1977 Volkswagen Bus Automatic on 2040-cars
Cloquet, Minnesota, United States
|
Up for bids, our 1977 VW Camper Bus. We have owned this Bus for 20 years to the month. We purchased it in Colorado in August of 1994. We brought it to our home
in Cloquet, Minnesota where it has remained all these years. It never was used as a daily driver, only for recreation and camping trips. The original fuel injection on it was problematic for us so we had it converted to carburation for reliability and serviceability. The body is not rusty at all and the paint scheme with the lower body painted black was like that when we got it 20 years ago. There are no bubbles or rust showing through that area so I would assume it was just done as a cosmetic thing rather than a rust repair job. The interior is very nice with one small tear area on the drivers seat side of cushion. Mechanically the Bus runs and drives great. I have no idea what the actual mileage is on the Bus. It shows 42,000 but I would imagine it is 142,000. When we bought it, it showed 22,396 on the odometer statement from Colorado Bill of Sale. (indicating in excess of mechanical limits) I'm sure the motor was changed or rebuilt at some point during it's mileage history but I have no records of that. The motor seems to run strong and quiet. Please be aware that we have used the Bus very little over the years and most of the time it is in storage. It might be used all of four weeks a year. In the past five years it has hardly been used at all. This is why we are selling our old Bus. I guess it's time to pass on the torch so to speak. Good luck with your bids and we are hoping for a loving family for our Bus. |

VW Golf R pre-order sells out in less than 11 hours
Fri, Jan 9 2015Volkswagen fans had to be pretty quick if they wanted to ensure their pre-order for one of the first 500 units of the 2015 Golf R to enter the US. The German brand opened the books online at at 12:01 AM EST, and according to company spokesperson Leigh Anne Sessions speaking to Autoblog, by around 10:30 AM EST all of them were snapped up. VW's pre-order page currently shows these vehicles as no longer available, and the company confirms the news on Twitter, as well. There's still a chance to get an early Golf R by signing up for the waiting list and hoping one of the 500 orders falls through. VW Customer Care will contact people if there's an opening. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. This entire allotment of the Golf R comes in Lapiz Blue Metallic paint with VW's adaptive damper system, navigation, a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox and more. To further sweeten the pot, the company is also giving these folks a watch, key chain and certificate with their vehicle's VIN. The 500 models were priced at $39,090, plus $820 destination and delivery, but only $500 was required to reserve one online. The amount was refundable if a person backed out.
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
