1964 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible



This car is a beauty as it is finished in professionally applied PPG Ruby Red paint inside and out with a Sewfine white vinyl interior. The sedan has been converted to 8 volts for reliability and has a rebuilt 1967 transmission. All mechanical systems were new or replaced. Nothing has been done to the car to prevent changing it back to a stock 40 HP engine or 6 volts. It was fully restored body off in 2004 by D&B Restoration, a long time custom body shop here in NW Arkansas. No body filler was used. I am a retired VWoA Volkswagen dealership technician from the 1970's. No rust or dents anywhere. Always garaged since restoration. Paint is great and could use a few very minor touch ups. Here is your chance to own a classic VW at an affordable price!  I bought this VW from a local Doctor who had the car restored in 2004.

It has been completely restored. Wolfsburg West parts were used during the restoration.  Multiple Volkswagen Show 1st Place and Best of Show  winner. You can be ready for the upcoming VW Show season with only a wash and wax job! Or have a perfect daily driver. Original stock configuration except for rebuilt 1348cc engine and 1967 transaxle. It also has a period correct complete Judson Supercharger! Drives 65-70 without a problem.  A nice, tight VW that you could drive anywhere. The heater and defroster works great. The Speedometer/Trip Odometer was refurbished and reset to 0 miles.

It does need a new headliner or repaired. There is is rip above the rear window and the headliner is dirty, look at the pictures to see the problem. It was like that when I bought the car. I am including new headliner material that can be use to patch or make a new panel to repair it.

It also has a couple of minor electrical gremlins. Sometimes the horn will work and the backup light doesn’t work every time. And I think the fog light switch might be bad. It has a Sun tachometer mounted to the lower left of the steering wheel, but needs a sending unit.

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.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.

VW budget sub-brand stuck in limbo over VW standards, costs

Sat, 01 Mar 2014

Reports in October 2012 claimed Volkswagen had begun investigating the creation of its own budget brand. This came after having failed to purchase Malaysian car company Proton or produce a meaningful partnership with Suzuki, and after watching Renault-Nissan make piles of euro on Dacia and plot the return of Datsun.
For VW, more important than the question of what to call it was how to build it profitably and in a way that didn't damage the VW brand. According to a report in Autocar, a satisfactory answer still hasn't been found. The hurdle is how to hit "'necessary' quality and safety levels" at the price points needed to make the venture worthwhile. At the time of the 2012 report, German outlet Der Spiegel said VW was trying to get prices down to 6,000 to 8,000 euro ($7,784 to $10,379 US), about two thousand to four thousand euro under the price of the VW Up and in line with the cost of a 6,790-euro Dacia Sandero in Germany.
In March 2013, VW announced, "We want to bring a true budget car to the market in China in the foreseeable future," the most concrete move in that direction after years of planning to make a decision. Working with local Chinese maker FAW, it was predicted that the vehicle in question would appear around 2016, but as of November last year a final vote on it needed to wait until this year because "We are still working on the cost side" and profit possibilities for a car that "has to be durable, it has to be precise, it has to be safe."
