This is a 1973 karmann Ghia Volkswagen that was traded in at a Dodge dealership here in North Alabama and whom we purchased it from.I will do my best to describe the car but by no means am I an expert on Volkswagens.The car was driven about 75 miles back after we purchased it with no problems other than it does not want to idle on its on when sitting still.This is not a show car and basically will need a FULL RESTORATION.It is missing the front door panels,headliner,rearview,rubber drivers door moulding,glove box button and door sill on drivers door.That is what we can see that is missing.The front seats are pretty much worn out and have seat covers on them,The back seat looks pretty good for its age.It has an aftermarket radio(works).The heat seems to work.The wipers work.The headlights,tail lights,dash lights work.I dont think fuel gauge is working.It looks to be missing a couple emblems on the body.All the glass is good.The motor runs but does not idle on its on,It also has oil residue on and around the engine,So basically you can probably count on an engine REBUILD also.The brakes seem to work good.The body overall seems to be pretty solid with very minimal rust,A few little bubble spots on lower panel and a couple small spots underneath(see pics).The bumpers look pretty good.The car is showing the mileage in the 20k range but have no way of knowing if it is 120k or 520k.We have the original owners manual,books and original invoice when purchased new in Texas.Also a box of what looks to be some door handle bezels and trim.The state of Alabama does not require Titles for this year model so it will come with tag receipt and a bill of sale only.So please make sure this is not a problem in your state.If you would like to come see the car(which I encouarge very highly) or have any questions please feel free ask and I will do my best to answer.The car is being Sold in AS IS condition and is located in North Alabama about 20 miles east of Huntsville. |

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
Volkswagen planning Up! hybrid model using XL1 powertrain
Sun, 24 Feb 2013Even though we've finally gotten a look at the production version of the 261-mile per gallon Volkswagen XL1, this aero-shaped two-seater was never intended for high-volume sales. Fortunately, it sounds like the same isn't true for the car's diesel plug-in hybrid powertrain, which, according to a report from AutoCar, could make its way under the hood of another Volkswagen model: the Up! minicar (shown above).
A potential Up! Hybrid would likely be able to return some of the same impressive fuel economy numbers as the XL1, but it would be a more realistic car with more passenger space and greater production capacity. The hand-built XL1 will use a 47-horsepower, two-cylinder TDI engine paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and the 27-hp electric motor and lithium-ion battery helps deliver an all-electric driving range of 31 miles.
One of the core pillars of the XL1's design is its lightweight construction with a 1752-pound curb weight, which makes the Up! a perfect recipient for using this powertrain since it weighs just 300 pounds more. The report says that the Up! Hybrid is still in the developmental phase, so a production version isn't expected for at least another 18 months.
