1966 Vw Bug Beetle Type 1 Sunroof on 2040-cars
Paramount, California, United States
|
Mostly Original 1966 VW Bug. California car. No rust through. Original F series engine case rebuilt with less than 10,000 miles. Runs and drives excellent. Recent battery, tires, brakes, ball joints, axle boots, always properly serviced. Recently replaced the four stationary window rubbers. Most everything works, heater, dome light, horn etc. Hi low relay has been acting up so currently stuck on low. Rims are 1965 model but I have the 1966 rims also. Transmission is quiet and shifts smooth. This car is a dependable daily driver for 300 plus miles per week. It can be enjoyed as is or is a fine candidate for a restoration. Headliner and door panels are original and torn or sagging. Dash is excellent with original paint. Hood and sunroof cover appear to have been repainted many years ago and could use attention. Very solid throughout. Doors open and close flawless without sag. No rust in floor pans and they are straight. More pictures may be available upon request. Or will provide a link to photobucket prior to auction end.
Paypal deposit preferred. Balance to be paid in cash, wire transfer, US postal money orders or any reasonable non scam method. You may pay full amount via paypal with additional portion of fees. I am able to assist with shipping. I am located next door to CFR Line in Paramount. Will put you into contact with them and deliver to them. |

Prop-driven VW Beetle hopes to land in Bonneville [w/video]
Thu, 10 Jan 2013Sometimes you meet folks who, when they tell you "Hey, I have an idea," your reflex response is to stop what you're doing and tell yourself, "Get ready...." We imagine Mike Niemans is one of those folks, and the idea in question is putting a tank engine on a Type 1 Volkswagen Beetle. Not just any old tank engine - as if there were such a thing when we're talking about putting them in cars - but a 668-cubic-inch, 220-horsepower radial engine built by Continental in 1941 and procured from an M2 tank.
In the image above Nieman is using the tank clutch hub to get the motor set up, but in one of the images below you can see what really belongs back there is: a two-inch, reverse-pitch prop taken from a wind generator. He says there's enough mojo with the propeller action to get the car rolling down the runway like a jet when he gives it gas - and speaking of gas, the engine's been refitted to run on propane.
After a few safety tweaks Nieman's going to take the matte-black Beetle to Bonneville, "put the prop on, let her go and see what happens!" We can't wait to see the video of that. There are two shakedown videos below to get you ready.
VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.
