1967 Tin Top Walk Through EZ Camper. Originally delivered to San Fransisco on February 24th 1967. I chose to do a preservation restoration on this van as it was in such good condition and I wanted to keep it as original as possible. This van spent its life in California and southern Oregon where I purchased it. Rebuilt 1600cc motor, rebuilt freeway flyer transmission. New front floor corners. Solid dry Californian survivor. Interior is in excellent condition and mostly original. Previous owner owned a VW shop so needless to say this van has been maintained, cared for and loved. Every thing works. Runs and drives like a new van.... I have the decoded M-Code plate information listed below.

Motor/Transmission- Very low miles on rebuilt 1600cc motor, rebuilt carb, new battery, alternator, vac hoses, fuel lines, throttle cable. Engine bay is extremely clean. Aluminum finned oil pan, new heater boxes (heater works very good) new heater cables, voltage regulator, empi exhaust/muffler. Rebuilt free way flyer transmission, rebuilt reduction boxes.This van has just had a complete tune up.

Paint/Body- One repaint over OG paint (pearl white L-87). Super strait body, perfect door and body gaps, no accidents or collisions. Sand blasted and painted bumpers and rims.Super solid and dry bus. Brand new front floor corners professionally installed. Solid dog legs, rear corners, gutters, cargo doors, front floors, cargo floor, jack points, inner rockers are perfect. No rust on undercarriage. Minimal rust on left and right lower rockers only. I inspected the nose closely after I pulled the kick panels out. Nose is solid with no rust or any collisions.

Interior- Brand new front seat upholstery, Dash is perfect and uncut, brand new kick and door panels cut out of 1/8 inch birch wood and painted to the factory color, texture and finish. These panels are much better than the cheap fiber board door panels being sold on the samba and won't warp over time.... Most of the interior is completely original and in excellent condition as seen in the pics. The original wood headliner is absolutely perfect. The rear camping seat upholstery is in excellent condition. There is a tear on the lower back seat which I covered up with a nice blanket to keep it from getting worst. The original and hard to find spice rack/cupboard is in excellent condition. The interior paint is in great condition. I have the rare storm windows  which install were the screens go. These are always missing and great to have if your camping or driving in colder climates. All electrical works perfect. All lights, dash lights, camp lights, fuel gauge ect, ect work as they should. No electrical issues what so ever. Meticulously maintained by previous owner.

Other- New dual circuit master cylinder, new brake soft lines, new brakes, wheel cylinders, shoes, brand new left and right tie rod ends, alignment, newer tires, original jack and lug wrench, rare double pang storm windows, original m code plate and California state ID badge. Repacked wheel bearings all the way around. 1967 is the first year of 12 volt electrical system.

Rare survivor Californian tin top walk through survivor. Many hours went into the preservation of the bus. This was a labor of love. Every thing is in excellent working. Every dash, dome, camping light ect works perfect. This camper is ready for cross country driving and or camping/traveling adventurers. All mechanical issues have been addressed down to the smallest detail.. Excellent investment quality VW Camper bus. I tried to list every thing but know I left out some things. Feel free to call any time with questions.

VW recalls 1.1M Jetta, Beetle models in US, China over suspension fears

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Volkswagen is recalling about 1.1 million vehicles in China and North America in a newly announced campaign affecting the rear suspensions on some models. For the US, the action covers about 442,265 vehicles, including 400,602 examples of its 2011-2013 Jetta and 41,663 units of the 2012-2013 Beetle and Beetle Convertible. According to Reuters, the recall affects a further 126,000 vehicles in Canada and about 581,090 in China, including related market-specific models like the Sagitar.
The problem can occur if the affected models have a collision to the rear or the side-rear of the vehicle. It's then possible for the trailing arms on the torsion-beam rear suspension to be damaged. If the harm isn't noticed, then the part could fracture while driving. Obviously, a broken rear suspension is going to have an adverse effect on handling.
To fix things, VW dealers will inspect the trailing arms on the models, and they will all receive a sheetmetal part that will make a distinctive sound if broken in the future. If already damaged, the entire torsion beam will be replaced. Obviously, this work will be done at no charge to owners.

Volkswagen Multivan Alltrack Concept takes the luxury van life off road

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Volkswagen dug into its commercial vehicle fleet for its latest Geneva Motor Show concept, blending the versatile body of the T5 MultiVan with a luxuriously appointed interior, 4Motion all-wheel drive and a thrifty diesel powertrain.
That 177-horsepower diesel engine routes its power to the AWD system through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Based on that alone, we'd expect the Multivan Alltrack's behind-the-wheel experience to be somewhat familiar. That all-wheel-drive system and van body contribute to the 21-degree approach and 15-degree departure angles of this soft-roading MultiVan.
What wouldn't be familiar is its exquisite cabin. Volkswagen opted for a nautical theme for the concept's interior, featuring grey-blue leather seats from Poltrona Frau and a floor finished in real wood. The dark wood trim can also be found throughout the interior, running below the windows and on the dash.

VW readying two-row CUV concept for Detroit

Wed, Dec 10 2014

We're likely getting yet another glimpse of Volkswagen's future crossover at the upcoming 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, in January. According to Automotive News, two anonymous sources within the automaker indicate a CUV concept will be shown there. The concept is said to be a five-passenger preview of the brand's future seven-seat model. Previous versions of the crossover have carried the name CrossBlue (pictured above), but there was no indication whether or not that would continue. The original three-row concept debuted at the 2013 auto show in Detroit, and VW followed it up with the CrossBlue Coupe Concept in Shanghai later that year. In early 2014, the company announced the CUV would go into production sometime in 2016, along with plans to invest $7 billion in North America over the next five years. During the summer, the automaker made things even more official when it declared plans to invest $900 million to build a 538,000-square-foot expansion into its Chattanooga, TN, factory to assemble the new model. Production of the crossover was slated to begin by the end of 2016, at the time. According to Automotive News, even more changes in VW's CUV lineup are on the way. The Tiguan is reportedly getting an update next year that could be joined by coupe and long-wheelbase variants, as well.
