1966 Deluxe Vw Bus 13 Window Camper Project Beautiful on 2040-cars
Tucson, Arizona, United States
Check out this beautiful rare 13 window Deluxe Bus!!
This is a fresh top of the line Glausurit paint respray! It is an original 13 window Bus. It is an original Titian Red Bus, one of the Best colors on a Deluxe, hands down! It is an original Arizona Bus with almost no rust at all!! All of the rocker panels, floors, wheel wells, etc are original. The only panel that has been replaced is the battery tray. Floors had spots and were patched. The Bus is very straight. The deluxe only trim is in excellent shape. Engine is a 1600. It starts right up and runs well. Clutch is excellent. Brakes squeek but work well. Front end is tight but needs a replacement tie rod end. Transmission needs repair, it is a recent rebuild, but has a bad 3rd gear. Wheels and bumpers are original and were repainted with Glausurit in original silver white. Wheels were sand blasted and epoxy primered, painted black with the correct original overspray into the backside like original! All electrical works other than the clock and license plate light (which is missing, but power is there). Optima battery! I have a freshly restored steering wheel from Koch's steering wheels that I haven't installed yet. It is beautiful! I made an last order of parts for this Bus and they didn't send me all of the parts that I had ordered. The Bus is being sold as is, front door glass will need seals and installed. This is a very rare 13 window. These are very popular right now as many people are making the $100+ 21 windows from them. A roof kit is $5000. It was my plan to build a 21 from this Bus, but I don't have time as I just started a new job in a different city and must move quickly! The Bus is listed with a low reserve. Please ask any questions. The Bus is available for viewing in downtown Tucson. Payment MUST be made within 3 days of auctions end. Bus must be picked up within one week. Please take advantage of the low reserve and BID!!! You won't find another like it! Thanks, Christopher |

North American production of foreign marques to jump in 2014
Sun, 23 Dec 2012Wards Auto has released its North American Light Vehicle Production Forecast for 2014, and the report predicts foreign manufacturers will increase production on the continent some 3.9 percent by 2014. If accurate, that should see 123,000 additional cars, trucks and vans produced in North America, swelling the total number of units produced both by domestic and foreign manufacturers to 16.9 million light vehicles from a projected 15.6 million in 2013. Much of the increase can be attributed to the fact that Toyota intends to produce another car at its Blue Springs, MS plant as well as a new Lexus model at its Georgetown, KY facility in a year's time.
Likewise, Volkswagen intends to move production of a currently imported model to its plant in Puebla, Mexico. Daimler, Honda, Nissan and Mazda also plan to build additional models on North American soil for the first time. Around two-thirds of the new North American manufacturing will take place in Mexico, helping the country soak up a full 20 percent of the content's automotive production for the first time. You can head over to the Wards Auto site for the full report.
Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
Audi CVT suit settlement given green light, 64,000 cars covered
Mon, 07 Oct 2013Audi drivers, listen up. If you bought or leased a 2002-06 model-year A4 or A6 with a factory-installed Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that failed, you may be entitled to reimbursement under a recently settled class-action lawsuit with corporate parent Volkswagen.
According to Automotive News, the settlement covers about 64,000 vehicles and alleges that "manufacturing and design problems caused the transmissions to fail and left owners stuck with repair costs." While the suit also argues Audi was aware of these issues (going so far as to hide that knowledge from consumers), the settlement stops short of acknowledging any wrongdoing by the German automaker.
Audi drivers are eligible for a cash reimbursement if their CVT repairs occurred within 10 years or 100,000 miles of the date they bought or leased the vehicle before June 19, 2013. To be eligible for compensation, drivers must submit a claim form (found here) with supporting documents by November 18.
