You are looking at a 1973 VW Bus Westfalia Camper addition. This is the tin top version that doesn't have a pop up top. I have heard it referred to as the poor mans camper. It does have the sink, icebox, the folding tables, the bench seat that folds out into a bed. It also comes with the kiddie cot that goes above the drivers area. This van has been somewhat of a daily driver for me. It runs great with no complaints at all. Really fun to drive. It is a 4 speed manual and the clutch works fine, transmission shifts fine. It does have the typical sloppy shifter but I've had no trouble with it at all. The fuel gauge doesn't work. I haven't gotten around to fixing that one. Speedometer and odometer work fine. I absolutely love this thing, but have to sell only to make room for a new addition. We are also listing our 72 Beetle as well. The garage is full and it has to go. It has all new brakes, some new brake hoses, new battery, nice tread on the tires. Carb was rebuilt recently as well. I also just replaced the windshield and seal. It had that typical haze around the edges and the seal was starting to rot. The doors and windows all work great. I also recently replaced the starter.

There is some rust here and there, but as you can see in the pictures, it isn't terminal. The floorboards and underside are solid. I have some repair panels that go with it too. There is a panel to replace the spot at the pass side rear wheel and a new battery tray. I have been driving this to work on a regular basis and it's been great. The driver side seat belt shoulder strap is shot. The rest of them work fine.

It has a 1600 VW upright motor in it. Parts are easy to find and get to. It runs perfect and very cool. I had heard that running an upright in the back of a bus can lead to overheating. This bus has been driven in the hottest summer months and even up the mountain with no trouble at all. It actually runs cooler than the beetle I have. I assure you, no worries at all taking this van anywhere.

Feel free to call or email me with any questions or to request more pictures.

I have set this up with NO RESERVE. A bit of a risk, but it needs to go.

Thanks for your consideration.

Tanner Foust drifts Rockstar Passat around US Cycling TT course

Fri, May 22 2015

The USA Cycling Time Trials take place on Saturday in Chattanooga, TN. That's also where Volkswagen has its US headquarters. So in honor of the event, VW decided to have a little fun involving Tanner Foust and a 900-horsepower Rockstar Drift car. That's a 900-hp Passat, by the way. Pro cyclist Tim Johnson rides along with Foust, showing him the intricacies of the cycling TT course. But of course, with a 900-hp drift car at his disposal, Foust makes use of roundabouts and turnaround points to do what he does best. We won't spoil the rest of the short, minute-and-fifteen-second video posted above. But if you like smoky drifts from super-modified midsize sedans, this clip is for you.

Volkswagen rolls out all-new Polo R WRC

Sat, Jan 17 2015

Volkswagen may have ruled out producing a road-going Polo more potent than the new GTI, but on the rally stage, the Polo R WRC has proven absolutely dominant. Introduced to the World Rally Championship in 2013, the Polo R won ten out of the baker's dozen rallies in its debut season, and all but one last year to win both titles two years running. That's quite an act to follow, and the task falls to the machine you see here. The new second-generation Polo R WRC was just revealed at Autostadt in Wolfsburg. The rally machine has been substantially reworked for 2015, with a new livery, new bodywork and new oily bits. In fact, Volkswagen says it has revised three quarters of the components, and while it has not yet detailed the "many new ideas [implemented] under the bonnet," it has identified the hydraulic gearbox as "the biggest innovation." Further details are still to come, but this is our first look at the new machine with which Sebastien Ogier, Jari-Matti Latvala and Andreas Mikkelsen – who finished last year's championship in first, second and third, respectively Â– will tackle this year's championship, starting with the Rally Monte Carlo on January 22-25. FIA World Rally Championship (WRC) New technology, new design: presenting the second generation Polo R WRC - World premiere of the 318-hp Polo R WRC in Wolfsburg - Member of the Board, Dr. Heinz-Jakob Neusser, launches title defence - WRC kicks off with the iconic Rally Monte Carlo from 22Â–25 January Wolfsburg (15 January 2015). In top form, both technically and visually: Volkswagen presented the second generation of the Polo R WRC in Autostadt, Wolfsburg. The works team from Wolfsburg has its sights set firmly on another successful defence of its titles in the FIA World Rally Championship (WRC) with a new car and a new look. Volkswagen completed a clean sweep of all the World Championship titles when the Polo R WRC made its debut in 2013, before repeating this impressive feat last season. Continuity is the key to the driving line-up for 2015: double world champions Sebastien Ogier/Julien Ingrassia (F/F) and team-mates Jari-Matti Latvala/Miikka Anttila (FIN/FIN) and Andreas Mikkelsen/Ola Floene (N/N) will roll down the starting ramp and head onto the first special stage of the year for Volkswagen at the legendary Rally Monte Carlo on 22 January. "The new Polo R WRC has undergone intense further development, both on the inside and the outside," said Dr.
