1972 Volkswagen Westphalia "Camp Mobile"
This is a one owner vehicle my father bought the vehicle back in 1972 in Lasalle, Quebec from LaSalle Volkswagen. After my parents moved to the States they later divorced and my father moved to San Diego California where he resided until his passing 2 years ago. I personally drove the 6 day drive back to Michigan with no problems at all. All items are original on the bus as my dad had it back when he owned it. Ive done nothing to it other than an oil change. The bus starts right up on the first crank. I would rate the paint on the car a 7 there are chips from driving and my father would put touch a paint on the chips. as for bondo there is "None" My dad babied his hippy bus and as explained it is still original paint. No bubbling blisters and no waves on the body. I'm sure some of you folks are going to ask what would need to be done.. Personally if you are looking to go camping and having fun with the family than nothing. For those of you who want a concourse vehicle i would repaint it, put a new canvas top on it and new rubber mat on the driver side that goes to the passenger side. As for the engine there are no leaks coming from underneath. and the transmission shifts great and smooth with amazing pick up from being 42 years old. I also forgot to mention there is a gas heater in back i would recommend to get it rebuilt something about gas and heat and me in the car scared the pants out of me but the heater is there intact. I also forgot to mention there was a dent on the passenger side from my wife backing out the car from the garage. Its nothing major but i have to be honest. Also the tires are new and new being 3 years old but no dry rot of that nature.If im forgetting anything I apologize just shoot me a question and I will answer it the best I can. I also can help in any way when it comes to shipping the vehicle. Thank you for looking and happy bidding |

Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers
Sun, Mar 29 2015As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.
