This bus was handed down to me after a friend of mine passed away. I have had it for almost a year and was trying to turn it into a little side project. It does not run however, I was told by the original owner that all it needs is a new starter and some electrical work to get it running. I purchased a brand new bosch starter for it and spark plugs, however I still never got around to getting it running (I have zero mechanical skills.) My main purpose for taking over this bus was to use it as a mobile photo booth for my photography business but the project has taken up too much time for us and we would prefer to get it into the hands of someone who knows what they are doing.
The inside of the bus was a disaster but for the most part, we cleaned it out and i put hardwood flooring in it. We painted it a little as well, however its not a professional interior paint job by any means. I also tinted all the windows minus the driver and passenger side windows and windshield. I also replaced most of the window seals Since I am no mechanic, I cannot say 100% what exactly it needs to start running, but the bus does have everything it needs (from engine to spark plugs) to function as long as someone can give it the TLC it needs. Other minor issues include, cracked windshield, sunroof seal leaks door hinges need cleaned and lubed tires need replaced along with lug nuts brakes (it might just need fluid) starter needs to be properly attached some lights need to be replaced minimal rust in some areas of the body (mainly on the floor around the pedals and passenger side) However, I puttied up the holes and are not visible. I was able to use this bus for a few of our events (We had to tow it) The milage only shows 56,000 miles on it. I also have both rear and front bumpers which are not attached to the bus in the photos I also have the middle and passenger seats. I removed the passenger seat to clean the area and I removed the middle seat to allow us to use it as a photo booth, however it can be put back in |

Volkswagen could build plug-in hybrids in China
Sun, Apr 6 2014When you're Europe's largest automaker and your largest global market happens to be the one most notorious for its pollution (China), some solutions just present themselves. Volkswagen may be heeding that call. During the upcoming Beijing Motor Show, the company is expected to announce plans to produce plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in China, Reuters says, citing sources within the company. Few details have emerged, though the plug-ins will likely be produced at VW's Foshan factory in South China, which currently makes the Golf and Audi A3 and has plans to eventually make 600,000 vehicles annually. News has been percolating for a while, as Oliver Schmidt, general manager engineering and environmental office for Volkswagen Group of America, said last March that the company was planning at least two plug-in hybrid lines under the VW badge (and another three with its Audi and Porsche affiliates), including possibly a Touareg and Jetta PHEV. VW said late last month that it was looking to speed up development of "particularly eco-friendly models" made by Shanghai Volkswagen as well as developing a "new, very eco-friendly vehicle" with First Automotive Works (FAW). Earlier this year, VW unveiled its Golf GTE plug-in hybrid at the Geneva Motor Show. That model has a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and an electric motor to provide 201 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The car can travel as many as 81 miles on electric power alone.
2023 New York Auto Show Live Updates: Hyundai's surprise, Nissan's super stand, '24 Wrangler
Tue, Apr 4 2023The 2023 New York International Auto Show shifts into high gear Wednesday, April 5, and our reporters are already in the city, with events unfolding even as we speak. We'll being seeing cars in person, interviewing automaker insiders and snapping photos of vehicles and all the other oddities that pop up at an event like this and we'll be giving you live updates and color from the show floor along the way. Ram, Hyundai, Subaru, Kia, VW and Jeep are all expected to show something new this week, and other automakers are known to be hosting off-site events that may produce news — expected or otherwise. Genesis has already revealed its GV80 Coupe, for example, along with the fact that it has been confirmed as a production model. And we're just getting started. Read on below for our observations from the show floor and points beyond: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

VW redoes A-ha's 'Take On Me' music video
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Volkswagen has been responsible for its fair share of witty, clever commercials. "Tiny Vader" might be the most popular, but somehow, we think this newest spot will find a big audience. VW delivers not so much a cover, but a reimagining, of 1980s Norwegian pop band A-ha's famous music video for "Take On Me."
The original opens with an animated motorcycle race, which is revealed to be part of a comic book. VW's version replaces the motorcycle with a Passat, which strikes us as an oddly sober choice when there are cars like the GTI and Beetle in VW's portfolio. But never mind that - take a look down below for the entire 46-second spot. For reference, we've also included the original music video. And if you aren't a fan of the musical stylings of A-ha, just think, VW's choice of 1980s music could have been much worse.
