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 Group names Paefgen head of classics program

Tue, 04 Oct 2011

You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
