UP FOR AUCTION IS MY 1966 VOLKSWAGEN VOLKS ROD. UNLIKE OTHER VOLK RODS THIS WAS NOT MADE FROM A KIT. IT WAS ALL HAND FABRICATED THE BODY WAS CHOPPED & STRETCHED, THEN MOUNTED ON A CUSTOM TUBE CHASSIS NOT A BUG PAN. THE CHASSIS USES CIRCA 1935 FORD WHEELS & TIRES, FORD STYLE FRONT SUSPENSION THAT EXTENDS INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, KNEE ACTION SHOCKS, AND LARGE VENTED DRUM BRAKES. THE REAR SUSPENSION IS FROM A VOLKSWAGEN, AS IS THE 1600 SINGLE PORT ENGINE. THE BODY IS RAW STEEL AND EASY TO KEEP THAT WAY ( I JUST WD40 IT WITH A SCOTCH BRITE TWICE A YEAR ). FORD "MODEL A" LIGHTS, A PUSH OUT WINDSHIELD, AND A FISH TAIL HEADER FINISH THE OUTSIDE. THE INTERIOR IS FINISHED IN RED VINYL AND CARPET ALONG WITH METAL MILITARY SEATS, A BLACK RHINO LINING, AND HAND PAINTED "OLD SKOOL" PINSTRIPING ON DASH/ SHIFT LEVER/ REAR DECK AND WHEELS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A FAMILY THAT HAD IT SHIPPED FROM CALIFORNIA MOSTLY COMPLETE. I COMPLETED THE TRANSFORMATION AND USED IT VERY LITTLE APPROXIMATELY 1500 MILES SINCE BUILD WAS COMPLETED. ITS VIRTUALLY UNKNOWN AND NEW TO THE EAST COAST. IT RUNS & DRIVES VERY WELL CONSIDERING THE 1935 STYLE RUNNING GEAR. INSPECTIONS ARE WELCOMED AND ENCOURAGED AT ANY TIME. AUCTION MAY END AT ANYTIME. RESERVE IS LOW COMPARED TO BUILD. 100% SORTED. RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT TONY AT 914-453-6191 WITH ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.
