Here is your chance to own a true honest clean Original 1969 Vw Deluxe transporter . This Bus 100% unrestored completely Original !! It was purchased from and elderly gentleman in the dry desert area of Washington state . From the story I got with the bus is the previous owner, owned for many years he had gotten to the age where he could drive any longer and parked the bus in 2003 , I bought and it was in running and driving condition . But after things sit for any period of time , Its always best to go thru and check things out . Since the bus was in such amazing condition anyway . I decided to go thru the braking system , replacing wheel cyl.,master ,rubber lines and brakes shoes . I had the motor removed and new seals installed , with new clutch , exhaust , battery , new fuel lines . Basically what is would take to make a daily driver .
The motor is a 1600cc single port , which appears to have been rebuild or was a replacement motor at some point over the buses lifetime . The transmission had new fluids , and shifts smoothly as is should . All the electrical system works perfect . even the horn .
Body condition on this bus is amazing . NO Rust in rockers , inner wheel wells . the is a little bit under the battery but very minor . The only other traces of rust are some surface rust on the front floors . Driver side front floor has a couple little thin spots and a few pin holes , But still a very solid bus for its age .
The paint is amazing 100% Original Paint !! No accidents , No bodywork , No welding on the body at all ever ! Its all factory and for a 44 year old vehicle is truly awesome !!
The interior is also completely Original , With the exception of the front seats being redone in the original style upholstery . This Bus Comes with the new roof rack and Brand new 195/75/14 tires .
The Bus has character sporting its factory paint , yes it has a few rock chips, scratches , a little door ding or two . But it shines like the day it left the factory 44 years ago . The paint underneath this bus is even good . The underside is so dry and nice , Its almost unbelievable !!
I have to say it again , This is an all original unrestored bus .. And many will say its only Original Once .. and as classic cars are being restored everyday . Its much harder to find something in this condition ..

VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.
Volkswagen reveals Beetle GSR, R-Line convertible and two special GTIs
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Volkswagen has chosen to really expand its performance-tuned portfolio at this year's Chicago Auto Show, bringing along a couple of new Beetles destined for model year 2014, as well as a pair of freshened GTI packages that you'll be able to buy almost right away.
The first, and splashiest of the Chicago goodies on the VW stand has got to be the 2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR. Don't lose your temper, Acura Integra geeks; in this case, GSR stands for "Gelb Schwarzer Renner" or "Yellow Black Racer," and harkens back to a sport-tuned classic Beetle from the 1970s. For the 2014 iteration, the GSR gets a 210-horsepower version of VW's 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder. That engine is enough to push the Beetle to 60 miles per hour in 6.6 seconds, and up to a top speed of 130 mph.
Of course, you'll have long-since noticed the shockingly yellow-and-black livery before you stumble across the Turbo badge on the rear deck. The GSR gets 19-inch alloy wheels, 235-section tires and a tea-tray rear spoiler, but it's the paint and graphics package that will decide if this is your (lemony) cup of tea. Things don't get any subtler inside the car, either, as VW has carried the colorway through to the interior, as well. Only 3,500 Beetle GSRs will be produced, with just more than half of those going to the US - call your dealer today, Wiz Khalifa.
Fully Charged rolls into season 3 with VW XL1 and electric Land Rover
Sat, Jan 18 2014It's been some time since last we visited with British actor and electric car proponent Robert Llewellyn and his web-based video series, Fully Charged. The show, now sponsored by Ecotricity, has started rolling out its third season and now has available two episodes featuring a pair of truly unique – and diametrically opposed – vehicles. The first installment starts with some interesting numbers involving the host's Nissan Leaf and its energy consumption over the past 36,000 miles, but soon moves on to the ultra-aero, ultra-expensive Volkswagen XL1. Now, if you've already seen the footage from our own XL1 first drive review, there's not a lot new here except, perhaps, more enthusiasm and a better listen of the two-cylinder diesel kicking in. Still, it's a great reminder of a truly unique vehicle and we enjoyed the segment. The second episode features an electrified Land Rover Defender 110. This is a vehicle you'd more likely see on an African safari than at the local mall. It's not a home-built conversion either, but rather, something the company has put together "for the boffins to create the ideas and see if they work." Boasting a 50-mile range, it's certainly something we like to take on an off-road adventure. Llewellyn is given the chance to do just that, and though the course is somewhat milder than what we might attempt, it does feature a stretch of river and some rough, rutted tracks. You can watch both episodes by scrolling below let us know which vehicle you'd prefer in the comments. This writer is going with the four-wheel-drive. This content is hosted by a third party.
