Amazing 1982 Rabbit Convertible.
Fully restored 1982 Volkswagen Rabbit, with extras, such as new top, new headliner and pad, tires, front and rear disc brakes, interior carpet, new fabric seats (not seat covers).
Mechanical:
It has been restored mechanically and electrically by Foreign Aid Albuquerque NM. The engine was replaced with a new Audi 2.O high compression motor costs $7500.00, along with a new transmission and clutch. New front suspension struts and new custom exhaust.
Interior:
The front and rear vinyl seats have been replaced with fabric seats (black tweed) The front and rear windows seals are new.
The car was painted shortly after the engine/transmission rebuild and at that time I replaced the rubber molding around the fenders at paint time also, with original German rubber moldings. I also replaced the from and rear windows at paint time and the rubber seals around the front and rear windows. The new canvas top went on after the paint job was complete, along with a new head-liner, and pad inside the convertible top.
The dash cluster was rebuilt and there are no cracks in the dash. I’ve replaced the factory stereo with a better new unit. The Factory A/C was disconnected due to the larger radiator installed for the motor. I replaced the original factory bumper assemblies for Euro bumpers for lighter weight. (will include the factory bumpers with the sale) Paint: It’s had one repaint and was stripped to bare metal before the factory color was re-applied with a clear coat. There is no rust on the vehicle anywhere ! Including the Dyno of the car to show its power.
The Bad: · has a few road chips (its not a garage queen) · a golf ball hit the front valance one day, slight ding · A/C disconnected · Some of the plastic seat moldings are missing.

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo
Tue, 27 Sep 2011This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.
Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.
VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential 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.
