remarkably nice original old cars at good prices at Qualcomm swapmeet
Very odd "Give me your best offer, I'll look through all offers and get back to the highest bidder, without really calling this an auction" 4 door chev. Excellent condition, stored since 1970 with various owners that never did anything to improve it. This seller is likely going to be choosy about the next owners intentions, as they seem to give a damn that someone restore it. I say once you

Volkswagen Moog – All Electric Car By Klaud Wasiak

The Volkswagen Moog by designer Klaud Wasiak suggest an all new visual and audible language of zero-emission electric cars of the future. The concept, which has been inspired by electronic music, more specifically minimal techno, suggests how a future Volkswagen might sound like.





The concept also touches the historic path that electronic music took to achieve a successful result. The unique sound is produced by random placement of fractals that run underneath the vehicle. These fractals also capture noise and vibrations while driving to produce electricity that can assist onboard electronics.

Claim to Fame: Born in Germany in 1963, Herbie is/was a white Volkswagen Classic Beetle famously distinguished by two red and blue racing stripes and the number 53 painted on the hood, doors, and trunk. Capable of driving itself as well as feeling human emotions, Herbie was a zippy little Beetle with a Porsche 356 engine who gave the big boys a run for their money.

VW Scirocco SC 350 Tuned by Sportec
Cool Swiss car tuning specialist Sportec has turned its attention on the Volkswagen Scirocco with the release of a new performance package. Among other things, Sportec’s program consists of engine upgrades, a sports suspension, alloy wheels rims and other components.
For the Scirocco 2.0 TFSI 200HP, Sportec offers various performance optimizations that boost the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine’s output from 240HP to 350HP. In the most powerful version, the maximum torque takes a massive leap from 280 to 480Nm (354 lbs/ft).To achieve these figures, the Swiss tuner’s engineers modified the 2.0 TFSI’s supercharger, updated the ECU and replaced the stock exhaust system with a new free flowing one. A carbon-fiber engine cover completes the package.
To improve the Scirocco’s handling, Sportec developed a new sports suspension that brings the coupe 35 mm closer to the ground while the coupe now sits on 20-inch alloy wheels shod in 245/30 high-performance sport tires. Finally, for the interior, the Swiss tuner offers a 4-part floor mat set made of soft velour and a multi-part carbon interior with the Sportec logo.
