1977 VW BUS CAMPMOBILE WESTFALIA

You are looking at a perfect example of a 1977 Westfalia Campmobile in outstanding condition... Like stepping back in time!

I am the second owner of this true barn find from California which I purchased in 2006.

This bus is and has always been 100% road worthy.  I have done all maintenance myself and have had ZERO issues mechanically.  I would not hesitate to drive this bus anywhere in the world tomorrow!

It runs great and starts every time in all weather conditions. 

Idles perfectly, great compression in all cylinders, upgraded electronic ignition. Newer matching fuel pump (still has all Fuel Injection working 100%), newer coil. newer battery. Very good fuel economy - mid 20's mpg. Odometer shows 20,300 miles, however, that is actually 120,300.

Transmission shifts very clean in all gears, never pops out. Front disk brakes, rear drum all in good shape.  She stops straight on a dime.
Suspension is also great, drives perfectly straight and smooth with just one finger on the wheel.  She wears top rated Hankook tires with only a few thousand miles on them. Includes matching spare as well. I also had the gas tank removed in 2007.. it was sandblasted and treated with lifetime material so there will never be "rust in the gas" issue that many older VW's experience.  The fuel injection system runs 100% smooth and gets low to mid 20 mpg consistently.

Exterior looks awesome, the bus was repainted in 2006 with original Chrome yellow VW paint, and also had a new canvas installed at the same time. All original glass in great condition.

Accident free bus. just a few tiny spots of surface rust near original window rubber (only the front windshield rubber has been replaced)... which can be very easily repaired (if you wanted to make this a perfect showroom type bus).  This bus would win nearly any show entered in as is.  Might be the finest looking and running bus east of the Mississippi :)

All electrical working.

This is an unmolested bus which has not been restored.  what you see is what you get... NO hidden problems.

Also includes:

- Original carpet front and back. 

- Original plaid upholstery (I do have a roll of original plaid which will be included in sale if ever needed) 

- Original like new rear hatch mosquito net. 

- Original child's cot or hammock for front cabin. 

- Dual Battery set-up (power is drawn from second battery while camping)

- Small solar panel for trickle charging while camping.

- 400 watt DC to AC inverter with 2 outlets.

- Tachometer, Oil temperature and Dakota Digital Cylinder head temperature gauges.

I have done my best to describe the vehicle... Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request additional photos or videos.
I am sure the winning bidder will be 100% satisfied with this classic!  GOOD LUCK!!!

I am located near BOSTON, Massachusetts. 02066. all INTERNATIONAL BUYERS WELCOME - I CAN ASSIST WITH SHIPPING TO ANYWHERE WORLDWIDE at buyers expense.

This is a nearly 40 year old vehicle and is sold in AS IS condition with no warranties expressed or implied.

Matthias Muller officially named VW Group CEO

Fri, Sep 25 2015

While the vast number of rumors made it seem like a foregone conclusion, Porsche boss Matthias Muller has officially been named Volkswagen Group CEO to replace the recently resigned Martin Winterkorn. His contract runs through the end of February 2020, and until a replacement is found, Muller also gets to hang onto his old job as chairman of Porsche. At the same time, the VW Group Supervisory Board is announcing a massive structural reorganization across the entire company, with the new management model in place by the beginning of 2016. Contrary to previous rumors, Michael Horn remains as President and CEO of VW Group of America. The board wants a greater emphasis on brands and regions going forward, and the scale of this shift can be seen in the US. On November 1, VW Group business in the US, Mexico, and Canada is being combined under the leadership of current Skoda chairman Winfried Vahland. However contrary to previous rumors, Michael Horn remains as President and CEO of VW Group of America. Other brands are also seeing some significant changes mechanically. Porsche, Bentley, and Bugatti now fall under the Group's "sportscar and mid-engine toolkit." This means that the brands will start sharing standardized technical parts. A Chief Technical Officer across all of the company's brands will also start working toward future innovations. The new brand-centric view means the end of a group-wide production department. "Going forward, the brands and regions will also have greater independence with regard to production. So it follows that they should also hold the responsibility for these activities," Berthold Huber, interim Chairman of the Supervisory Board, said in the announcement. In a statement with the press release about his promotion, Muller promised to turn the company around after such an international crisis. He said: "My most urgent task is to win back trust for the Volkswagen Group – by leaving no stone unturned and with maximum transparency, as well as drawing the right conclusions from the current situation. Under my leadership, Volkswagen will do everything it can to develop and implement the most stringent compliance and governance standards in our industry." Matthias Muller appointed CEO of the Volkswagen Group Muller remains Chairman of Porsche AG until a successor has been found Matthias Muller (62) has been appointed CEO of Volkswagen AG with immediate effect.

VW adding particulate filters to gas engines

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.
