replaced including One piece glass door windows. The rear turn signals were shaved and billet style running boards were added. The body was topped off by hand polished Spies Hecker Volcano Orange paint.

The interior was treated to a Grant Rally steering wheel, hand sewn two-tone carpet, seats, and door panels. To eliminate one of the common complaints about bugs, the heater/defroster system was upgraded and an electric windshield washer system was added.

The engine and transaxle is a 1776 cc engine with a custom painted fan shroud and engine tin. The 1776 was upgraded with an Engle 110 camshaft, Mahle 82 mm pistons and liners, headers and a jet coated exhaust. The transmission is a high ratio Free Way Flyer.

The suspension was then addressed with front disc brakes and a 3-inch narrowed, adjustable front axle beam. The wheels are Empi custom with 145/15 in the front and 205/15 in the rear.

This Bug is being sold "as is" and is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to terminate the eBay listing early should the Bug sell locally prior to reaching the end of the auction. Any shipping or other transportation requirements are the resposibility of the buyer. I will assist with shipping on my end.

Volkswagen Golf voted 2013 European Car of the Year

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf just went on sale in Europe, but it is already off to a promising start. Announced as the Geneva Motor Show kicked off, the newest Golf was named European Car of the Year for 2013 in dominating style over cars like the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 twins, Volvo V40, Ford B-Max and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
According to Automotive News Europe, the MkVII Golf won handily over its rivals with a total of 414 votes. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 received 202 votes finishing in a distant second, while the Volvo V40 (189 votes), Ford B-Max (148 votes) and Mercedes-Benz A-Class (138 votes) round out the top five. The new Golf marks the third Volkswagen product to receive the prestigious award with previous cars including the MkIII Golf and the most recent iteration of the Polo.

Volkswagen Multivan Alltrack Concept takes the luxury van life off road

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Volkswagen dug into its commercial vehicle fleet for its latest Geneva Motor Show concept, blending the versatile body of the T5 MultiVan with a luxuriously appointed interior, 4Motion all-wheel drive and a thrifty diesel powertrain.
That 177-horsepower diesel engine routes its power to the AWD system through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Based on that alone, we'd expect the Multivan Alltrack's behind-the-wheel experience to be somewhat familiar. That all-wheel-drive system and van body contribute to the 21-degree approach and 15-degree departure angles of this soft-roading MultiVan.
What wouldn't be familiar is its exquisite cabin. Volkswagen opted for a nautical theme for the concept's interior, featuring grey-blue leather seats from Poltrona Frau and a floor finished in real wood. The dark wood trim can also be found throughout the interior, running below the windows and on the dash.

Get ready to Camino-ize your fourth-generation VW Jetta with this kit

Tue, 05 Aug 2014

Inexpensive, small pickup trucks used to be everywhere in the US, whether they were from Japanese brands like Datsun or Toyota, the truly weird Subaru Brat or even from Europe with the Volkswagen Caddy based on the Golf. These days that market has completely disappeared, but if you're willing to pick up some tools to build your own, there's a company out there bringing the Caddy back as a kit for the Jetta.
Mark Smith knows a thing about building a vehicle at home. He has over two decades in the DIY-car business as a co-founder of Local Motors and the company that became Factory Five Racing. His latest venture is Smyth Performance and already offers a mid-engine, VW-based kit called the G3F. His new product, though, started as a fluke. "I just wanted a shop truck," said Smith to Autoblog. He already had a Ford F-450 but found that he was driving around with the bed empty most of the time. The result was a pickup truck based on the fourth-generation Jetta that he dubbed the Ute.
The kit retails for $3,500 and ships in three, big boxes, and it's designed to be built and painted in a weekend. Buyers get fiberglass exterior panels, a fiberglass rear window surround, sliding rear window, an aluminum reinforced bed with a tubular steel subframe, taillights, a fully functional steel tailgate, and other parts. In the end, you get a vehicle with a six-foot bed and a payload of around 700-750 pounds. The Ute maintains all of the factory suspension, fuel tank and emissions equipment and requires just a few cuts in the body to complete. "We did a modern Caddy," admits Smith.
