Fairhope, Alabama, United States

This car comes with a bill of sale.  Alabama does not issue titles on cars this old, so there is on title.  I have an Alabama registration and bill of sale that will allow you to get a title in your state.

Health issues force sale of my Baja project.  This is a solid bug body, only rust issue at bottom of rear side window on drivers side, see pic.  This was a complete car before I started on it and I still have all the parts that were removed.  All glass is there, no chips or cracks.  One window has some frost about 1" from edge.  All gauges are there.  VW seats, steering column, good fenders, engine cover, and hood.  Included is the VW gas tank.  I also purchased and have included new floor pans.  You can also have the front and rear pieces cut off to make the Baja body.  All this is included so you can sell to recover some of your cost.

Also included in this auction is my sand rail.  This buggy was used as a pre-runner for our Baja racing.  The frame has 10 broken welds and is beyond repair. The front beam has some rust issues.  Otherwise this is a good running buggy.  It has a bus tranny with a good clutch.  The engine has only 10 hours on a complete rebuild.  This is a strong running engine with a mild cam and two barrel carb.  Everything else is stock 1600cc in the engine.  Rear trailing arms are stronger than stock.  Five point racing harness.  New 20 gallon foam filled fuel cell.  Drum brakes on the front and disc brakes on the rear.

You will have most everything to put these two together to make one fine Baja Bug.

Call with questions 251-422-3474.  Also call if you are interested is just some parts that you see.  Everything is for sale together or just parts.  I may end this auction early if sold locally.  Call if you want to discuss help with shipping otherwise packing and shipping is at buyers expense.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over

Mon, 03 Sep 2012


After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.

VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.

Volkswagen drops "GTi" lawsuit against Suzuki

Tue, 02 Oct 2012

Way back in 2004, Volkswagen took umbrage with Suzuki being granted permission to use the nameplate "SWIFT GTi" for a performance variant of its small-car offering (2012 equivalent seen here). Now, eight years and surely some very steep legal bills later, VW has finally dropped its claim against Suzuki.
The General Court of the European Union stated, back in March of this year, that Suzuki's GTi registration could not be confused with VW's "Golf GTI." Volkswagen had appealed that ruling, though has now reportedly called off the dogs. In fact, Germany's Die Welt reports that the appeal has been dead for several weeks now.
This news comes amongst continued arbitration acrimony between the two automakers, all revolving around VW's forced divestiture of nearly 20-percent stake it purchased in Suzuki some two years ago.
