I did list this before but needed to add some pics to help
please take another look.
Up for Auction is this 1959 Karmann Ghia that I have chased for 20 years. When the guy finally wants to sell, I'm not prepared to do this car. someone please come love this car. I couldn't turn it down and had to buy it.
The guy who had this was a Vo-tech teacher and when I tried to buy this the first time it was unmolested. he decided to take it into school and let the students do the work on the car. (stop rolling your eyes). lol they replaced lower quarters and did some body work and painted it this color. its original color is a turquoise, like, blue. I sifted through all the parts and it looks like almost everything is here. there are some things missing I sure, like the bottom of the back seat. the parts are not in good shape. some of the trim pieces look like they have screw holes at each end. the glass is in good shape. steering wheel, seats, door panels, bumpers, are there but rough. the body has its typical area problems. the floors are there but thin and filled with small holes, (finger size not fist size), you can stand on them without falling through. It came with 2 single port engines that im not sure turn over. one looks like it is out of this car the other has the Bug type air cleaner. you can see in the photo of the parts that it has the jack and trim rings, they are in real nice condition. the hub caps are not. the grill pieces and tail lights are here and in good shape. fuel tank looks good. it came with some new rubber and a new head liner. the original head liner is here with the rods. speedo, clock, ashtray are all here. I took as many pics as I could. I did not see the radio but it could be in there somewhere. This car is in pieces and I may have missed something so if your looking or hoping something is here, you should ask and ill check.
This is a car in need of a lot of love but I have restored worse. I will answer any questions that I can but am very busy and will apologizes if I don't get back to you right away. this is why I have no time for the car.

Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively. Check out the press release below for more information.
2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring
Wed, 22 May 2013The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.
2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible gets the R-Line treatment
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Volkswagen just launched the topless Beetle Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, but we're already seeing the next step forward in the topless Bug range with this, the R-Line. We'll admit, this treatment falls under the "all show and no go" category, but it's still a pretty potent little cutie.
The R-Line starts with a standard Beetle Turbo Convertible but adds unique 19-inch aluminum wheels on lower-profile tires, LED daytime running lamps and Xenon headlamps. Naturally, there are R-Line badges aplenty both on the interior and exterior, and we must say, the whole package looks pretty darn snazzy.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but when it goes on sale later this year, the hotter convertible will join Volkswagen's growing R-Line portfolio that now includes the CC, Beetle hatch, Tiguan and Touareg.
