Up for auction is my 1958 Double Door Panel. Built in late 57 i have had this bus for quite a while and drove it all over a few years back but know it just sits and we have other projects to tend to so sadly we must let it go. I have a clean California title in my name and it has been " NON-OPT" since 2007.I bought it from an older gentleman who bought it and let it sit in his yard. When i bought it it didn't have a motor, trans or wheels and tires and it had a complete camper kit in it........I bought it but he kept the camper kit so here is what i have done: 

 
BODY: It has a bad nose, it needs a skin as i bought it this way, missing the windshield glass it has its typical rust in front floors, driver side dog leg and inner and outer rocker. The passenger side has already had the inner and outer rocker replaced, lower cargo doors replaced and the belly pan on that side fixed.It has the wrong year engine lid, taillights and has the camper windows cut in. On a good note The rear wheel wells have never been cut, it does have its original front doors, 2 cargo doors, rear hatch and what i believe is its original front pressed bumper. It does have the large "Sekurit" logo on the door and hatch windows and has the correct door handles,headlights,front emblem, and has a single outlet "church key" rear apron. The body still needs plenty rust repair and bodywork but overall it is a good start.

INTERIOR: Or lack there of. It has its original seat, steering wheel, column, pedals and wiring. Wrong year speedo and someone has put in a factory gas gauge. But it has the correct shifter, panel divider and little bits.

ELECTRICAL: The original loom has been repaired. The headlights, taillights, turn signals, dome lights, dash lights etc all work and the charging system charges as well.

ENGINE: It is a stock 1600 single port that was rebuilt several years ago but runs great and never has given me any trouble. I have tried to use all german parts when i put this motor in. Recently rebuilt the carb, installed a new bosch starter and rebuilt dist with all new wires, plugs etc. It has a sachs clutch in it that works great as well.

TRANSMISSION: I bought it at the same time as the motor from a friend who upgraded from stock to a larger motor. So i bought his motor and trans. The trans was rebuilt as well as the reduction boxes and works fine............unknown mileage on both engine and trans.

BRAKES: Just redone. German drums turned, new shoes, hardware, seals, wheel cylinders, hoses and master cylinder with brake switch. All parts german except master and all from Wolfsburg West.

WHEELS\TIRES. Painted ghia wheels with brand new 205/75/15 radials with custom painted early style hub caps.

While this bus still rough and needs things to be totally driveable it is a good start. I will include a box of extra bits and pieces that go with it.

Note: There is no reserve or "buy it now" just a straight auction so bid to win. Feel free to ask any questions.

Autoblog Minute: VW finds CO2 'irregularities', Takata dropped by automakers, SEMA recap

Fri, Nov 6 2015

Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle, US regulators hit Takata Corporation with a substantial fine, and we head to Las Vegas for a look at tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle. US regulators issue a significant fine to Takata Corporation. And we take a peek inside tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. The VW diesel emissions scandal, first brought to light in September, gets a new wrinkle, as an internal investigation by the German automaker revealed [00:00:30] irregularities in CO2 emissions that could affect approximately 800,000 vehicles. VW estimates the issue could pose a 2-billion euro economic risk. VW claims that most of the vehicles affected have diesel engines, but industry analysts say a 1.4-liter gas engine is also affected. VW says that fuel consumption figures were set too low during the CO2 certification process. During all of this, sales of some diesel-powered Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche models [00:01:00] have been halted. Takata Corporation is back in the news in connection with its deadly airbag scandal. Federal regulators fined Takata $70 million. If the parts supplier does not comply, the fine could balloon to $200 million. Takata was also dropped this week by its biggest customer, Honda. And now, Toyota and Mazda will be following Honda's lead in dropping Takata. We're also hearing that Mitsubishi and Subaru are considering a switch in air-bag inflator suppliers. SEMA 2015 [00:01:30] came and went. We saw offerings from Mopar, like the AWD Challenger concept. Honda unveiled a Ridgeline that it will race at the Baja 1000, which gives us a hint at what future production model could look like. The celebrity presence was also felt in Vegas as it always is. Kid Rock brought a Duramax Diesel Chevy Silverado, and Acura restored and presented Ludacris with his now famous 1993 Acura Legend. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to come back on Saturday for my full recap, [00:02:00] where I'll have some added insight into Hyundai's foray into the luxury sector. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.

Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show

Mon, 05 Mar 2012

The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.

The hottest modern sports cars rendered as rally racers

Thu, Jan 14 2016

The modern-day World Rally Championship a monumental amount of fun to watch – I should know, as I recently was lucky enough to head to the UK to watch WRC Wales Rally GB – but even the most monstrous of the current WRC cars are based on fairly pedestrian European hatchbacks. Back in the heyday of rally, the Group B era in the 1980s, much hotter cars were the basis of even more incredible competition machines, for the most part. Take the exotic Ford RS200, or the Lancia Delta S4 with its twin-charged engine. And the hatchback-based Group B cars were bonkers, too. So what would some of our favorite modern cars look like if Group B had never ended? A British site named CarWow hired an artist to reimagine everything from the Rolls-Royce Wraith to the Porsche 911 as a retro-inspired rally car, and they were kind enough to let us share the results in the gallery above. The gallery features an Alfa Romeo Giulia in Martini livery, an Audi TT in classic Ur-Quattro colors, a Fiat 500 Abarth sporting massive flares and a hood blister full of auxiliary lights, a new Ford Mustang in RS200 livery, a Lancia Delta in Alitalia colors, a Porsche 911 in Rothmans livery, a Renault-Alpine in classic blue, a Rolls-Royce Wraith tribute to the Jules cologne Corniche Coupe, and a relatively modern-looking VW Touran. So far, the favorite around the office is the incredible Mercedes-Benz S-Class that is an homage to the wonderful 300 SEL 6.8 AMG "Red Pig" that essentially put AMG on the map. Check out the gallery above and see which one you like the best. Related Video:
