Up for auction is a very nice 1970 VW Bus (Westy) that has been lovingly restored and impeccably kept and serviced by Fernando at E&C in Reseda, CA.  All floorboards are clean with no rust.   There is a very reasonable reserve on this vehicle.   I wouldn't hesitate to drive this anywhere.  It starts, stops, turns exactly how it should and has all of the personality that you expect an old V-dub to have…We are going to miss this charming and reliable bus

Here are the highlights:

Newly Rebuilt Engine (w less than 2000 miles) provided by House of Ghia in Oregon - Dual Carbs
New Oil, New Valves
New Brakes, New Exhaust, New Battery - upgraded to 12 volt, but some of the wiring needs to be updated, New Tires, New Starter
New Dove Blue Paint with Cream Two tone…better than driver quality 1 stage, very well done - by Norm's Body in SFV
Roof Rack by Pedro's Racks
New Custom made curtains with linen beach them retro fabric
New Custom Surf Board Table
Newly re-upholstered cushions with cotton batting - (better for sleeping),  ocean blue fabric that is comfortable and durable...
New Custom solid wood console behind passenger seat.  
New Beautiful Teak hardwood floors
New headliner and wood appointments

The pictures should speak for themselves.  It's a showstopper, but not a show bus, although it does attract a crowd; it has its cosmetic flaws, …serious bidders only, please feel free to call me with any questions and I will answer them honestly and completely.   I will help as much as I can with shipping   818-219-8009

VW confirms new TDI for second half of 2014 in Golf, Jetta, Passat and Beetle

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Diesel lovers rejoice. Volkswagen is bringing the latest iteration of its 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel engine - dubbed the EA288 - to the 2015 model year Golf, Jetta, Passat, Beetle (2013 model pictured above) and Beetle Convertible, and the cars will be on sale in the second half of 2014.
While it shares its moniker with the old diesel, the new engine produces 150 horsepower, a 10-hp boost, and 236 pound-feet of torque. VW promises improved fuel economy as well, but it hasn't announced specifically what amount yet. The company claims that despite the same displacement, only the bore spacing is shared with the previous version. The mill includes new features like exhaust gas recirculation, an intercooler integrated into the intake manifold and low-friction camshaft bearings.
VW Group of America has had great success with diesels in the US recently. Vee-Dub and Audi sold 105,899 diesel-equipped models in 2013. It was the first time the group ever sold over 100,000 diesels in a year, and they accounted for 24 percent of sales. Scroll down to read the full press release about the announcement.

VW reveals Outback-rivaling Golf Alltrack ahead of Paris

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack is getting a baby brother at this year's 2014 Paris Motor Show in the form of a new Golf Alltrack. Like its larger sibling, the little wagon is supposed to offer light-duty off-road driving ability combined with a more rugged look to show it off.
To give the Golf Alltrack that soft-road ability, VW is outfitting the wagon with its latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system from Haldex. The setup can decouple power from the rear-axle when not needed to save fuel. To further improve traction, the Alltrack gets VW's electronic differential lock, and the car can individually brake its inside wheel during hard cornering for better handling.
Volkswagen also wants the Alltrack to be able to visually show that it can handle getting away from the pavement, even though it starts life as a standard Golf wagon. That means jacking up the suspension an extra 0.75 inches and adding black moldings all the way around the car. There are also redesigned bumpers for the front and rear and silver underbody protection, plus new accents like anodized roof rails and silver mirror caps. The interior is essentially unchanged from the wagon, except for altered trim and Alltrack badges.

TRANSLOGIC 150: Volkswagen XL1

Mon, Feb 24 2014

How do you build the world's most fuel-efficient production car? Start with the world's most aerodynamic design. The Volkswagen XL1 is capable of 261 miles per gallon thanks to its sleek shape and ultra efficient plug-in diesel hybrid powertrain. The downside is that only 250 will be made and none will be sold stateside. That didn't stop us from taking our turn behind the wheel of this truly revolutionary ride.
