Please read the entire description and terms of sale before buying or asking questions.
Here we have four project cars for sale in one lot. #1: 1966 VW Bug...red. Reluctantly I'm putting this car up for sale. I was planning on building this car, but I have many projects going on right now. It's a good solid project worthy of building. The body is fairly straight and solid. Nice heater channels, nice A-pillars and even the floor pans are good. It has a some body filler coming off on the passenger rear quarter and a small amount of wrinkling on the RH side of the front apron area...which would be hidden by a fender or a pretty easy fix. I remember looking at the floors last year and they were pretty nice other than surface rust. Obviously missing parts and has NO engine. Don't know if the brakes work. No title unless it's in the car somewhere, the keys are in the ignition. (I may consider taking this car out of the lot.) #2: 1970 VW Bug...yellow. It's a good solid project worthy of building. The body is pretty straight and solid. This car is pretty complete with all seats. Has an IRS transmission still in the car. Obviously missing some parts and has NO engine. I don't know if the brakes work. I think it will need some floor pan work, but it's a west coast car, so it's simple sheet metal. It's been sitting next to a tree, so that's why it looks dirty, it has a nice body. I have a clear Oregon title and the key here with me. #3: 1974 VW Super Beetle...orange. Good solid dry body. Missing engine, trans and other parts. I don't know if the brakes work. Assume it needs floor pan work, but it's a west coast car, so it's probably just simple sheet metal. There is no title or key that I know of, unless they are in the car. #4: 1971 VW Automatic Square Back. It's a worthy project. The body is fairly straight and solid. The car is pretty complete minus the steering wheel and carburetors. It has an engine and automatic trans in it. I do not know their condition, but my dad did say that the engine would turn by hand. I don't know if the brakes work. It will need floor pan work as the floors are bad, but it's a west coast car, so it's probably just simple sheet metal. I have the keys here with me. There is no title that I know of unless it's in the car. Assume the tires will be flat on all these cars when you get there and assume you will have to load them your self. If you are having a transport truck pick them up, I can see about getting someone to air up the tires. There is a bend on the driveway that won't accommodate a full car carrier. Maybe a two or three car carrier at the most will make the corner. I'm not going to state all the obvious as these are all project cars. I took all these pics about a month ago. I can send a bill of sale for all the cars or you can use this listing for your bill of sale and handle that on your own. I prefer to sell all four together as I want to keep it simple as possible. I may keep the 66 and break them up if they are here after this listing. I have two 67 bugs here in Ca. to use for what ever parts I need to mostly complete the 66. I will sell them or part them out once the 66 is gone. Terms of sale: These cars are located on my Grandfathers property in Southern Oregon in White City / Sams Valley (Medford area). A $500. NON refundable Pay Pal deposit is due immediately after winning this listing. I'm located in Capitola Ca 95010. The full balance is due in my hand within three days of listing end. I will accept cash in person to me in Capitola Ca., US Postal money orders sent to me in Capitola Ca. or I will accept bank deposit or wire transfer (add $30.). If you need to over night the payment to get it here on time, please do so. NO other forms of payment are being accepted. My Grandfather runs a company and is very busy, he doesn't have the time to show cars. You will need to make your decision based on the pictures and information I have provided. By winning this listing you are accepting these used project vehicles in their current condition regardless of all their faults or imperfections, title or registration status etc. Buyer is responsible for setting up transporting these cars and all costs involved. The cars are sold as is where is with no warranty of any kind. Your payment is non refundable, there will be no buy backs, no refunds partial or full and these cars are non returnable.

VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
Happy 60th to the VW Karmann Ghia
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Volkswagen's product portfolio may be as extensive these days as any other carmaker in the business. But if you still think of the original Beetle as synonymous with the brand, that's probably because a) you're old and b) the Beetle was the company's only product until the mid-50s.
Sixty years ago Wilhelm Karmann (founder of the eponymous coachbuilder) was in Paris for the auto salon and met up with Luigi Segre and his team from Carrozzeria Ghia who showed him what was essentially a "Beetle in a sports coat." A month later they showed it to Volkswagen chief Heinrich Nordhoff who, setting aside his conservative tastes, approved it for production. And so the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was born, giving the German marque a second product line. It still used Beetle mechanicals and was built at the same Karmann factory in Onsabrück that was already assembling the Beetle Cabriolet.
It took another couple of years to put the design into production, but from 1955 to 1974, Volkswagen and Karmann built 362,601 coupes and 80,881 of the subsequent convertible that arrived in 1957. Today the Onsabrück factory is part of the VW Group, handling production of the Golf Cabriolet, XL1 and Porsche Boxster and Cayman, and with that original Karmann Ghia prototype as part of its factory collection.
Prop-driven VW Beetle hopes to land in Bonneville [w/video]
Thu, 10 Jan 2013Sometimes you meet folks who, when they tell you "Hey, I have an idea," your reflex response is to stop what you're doing and tell yourself, "Get ready...." We imagine Mike Niemans is one of those folks, and the idea in question is putting a tank engine on a Type 1 Volkswagen Beetle. Not just any old tank engine - as if there were such a thing when we're talking about putting them in cars - but a 668-cubic-inch, 220-horsepower radial engine built by Continental in 1941 and procured from an M2 tank.
In the image above Nieman is using the tank clutch hub to get the motor set up, but in one of the images below you can see what really belongs back there is: a two-inch, reverse-pitch prop taken from a wind generator. He says there's enough mojo with the propeller action to get the car rolling down the runway like a jet when he gives it gas - and speaking of gas, the engine's been refitted to run on propane.
After a few safety tweaks Nieman's going to take the matte-black Beetle to Bonneville, "put the prop on, let her go and see what happens!" We can't wait to see the video of that. There are two shakedown videos below to get you ready.
