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

New info on how VW, Porsche, Audi V6 TDI engine cheat works

Mon, Aug 8 2016

The German newspaper Bild am Sonntag is reporting that US investigators have found three pieces of software that work in concert to turn off the emissions control equipment in certain diesel models after a set period of time. The engine in question, the 3.0-liter TDI turbodiesel, was found in certain Volkswagen Touareg, Audi Q7, and Porsche Cayenne models – the sale of which was suspended in the US late last year. Since most emissions compliance testing takes around 20 minutes, the software in the three VW Group models shuts off the emissions control equipment after 22 minutes, a straightforward end run around the testing. Remember that the 3.0-liter TDI engines aren't included in the big buyback and recall program announced for the smaller 2.0-liter, four-cylinder TDI engines. The 3.0-liter engines will likely get their own program, but we don't know when to expect it or exactly what it will look like. Last month, California rejected a proposed fix for the larger TDI engines, and VW went back to the drawing board. Since the company is unlikely to create two fixes, one for California and one for the rest of the nation, the company can't really proceed until they figure out a solution California will accept. The EPA hasn't officially commented on the report, and we don't know how Bild am Sonntag came across the information, but we'll be closely watching what emerges after this report. Related Video:

Translogic 171: EV West Karmann Ghia Electric Conversion

Wed, Feb 25 2015

Translogic checks out EV West, one of the world leaders in electric vehicle conversions. Host Jonathon Buckley interviews EV West owner Michael Bream and test drives a converted 1969 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. What drives EV West to electrify classic cars may surprise some. "We're not doing this because we're the hardcore environmentalists or we're trying to save the earth," says Bream. "If we can't at least double your horsepower and torque, we won't touch the car." In fact, EV West brings a race-tested performance pedigree to back up those boasts. The company competed in the electric class at Pikes Peak, has run through the desert at Baja, and in general has successfully proved that battery-electric vehicles can compete at a high level.
