For sale is a partially restored 68 Bug convertible. Have two sets of new fenders, new bumpers, new running boards, several trim pieces. No motor, just the transmission, was going to buy a turn key motor and never got around to it. The interior was redone in white and one of the new side rails were welded in, have the other its just not installed. The floor pans were replaced also, great project car if you have the money and time, I have neither. have the convertible top frame also, will need the proper windshield, I ended up with the wrong one. check it out, has a very low reserve. No shipping on this item, pickup only.
On Jan-01-14 at 07:57:24 PST, seller added the following information: I wanted to add that the right rear quarter has been removed and a new one cut to fit from a standard beetle quarter panel that is included. The floor pans are direct replacements though discolored from not being painting, they are solid. There are no inner door panels, though all glass is there except for the windshield which I mentioned. As you can see in the pictures there are several items, seals, trim or body parts, running boards, fenders, its the just way I bought it over a year ago. The previous owner was having it restored and the project sat for a long time and some of the parts went missing including the motor. I am not a bug expert so I cant say 100% what it would need to complete, but the basics are there and when fully restored these little cars sell for a decent price. The parts are cheap and plentiful to acquire. good luck |

Volkswagen Golf R wagon promises to be fast and functional [w/poll]
Tue, 25 Mar 2014Volkswagen's array of performance-oriented Golfs keeps getting bigger and bigger. What started with the GTI has since grown to include the diesel GTD, the hybrid GTE and the most powerful Golf R. But the additions haven't all come down to powertain. There's been cabrio versions of the GTI and Golf R as well, but before all is said and done, there will be one more bodystyle to join the lineup.
That, according to these latest spy shots, would be the Golf R Variant. For those unfamiliar, Variant is what Volkswagen calls the wagon version of the Golf (in some markets, anyway). It offers the Golf Variant with a variety of engines, but as the spy shots reveal, it is now working on bringing the Golf Variant and the Golf R together into one high-powered, long-roofed model.
The VW Golf R Variant would in all likelihood pack the same 2.0-liter turbo four as the hatchback, splitting 290 horsepower between all four wheels. Only in the wagon, it would offer that extra bit of utility. Of course there's no guarantee that Volkswagen would offer the Golf R Variant in the North American market, but considering that the Golf R hatchback will soon be joined in American showrooms by the Golf SpotWagen (as it's tipped to be called here) in place for the Jetta wagon, the possibility is definitely there.
UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.
