Your bidding on a California Black Plate 1966 Volkswagen Standard Microbus

It was Originally delivered in Sea Blue and Cumulus White, it has been repainted roughly 15 years ago in a different shade of blue and white .

The bus is pretty straight and not much rust, there is a dent on the front nose and there was some filler used when it was repainted . The only rust that I can see is on the front floor where it was patched by 2nd to last owners prior to 2001, this patch was a amateur job and should be removed and done correctly. Also there are a few small isolated areas on the outside edge of rear floors close to inner rocker. Also a small area in the battery tray. Really the bus is pretty darn dry for it's age.

Last owner bought it in 2001 and did nothing but spend money on mechanics, she had a New engine installed at a cost of $ 3252.19 on July 12,2002 at mileage 29523 , she stopped driving the bus roughly 3 to 4 years back. The current mileage is 46112, so it has roughly 16500 miles on this engine . Prior to not driving it she also had New Brakes installed some years back, New steering box and one of the reduction box's rebuilt , along with the shift linkage rebuilt and a few other things . I believe new tie rods were installed and one thing past owner told me is that it needs a alignment... front tires are balding and evidence this . Trans shifts up and down through all gears like it should .

We just checked the timing, adjusted the valves, bled and adjusted the brakes. the motor fires right off and sounds good and It has clean oil in it. The bus drives decent, but could use a few small things to improve it. It has been converted to 12V and wipers are still 6V, lights work, brakelights work, horn works, right turnsignal is not working and neither are inside domelights. Even the gas gauge works ! There is a bunch of extra wires around up front from a previous old stereo system and what not.

I drove it around the corner to 711 and put $9.01 in it . You will NEED a new battery however as this one is dead

The bus currently is not registered and last tags on plate are from 2010, I believe it is Non opt, but am not 100% sure on that. If the bus is sold over seas the plate does not go with it.

Back seat is from a bay Window and center leg has been cut so it is sagging, a new headliner was installed by 2nd to last owners . This was purchased by the last owner as a father and son project. When you look at the bus thats kinda the vibe I get, some things done, but really it needs much more work thrown at it to make it a better bus .

1 key does lock both front doors and back hatch, but not the cargo door.

A pretty decent bus in todays market that you can get in and drive and fix it up as you go .

Sold as Is , as in life No guarantees ...

International Shipping is not a problem , Port of Oakland is a hour away .

I have a Flickr link with 83 pics and 3 vids in it if you want to see more

VW ID.4, the new Buick Envision and crossing Hyundai's N Line | Autoblog Podcast #668

Fri, Mar 5 2021

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd. It's a review-packed episode this week, but it kicks off with a discussion of Volvo's plans to electrify by 2030 and move their EV sales online. From there, they get into Greg's time with VW's game-changing new ID.4 electric crossover. Byron then talks about his time with two very different new vehicles: the 2021 Buick Envision luxury crossover and the 2021 Hyundai Sonata N Line, which may or may not be a sport sedan. Finally, they tackle a fascinatingly complex twitter question: What is the best 'economy' muscle car?

2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring

Wed, 22 May 2013

The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.

Volkswagen reveals Beetle GSR, R-Line convertible and two special GTIs

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Volkswagen has chosen to really expand its performance-tuned portfolio at this year's Chicago Auto Show, bringing along a couple of new Beetles destined for model year 2014, as well as a pair of freshened GTI packages that you'll be able to buy almost right away.
The first, and splashiest of the Chicago goodies on the VW stand has got to be the 2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR. Don't lose your temper, Acura Integra geeks; in this case, GSR stands for "Gelb Schwarzer Renner" or "Yellow Black Racer," and harkens back to a sport-tuned classic Beetle from the 1970s. For the 2014 iteration, the GSR gets a 210-horsepower version of VW's 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder. That engine is enough to push the Beetle to 60 miles per hour in 6.6 seconds, and up to a top speed of 130 mph.
Of course, you'll have long-since noticed the shockingly yellow-and-black livery before you stumble across the Turbo badge on the rear deck. The GSR gets 19-inch alloy wheels, 235-section tires and a tea-tray rear spoiler, but it's the paint and graphics package that will decide if this is your (lemony) cup of tea. Things don't get any subtler inside the car, either, as VW has carried the colorway through to the interior, as well. Only 3,500 Beetle GSRs will be produced, with just more than half of those going to the US - call your dealer today, Wiz Khalifa.
