Please see full picture album here: http://imgur.com/a/YvU7B Willing to ship worldwide, and I can deliver to Port of Norfolk VA. Up for sale is our beautiful 1979 VW Westfalia Deluxe Camper! It is in excellent shape with no known issues. As you can see from the photos, it has been very well cared for, and we have done lots of work on this great bus. We have had the bus since 2008, and taken her on many road trips and camping trips across Virginia, North Carolina, and West Virginia. In the past three weeks she has gone on camping in Powhatan Co, and Lake Anna, both trips 100% trouble free. The bus is located at my house in Newport News, VA 23608.
The body was painted just before we purchased it, and is holding up great. At the same time they replaced the pop-top tent. There are no dents or dings, but just a scratch on the passenger door (see photo) and a tiny rust spot on the driver door (see photo). According to the previous owner, there was a dent that was fixed on the passenger side rear corner, but it does not show.
We have done a TON to improve the comfort and looks of the bus. Here is a list of some of the features and improvements this bus has:
-very strong running engine (42k on odometer, but probably 142 or 242) -recent tune up with new plugs and wires -recent timing job -recent valve adjustment -recent brake job- Stops fast and strait -new Kenwood (KDC-258U) CD player with aux input and USP port - new 6.5 Kenwood Excelon door speakers - new 3-way Pioneer speakers in rear cabin -new front door panels -new front kick panels -new VA state inspection (4/15) -deluxe refrigerator – Works great -new deep cycle battery for the fridge and camping gear -recently new starting battery -new front cabin rubber mat -New walkthrough mat -New Westfalia fabric front seat covers -Rear bench/mattress and upper mattress recently steam cleaned -childs cot for front cabin area (not pictured because it was in my garage) -complete original curtain set -original front privacy curtain -rear hatch mosquito screen -cabinets recently laminated. Looks perfect! -New fire extinguisher -Good tires with tons of tread -New carpet installed in rear cabin and around seats -Rare front table -Cool table mount for outside of bus. Allows the large table to be set up outside when camping -Full propane tank -Full size spare tire with tons of tread
Although this is an amazing bus, here are a few things that should be addressed at some point:
-Driver door just started not opening when interior handle is pulled. This is due to the speaker and door panel install. It is a very easy fix, but you have to take to panel off. -Scratch and rust mark previously mentioned, plus minor paint blemishes here and there. -sink leaks when using city water. It works perfectly on the tanked water. -One interior light doesn't work. It’s likely the bulb. -Front windshield seal needs replacing. I have ordered a new one, and it is included in the sale. -key is worn out a bit and locking some doors from the outside can be tricky
All in all this a great bus ready for your summer road trip. I am available most of the time to show the bus if enough notice is given. Please give me a call or shoot me a text message to set up an appointment to see her. You will not be disappointed!
Thank you,
Alex 757-773-1566

2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut
Tue, Oct 21 2014The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US – with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) – Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the Year® program. The 2015 models include the Audi A3 TDI, BMW i3, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the Year® award, an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the Year® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.
Last VW bus ever made arrives at final destination
Fri, 31 Jan 2014A Brazilian politician tried to save it, unsuccessfully, so the final Last Edition Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi was produced on December 20, 2013 and now resides in a vintage museum at Volkswagen's Commercial Vehicles HQ in Hanover, Germany.
The Volkswagen Microbus was built for 56 years, starting in September 1957. Brazil was the last country still assembling it, but new safety regulations in the country requiring airbags and ABS on all cars spelled the end. When that politician introduced a bill that would pardon only the 'Bus from a death sentence, it couldn't garner the required number of votes for passage. The South American country takes the Kombi production title, though, with 1.5 million of the 3.5 million total made in the home of Copacabana beach and the girl from Ipanema.
The VW Bus is dead. Now perhaps we can turn our attentions to the still-not-totally-settled matter of the Bulli...
Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
