NEVADA CLASSIC CAR DEALER # 40339,  VW VIN # 2242133151

I bought this very clean and solid, and great running 1974 VW bus from a very cool VW -loving couple here in Las Vegas.. it was originally a So. Calif. bus and still has only a little more than 55,000 original miles on it , according to them, but I want to say True Mileage Unknown just in case.  They had the motor and tranny rebuilt just recently and the 1800 pancake motor now sports Dual Solex carbs, so it really gets up and gets going, once you get going !   

The bus runs great, always starts right up first time and is virtually almost rust-free ...  The body looks to have the original 40 year old German paint that is a little dull, but I love the patina just the way it is... but you can fix it up Surfer or Hippie style or turn it into a camper .. or many businesses wrap these cool bay window vans with graphics to get attention for your brand or company !    All I know I love this van and will drive it until a lucky buyer makes me the right offer.   We have a car museum here also, so come by and take a look ! 

I have also ordered a new Retro-AM/FM radio for it with MP3 jack... and also new foam and original style black fabric for the front seats and these will be included with the sale...   here is some information on the van I recieved from the last owner.. but before that: 

WATCH THE VIDEO OF THIS COOL '74 VW Bus Here: 


I told you about the new Dual Solex Carbs ... but also: Electronic Ignition added, Valves Adjusted, New Distributor, Spark Plug Wires and Plugs, New Fuel lines & Filters, New Brakes, New Tires from Discount Tire with Warranty, New Axles, Rebuilt Tranny shifts great, New Motor Seals (still leaks just a little oil -- hey is a VW bus ! lol) , Engine Tuned, Kill Switch, New plastic door panels by Wagenworks, all lights and turn signals work and so does parking brake. Nice black fabric on back seat with just a couple little tears, but I like the Mexican blanket look also.. 

Please note, I am a boutique classic car dealer in Nevada, so any Nevada residents who purchase this car to register in Nevada will need to pay a 8.1 % Nevada sales tax and a $99 documentation fee... but I have taken this into consideration in the great-value pricing of this car.

Come to Vegas to party and drive home an incredible vehicle that is quite a lot of class, fun and quality for the money ! Best, Steve in Las Vegas cell 213 500 8619

Ford Mustang Mach-E fails Sweden's moose test

Wed, Sep 29 2021

The infamous moose test has claimed another casualty. This time it's the Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD Long Range, which was tested in an electric four-way alongside the Tesla Model Y, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Skoda Enyaq iV (an electric utility vehicle closely related to the Volkswagen ID.4 that is sold in the United States). According to the Swedish testers at Teknikens Varld, Ford's electric car not only failed to hit the speed necessary for a passing grade, it didn't perform well at slower speeds, either. To pass the outlet's moose test, a car has to complete a rapid left-right-straight S-shaped pattern marked by cones at a speed of at least 72 km/h (44.7 miles per hour). The test is designed to mimic the type of avoidance maneuver a driver would have to take in order to avoid hitting something that wandered into the road, which in Sweden may be a moose but could just as easily be a deer or some other member of the animal kingdom elsewhere in the world, or possibly a child or car backing into the motorway. Not only is the maneuver very aggressive, it's also performed with weights belted into each seat and more weight added to the cargo area to hit the vehicle's maximum allowable carrying capacity. The Mustang Mach-E only managed to complete the moose test at 68 km/h (42.3 mph), well below the passing-grade threshold. Even at much lower speeds, Teknikens Varld says the Mach-E (which boasts the highest carrying capacity and was therefore loaded with more weight than the rest of the vehicles tested in this quartet) is "too soft in the chassis" and suffers from "too slow steering." Proving that it is indeed possible to pass the test, the Hyundai and Skoda completed the maneuver at the 44.7-mph figure required for a passing grade and the Tesla did it at 46.6 mph, albeit with less weight in the cargo area. It's not clear whether other versions of the Mustang Mach-E would pass the test. It's also unknown if Ford will make any changes to its chassis tuning or electronic stability control software, as some other automakers have done after a poor performance from Teknikens Varld, to improve its performance in the moose test.

UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.

Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
