1976 Sleek Restored Black Bus - Custom

This restored 1976 VW Bus comes complete with modern upgrades while maintaining the classic heart and soul of the original make. This VW Bus comes freshly restored with the following:  


Engine & Exterior:

This van features a fully rebuilt 1600CC dual carb engine and a new 4-speed manual transmission as of 2011.  The rebuilt engine has less than 7,500 miles!  For stable rides and sway-free cruising a sway bar has been installed underneath.  The windows slide open and close with a latch.  To complete the stylish exterior are 15” BR rims and fitted underneath with custom underglow with multiple lighting sequences and color selections.  


Interior & Seating:

The front and rear headliner are in great condition.  The interior panels have been fitted with sleek black vinyl.  Charcoal black carpet has been layed throughout the van and secured with button fastens. The front dash has been refurbished and does have a small crack next to the stereo deck but it is barely noticeable.  Two custom Black/White Sewfine seats in the front offer a comfortable ride as well as a great look.  The front passenger seat base has been replaced with a camper base enabling it to rotate 180 degrees opening up new possibilities for the rear common area.  The rear common area features a custom made bench behind the drivers seat which folds open to create a bed for those long road trips and life at the beach. The bench is not mounted so it can be taken out if you choose to do so.


Sound System:

Up front I have chosen a Retro RS-Model One deck that matches the dash perfectly.  The lower shelves of the bench house an Alpine PDX-5(4 channel mono powered) amplifier  and an enclosed 250 watt subwoofer.  The van comes equipped with 4 speakers total - 2 enclosed box speakers in the rear and 2 more located on the passenger doors.  All four speakers and the sub are made by Focal audio.  This sound system is sure to blow you away!  Just in case it gets too loud for others on the road, sound dampening strips have been placed throughout the van.


From California to Florida, there’s nothing quite like cruising in this home away from home VW Bus.  With cruising speeds easily in the 60’s, you’ll have no problem hitting the open road in style.  The exterior lighting and sleek black body are sure to turn heads everywhere you roll!


If you would like to see more pictures please let me know through email and I will send them as soon as possible.

Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.

Automakers face reality of EVs' cost — to jobs, and their bottom line

Tue, Sep 12 2017

Related: We obsessively covered the Frankfurt Motor Show — here's our complete coverage FRANKFURT, Germany — European car bosses gathering for the Frankfurt auto show are beginning to address the realities of mass vehicle electrification, and its consequences for jobs and profit, their minds focused by government pledges to outlaw the combustion engine. As the latest such announcement by China added momentum to a push for zero-emissions motoring, Daimler, Volkswagen and PSA Group gave details about their electric programs that could give policymakers some pause. Planned electric Mercedes models will initially be just half as profitable as conventional alternatives, Daimler warned — forcing the group to find savings by outsourcing more component manufacturing, which may in turn threaten German jobs. "In-house production is almost irrelevant to the consumer," Daimler boss Dieter Zetsche told reporters on the eve of the Frankfurt Motor Show, in the midst of a German election campaign in which automotive jobs have loomed large. The company set a target of saving 4 billion euros ($4.8 billion) by 2025 to help fund the cost of its electric cars. "Daimler is the first company to state explicitly how much electric vehicles are going to hurt margins," said Bernstein analyst Max Warburton. "It was brave to go first — but of course it won't be the last." Volkswagen, for its part, said it was seeking new global supplier contracts to source 50 billion euros ($60 billion) of electric car content including batteries, which are not yet manufactured competitively in Europe. "A company like Volkswagen must lead, not follow," Chief Executive Matthias Mueller told reporters. VW diesel emissions-cheating exposed by U.S. regulators in 2015 triggered global public outrage, dozens more investigations into test-rigging by the wider industry and a push by some lawmakers to ban diesel and eventually all engines. TIGHTENING NOOSE Tesla shares jumped nearly 6 percent on Monday after a Chinese minister said it was a question of when, not if, Beijing bans fossil-fuel cars, tightening the noose around the combustion engine. France and Britain have promised its outright abolition by 2040. But PSA, the maker of Peugeots and Citroens, said it was concerned about the risks if consumers were left behind in the rush, and a new generation of battery cars does not sell.
