| “After a job loss and move, I haven't been able to work on my electric VW in about 5 years but it's in excellent mechanical condition. It is definitely a work in progress. Great hobby car. Still needs further wiring and some mechanical. Doors and hoods are unmounted. All hardware is included. There are literally hundreds of new parts included but not installed. Fenders need a little work. The car requires a good paint job and a small amount of body work mostly on fenders and hood. The batteries went bad years ago and were recycled so you're looking at another thousand to replace those. Completion of the car requires mechanical and electrical knowledge. It's probably THE most fulfilling project car you'll ever come across. If you're looking for something to wow your friends with, you've found it. It's all packed up and will be shipping wrapped and tarped for you to pick up or have delivered. Look at further pictures on s1253.photobucket.com/user/mferan/slideshow/” |

Began 8 years ago.Got VW for $3500,Fuchs wheels,tires for $1500,Controller,charger,motor for $2500.All new interior package was $1000.Thousands in additional parts still to be installed.My cost is over $12,000 and unknown amounts of my time.Installed the controller,motor,transmission adapter,batteries and used the VW in testing for a few months and 30 miles.Spent the next two years restoring most everything.Front brakes are converted to disk, new rear brakes,tie rods,bushings,heavyduty shocks,springs,struts,body pans,virtually everything.Needs batteries(9 8V lead acid),windshield,rear apron,paint job and a lot of your time.Doors,hood and windows not mounted.Work in progress!This is not a project for the faint of heart.Expect another half year or more of work before the VW is back on the road.Speed limited to 45-50mph and range is maximum of 40 miles.Message me with questions or email me at mferan@yahoo.com More photos at s1253.photobucket.com/user/mferan/slideshow/
