For sale is a manual 1984 Volkswagen Westfalia Vanagon with less than 1000 miles on a rebuilt engine. Van was a west coast vehicle until 1997 and then came to North Carolina. As it's never suffered harsh winters the body is in great shape!

THIS VEHICLE IS A ROAD TRIP WAITING TO HAPPEN!

We purchased the vehicle approximately 3 years ago with a dream to drive it cross country as well as use it as a daily driver. We specifically looked for a vehicle with body in great shape as anyone who knows these Vanagons is aware that a little visible rust usually means a lot of hidden rust. We were lucky to find this beauty which is basically rust free, and living in his original body and mostly all original paint.

As life happens we were unable to take the time drive cross country. But our Vanagon was taken care of with that intention. We kept him healthy and happy and road worthy.

The details:

BODY & PAINT:

rust free and original body

mostly original paint in light cream/yellow option (you sometimes see orange or brown vans of this age, but the light color of ours reflects the sun and keeps you cooler while camping!)

RECENTLY PAINTED the pop top so it's a fresh bright white

hinges- the support arms for pop top when raised- have been reinforced

NEW SEALS around entire pop top

NEW CANOPY is the high end hemp option from Go Westy (costs nearly $500!)

INTERIOR:

set up for twin 12V batteries- so you have power when there is no hookup! The engine charges both batteries! (currently equipped with only the main battery)

swivel captain chairs

all curtains including front privacy drape and rear bug screen included (the screen is great for sleeping at night and getting a breeze!)

stove functional and clean

refrigerator runs on a/c power

all gauges work except tachometer

cd/radio not hooked up but included

DRIVETRAIN:

1.90L Engine

REBUILT SUMMER OF 2011... LESS THAN 1000 miles on rebuilt engine!

NEW seals

NEW gaskets

NEW rings

NEW pushrods, lifters

HEADS COMPLETELY REBUILT, NEW valves, NEW springs, NEW belts, NEW hoses

NEW fuel pump and fuel filter

Engine was professionally tuned by a local Westy dealer, throttle body replaced

Transmission- flywheel refaced, NEW pressure plate, NEW CLUTCH, NEW throw out bearing, and transmission fluid changed

THIS VAN IS ROADWORTHY TODAY! IT IS FULLY TITLED IN NORTH CAROLINA, REGISTERED AND RECENTLY PASSED ALL REQUIRED INSPECTIONS!

Here's a summary of what we would do if we were going to keep this van:

1) Air-conditioning: It was inoperable when we bought it and still is. Honestly we didn't need it while driving. The breeze from having the windows down was enough for us- and as these vans are loud, having the windows down made no difference to noise level. Plus while in camp you need a separate a/c setup anyway. The regular vehicle air conditioning is not for use while camping in these vans.

2) Cooling pipes: They are still the original pipes and we intended to replace them eventually.

Remember, this is a vehicle that is almost 30 years old. We have stated to the best of our knowledge all of the work done on this vehicle- its strengths and weaknesses. Anyone who knows about these VW camper vans knows they are ALWAYS an ongoing project. Things are bound to come up that need to be replaced or upgraded. That's part of the joy of joining the VW camper family! :) But this vehicle is ready to use right now! If we don't sell it we are taking it camping ourselves!

YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.

Autoblog Podcast #327:

Former chairman Piech opposing his nieces' VW board nominations

Fri, May 1 2015

Someone needs to option the rights to the Ferdinand Piech story for an HBO series, because it perfectly mixes the corporate intrigue of Mad Men with the family drama of The Sopranos. Plus there are some cool cars. In the latest episode, Piech isn't happy with Volkswagen's appointment of two of his nieces – Julia Kuhn-Piech and Dr. Louise Kiesling Â– to replace he and his wife on the automaker's supervisory board. The recently ousted chairman could try to stop them. According to German publication Bild, Piech thinks his two relatives lack the necessary automotive experience to serve on the board. Therefore, he suggests one-time Ford Premier Automotive Group boss Wolfgang Reitzle and former Siemens manager Brigitte Ederer to take the seats. However, a VW spokesperson told Automotive News Europe that there were no objections to the women's appointment, except for this story from Germany. Piech's nieces are already officially appointed to the VW supervisory board, and it's approved by the Braunschweig Local Court in Germany. His only real option to challenge them would be to file a lawsuit, according to Automotive News Europe. While the new appointees don't have their uncle's decades of history in the auto industry, they do have business experience. Dr. Kiesling has a degree in vehicle design from the Royal College of Art in London and is the managing director of an Austrian textile maker. Kuhn-Piech works in real estate sits on the supervisory board of German truck maker Man.
