Ferndale, Michigan, United States

For sale is my 1974 Volkswagen Super Beetle with Auto Stick Trans.
Beetle is decent shape but will need to go to a home that will have the time/money to fix her up. The car as-is runs and will get you from point A to B. Lights/turn signals/wipers all work. Vehicle has very little rust, floor pans are firmly in tact, but there are signs of rust that could probably be addressed. Headliner does have a few rips in it. I do have carpet for the vehicle but it is not in tact. Windows have no cracks/chips, all gaskets for windows show very little sign of dry rot. speedometer/odometer just stopped working a few weeks back when I was attempting to figure out reverse light issue. gas gauge works. Mileage is not correct on the odometer. Engine is in great shape but will need a couple things soon: -New mounts -Vacuum leak(sputters) What I've done so far in the past few months: -Re-built the entire clutch -Tune up(timed/plugs/wires) -new inner/outer tie rods -oil has been maintained -re-built control valve for the auto stick -new brass contact from the stick to control valve -adjusted front/rear brakes -alignment -new battery -new headlamps -new turn signal bulbs/new brake lights Local pick up, Ferndale, MI(Detroit) or delivery is solely responsible to the buyer, payment is expected within 3 days of sale unless other arrangements were made with me. car is sold as-is. all questions will be answered immediately. |

Former Porsche CEO Wiedeking indicted over VW takeover bid
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Do you recall the failed efforts by Porsche to take over Volkswagen? According to a Bloomberg report, former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above) and ex-CFO Holger Haerter have finally been charged with market manipulation over the exercising of options as part of the German sportscar manufacturer's ill-fated attempt to take over the much larger VW. That failed bid eventually resulted in the reverse coming true - VW swallowing Porsche.
The charges leveled by Stuttgart prosecutors come after a three-year investigation centered around allegations that Porsche execs made a concerted effort to increase the company's share in VW to 75 percent in preparation for a hostile takeover. Porsche had previously told its investors on at least five occasions that it had no intention to buy VW.
Portions of the investigation have subsided, according to prosecutors, citing an inability to prove certain improprieties with a "necessary degree of certainty." The number of charges is down to 5 from a previous 14 counts regarding "information-based market manipulation."
Volkswagen's De Silva says next Scirocco will be 'completely different'
Tue, 02 Apr 2013From our perspective, the reborn Volkswagen Scirocco is a handsome (if squat) little thing. Yet design-wise, it's always struck us as uncomfortably close to the Golf three-door hatchback with which it shares its basic underpinnings. That aesthetic kinship may be part of the reason why Volkswagen has steadfastly refused to import the Scirocco to North America, seeing as how the Golf doesn't regularly set the company's sales charts alight, and it's less expensive.
But that visual similarity might be about to change, says Walter De Silva, who recently told Australia's Car Advice that, "It must be completely different... we don't want to repeat the bodystyle of the Scirocco, we want to change that." Further, the Volkswagen Group's design boss says that the next-generation car isn't terribly far along in development yet - "at the moment, it's only a studio [project]... it's not defined." It's probably just as well, as the new seventh-generation Golf arguably borrows some of its design from the current Scirocco anyway.
So we should expect a much bolder, more differentiated design, right? Well, yes, no and maybe. Back in September, De Silva himself was quoted as saying that the era of flamboyant styling has passed, and that future VW designs will be simpler to better reflect the times and preserve resale value. So... how different could it be?
