1970 Volkswagen Westfalia! Low Reserve!
Bus is in great condition and ready for camping. Since I have owned the bus, I have done the following:
New exterior paint, (original Pearl White color)
New pop top canvas by Go Westy
New front seat covers by TMI
New 215/70/14 tires with a mildly aggressive tread for off road driving
New wheel cylinders on all four wheels, new shoes, and resurfaced drums
New rubber on both front doors, rear hatch, and engine lid
New rear window, new window rubber on rear window and front windshield. (front windshield does have a small star in the lower passenger side, which has been professionally sealed)
New front, rear, and side lenses, headlight rings, hub caps
New laminate floor in camper area. Front and rear floors are excellent.
Misc. new odd and ends, seals, and parts.
Motor is a 1600 single port, that runs very strong. Just had it tuned and a compression test showed 145, 140, 140, 140 at each of the four cylinders! You can drive this bus anywhere!
Original blue plates still on the bus. it is currently registered till 2014 and I have clear pink slip in hand.
Bus has original Westfalia z-bed and jump seat, however, they have been recovered in black vinyl (before I owned it). I also has the original ice box and sink, which works. it is missing the wardrobe closet and headbanger cabinet.
Bus has an Alpine CD player with detachable face plate. Nothing special, but at least it is something to listen to on the long road trips.
Bus has both the upper fold out cot and the front childs cot for over the front seats. Both have been recovered in a blue denim (before I owned the bus). They are in great shape and very sturdy.
Bus has aftermarket curtains (installed before I owned the bus). They function well, but have faded from sun exposure. I also have a rear bug screen that allows you to keep the rear hatch open for ventilation.
If you want a great looking bus and to have a lot of fun and adventures, this is the bus for you. Thanks for looking.
Buyer is responsible for shipping and a $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of winning the bus.

VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
Volkswagen Cross Up! aimed at rugged lifestyle folks, complete with plastic cladding
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If you thought there was nothing wrong with the Volkswagen Up! that a little body cladding wouldn't fix, you're in luck. VW has officially pulled the wraps off the production version of the Cross Up!, and its wheel arches and rocker panels are full of the black plastic cladding you've been yearning for.
In addition to the "particularly rugged design and tough, lifestyle qualities" that the cladding exudes, VeeDub has also seen fit to put its Cross Up! on a new set of 16-inch alloy wheels clad in 185/50-series tires. Inside, there are new kick plates to go along with a dash pad that can be had in red, black or silver.
All that cladding must equal additional off-road readiness, right? Well, sure... just so long as you're fine with the same 75-horsepower three-cylinder engine that all other Up! models also feature, along with a five-speed manual transmission sending power to the front wheels, again, just like all other Up! models. The Cross Up! appears to have a taller ride height than other models, but we haven't been able to find out what - if any - changes have been made.
VW, Fiat, Mercedes could be CNG winners in Europe
Fri, Dec 12 2014Fiat ads in the US try to play up the exotic, sexy side of Italian culture. On the home front in Italy, however, passenger-vehicle sales are marked by something less edgy and quite a bit more practical: the growth of compressed-natural-gas (CNG) powered car sales. In fact, Italy is leading a group of European countries where CNG sales are on the upswing and may be benefiting automakers like VW, Fiat and Mercedes-Benz, according to Automotive News. VW started sales of its Golf TGI natural-gas vehicle this year – the company's fourth in Europe – while Mercedes-Benz added a natural-gas B-class model. Fiat accounts for about 50 percent of CNG vehicles sold on the continent. In all, Europe's CNG sales through September totaled about 67,000, up seven percent from a year earlier, Automotive News Europe says, citing research firm JATO Dynamics. And the number of CNG vehicles on Europe's roads could jump tenfold within the next decade. The draw is a combination of lower refueling prices and a CNG drivetrain that typically emits less CO2 than diesel vehicles. As for Italy, about five percent of new-vehicle sales are CNG. To put that into perspective, hybrids, battery-electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids and diesels combined to account for about 4.2 percent of US vehicle sales last year.
