1955 Vw Volkswagon Bug Oval Window Sun Roof Three Fold Ragtop on 2040-cars

1955 VW ragtop bug. The car is not a frame off restoration. I would put it at a driver quality paint job, with a few blimishes (still very eye catching). The bug is not an original ragtop, but has a three fold top in it now. I bought it from a guy who had the work done for the top. The interior is pretty nice, with a new headliner. Great looking front mirrors. The under hood area was painted black when I got the bug and needs the cover for the back of the dash. The nose is not all rusted out, but has been crunched up in the last 59 years. The heater channel does have some small holes in it, but overhaul the floor is in decent shape. One floor board has been changed out in the past. When I got it, the car had all new seals in the windows and doors, also on the trunk and hood. I have the radio face for the car. The car has pretty new tires. All the glass is original to the car. 

I am no VW specialist by any means. If you have any questions, please ask them before bidding. I can take more pictures if needed. 

Again, this in not a show car or frame off restoration, BUT it is a very cool nice looking car that needs a little here and there. Fun to drive with the top open. 

If you have "0" feedback, please NO NOT bid until you contact me through eBay first. 

Thanks and happy bidding.

It looks like the pan and the body's vin both match.

The rear of the car has the correct "H" panel. I tried to add a picture, but was not allowed to

Volkswagen Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.

1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
