Answering a few questions it has a 1997 Subaru Impreza dual overhead cam engine that has a timing belt which was replaced before the install. You can install ac in the van for about 1000 to 1500 personally I never needed ac on the east coast. The stove, sink, and the fridge all work but it has no propane in it right now. I daily drive the van everyday to work accruing 50 miles and it has not had any issues. I am moving in January and would like to sell it before that, if it doesn't sell then I am keeping it in storage until I get back. Make me a reasonable offer and it is yours!! Here is a 1982 originally an air cooled Volkswagen Vanagon camper with a 2.0L Subaru liquid cooled engine!! The car was my father's and he passed away in 2012, the van was his baby. I got the van in 2013 and began the Subaru conversion beginning this year. It is using a Kennedy Engineering frame, Go Westy stainless steel coolant lines, Kennedy Engineering trans adapter plate with stock Vanagon transmission. The engine is a low mileage (40k) Subaru JDM 150Hp 2.0L with plenty of power!! The interior was refinished in 2010 and is in excellent condition, the front seats are mint, the dash is in great condition, front carpet is faded, and has a built in rear DVD player with dedicated screen. Has a nice CD player with high quality Kicker speakers. The van has spent its entire life in the south so has no typical Vanagon rust. It does have a little surface rust here and there, I have not painted the vehicle so the prospective owner can see the original body. The Subaru engine also has the capability to add AC and power steering if you need it!! This truly is an awesome van and I would definitely keep it if it wasn't for the U.S. Army. We are constantly moving and it is not practical for our family right now. If you are anywhere between North Carolina and Vermont on the east coast then I might be able to deliver the vehicle to you. (Going to Vermont in January) If you decide to have me deliver it then I will require a deposit up front!! I have described the vehicle as good as I can but if you have any further questions you can call me at 216-215-0518 Also it has a front tow bar system which allows you to tow the Vanagon!! New parts are as following Fuel Tank Walbro 255 fuel pump Fuel level sender Battery Bosch hi torque starter oil pressure and water temp gauge Stock exhaust Catalytic converter 2 oxygen sensors All coolant lines Radiator Overflow tanks Clutch Flywheel Throwout bearing Clutch Slave cylinder Air filter Fuel filters MAF adapter Kennedy Engineering exhaust manifold I am sure there are more parts that I am forgetting...

Audi to keep hiring workers despite VW diesel scandal

Tue, Oct 27 2015

Even while Volkswagen contemplates delaying or canceling projects to pay for costs related to the massive diesel emissions scandal, its stablemate Audi is hiring, according to Reuters. Audi certainly isn't immune to the diesel scandal, with around 2.1 million affected vehicles worldwide including 13,000-14,000 in the US, but the scandal so far isn't affecting staffing levels. "We are sticking with plans for strategic growth and are continuing to hire new employees as planned," Audi board member for human resources Thomas Sigi said in a German newspaper, according to Reuters. Sigi even suggested paying a "respectable" bonus to workers next year. Audi has some big projects on the horizon, too. Among them, the company intends to launch a production version of the E-Tron Quattro Concept in 2018, and for performance fans a new TT RS appears to be on the way. The new A4 should be a big contributor to global volume when its worldwide rollout is complete. Rather than allowing the diesel scandal to hurt all of its divisions, the VW Group instead wants to concentrate the fallout (and costs) on the VW brand, according to Reuters. Those expenses could be huge. Volkswagen is budgeting around $7.3 billion just to repair the 11 million emissions-cheating vehicles. Worldwide, maximum estimates put the whole mess at $87 billion.

Top Gear drag races VW Golf R against McLaren 675LT and Porsche 911

Thu, Apr 7 2016

Top Gear's latest quarter-mile drag race in the collects three very different performance vehicles: the 296-horsepower Volkswagen Golf R, 424-hp Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, and 666-hp McLaren 675LT. While each of these cars sit near the top of their segment, they each come from totally different rungs of the sports car price ladder. Spoiler alert, the Golf R doesn't win. But the final results illustrate the diminishing returns of price and performance. For example, the McLaren is only about a second quicker than the Porsche to 60 miles per hour, but the 675LT costs over 2.5 times more that the GTS. Related Video:

VW sales increase 0.6% in September despite diesel scandal

Thu, Oct 1 2015

Volkswagen was spared in the month of September from posting a sales disaster, but in reality, the impending doom and gloom is likely just postponed until October. According to VW, it delivered 26,141 vehicles to its dealerships last month, which represents a 0.6-percent gain over the same period a year ago. While up, that meager increase represents the smallest uptick of all major brands in the United States, which is currently in the middle of the best vehicular sales year in the last decade. Audi, the German automaker's mainstream luxury unit, saw a bigger gain at 16.2 percent with 17,340 total units sold, thanks in large part to the popularity of its crossover models. These numbers can't totally be taken at face value, however. In 2014, Labor Day weekend was counted as part of August's sales figures; in 2015, that traditional car-buying holiday fell early in September and is therefore partly responsible for the huge increases from all brands doing business in the United States. Remember, the diesel emissions scandal didn't hit the news until September 18, which means VW was free to sell its 2.0-liter TDI engine for the majority of the month. In other words, October is going to be the real indicator of sales reckoning as it will be the first full month that the brand can't sell its popular diesel models and the first since its emissions scandal broke. Still, TDI sales were down last month. VW reports a total of 3,060 sales of vehicles equipped with TDI engines, which represents 11.7 percent of total volume. That's nearly cut in half from the TDI's year-to-date volume percentage of 20.4 percent. "We would like to thank dealers and customers for the support of the Volkswagen brand," said Mark McNabb, chief operating officer for Volkswagen of America in a statement. "Volkswagen will continue to work diligently to regain trust and confidence in our brand." It's not yet clear exactly when VW will issue a fix to make its 2.0-liter TDI engine emissions legal, or when the EPA will recertify those models for sale. Once those two things happen, dealers will again be free to sell vehicles equipped with the powertrain, but even then it remains to be seen how consumers react when the sales ban is lifted.
