I have owned this us for about a year. I bought it from a guy who had done the majority of the restoration, but he had to sell it because he had a baby on the way. I have always wanted a split window deluxe bus, so bought it to use as a regular driver and planned to slowly finish the interior while I used it. My tax bill this year was unexpectedly high, so sadly I am forced to give it up.  

The previous owner did all the hard work removing any rust and replacing with new sheet metal. The floors are solid, as is the undercarriage, so really all that needs to be done to have a great daily driver is to clean up the interior with an interior kit or whatever you want to do to finish it up.  The motor is strong and I believe everything works as it should. I have only driven it locally since i bought it- trips to the beach, etc.  but when I brought it home a year ago, it was an couple of hour trip on the freeway.  It performed great.  It has a CA title with an assigned California identification number. The registration just expired this past month, but I will have it up to date before the end of the auction. 

The good:
Strong motor- no leaks
Great looking, shiny paint with very few minor blemishes
Almost new Good Year brand tires ( including a spare tire) 
Virtually no rust- very clean undercarriage.
All deluxe body trim is there 
Jail bars are there
Cargo floor is newer, so no rust
Front floor looks like there was some small repair panels welded in. They used the appropriate panels, so it looks fine and is totally solid
Many new-looking seals on the pop out windows and windshield. Some of the glazing for the pop outs is looking a little old though. 

The bad:
 The speedometer cable recently broke. I will do my best to get it replaced before auction ends. Luckily it is a really simple fix on these cars.
There is a little sealant in the corner of the front windshields which indicates that it may have had a small leak at some point.  I have never driven it in the rain, but have never seen any leakage when washing the bus so I think it may not be an issue. 
Although the paint looks great, in certain light you can see some waviness where some previous rust repair had taken place ( in rocker area) I couldn't really get it to show up in any pictures. 
Seats have a couple of small wear holes. But they look fine and are very usable and firm

Please ask any questions as I may have forgotten things. Also I can take a picture if anything that needs more clarification. I will accept PayPal for a deposit, but not for balance ( unless you pay those fees). Car will need to be picked up, or you orchestrate shipping. Uship seems to be a good way to get an idea of shipping costs.

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.

VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
