1980 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia. Solid California Project. No Reserve!! on 2040-cars

1980 Volkswagen Westfalia, full camper package. Solid van, spent most of it's life in California, then moved to Wisconsin before I brought it to Ohio. This is the first year for the Vanagon, since it replaced the Bus. 

I have too many Westies at this point to tackle this project. The van has no rot or major rust anywhere. The camper is 100% complete. It even has the rear mosquito net in new condition! I was going to part this out for the rest of my Westies, but it's way too solid and it would be a waste to do so. 

The entire camper package is there, and it's in great shape. This camper features sleeping for 4, stove, sink, liquid propane refrigerator, lots of storage, electrical outlets, swivel front seats, etc. The camper top has NO holes in it! The top bunk is nearly mint. Everything works as it should. The camper top even has a newer seal around it. The interior could use a thorough cleaning. The driver seat is well worn.

The motor will need a new head, piston, and jug. Everything else on it is fine. The engine is partially dismantled, and you can see where the damage is. Everything needed for the motor is included, other than the required new parts. Also, I have a turn-key 2.0 fuel injected motor that is rebuilt, with new heads. It is available for $1,500 if you would like it. It has everything mounted, including the computer. Just lift it in and bolt it up. 

The exterior looks as if it sat and baked in the California sun. There is surface rust throughout the exterior, but to rot or holes anywhere. The underneath is pretty much spotless.

See the link to 49 photos below. I do have a "buy it now" price in mind, just ask. Please consider that this thing is easily worth at least a few grand just in parts, so I think my "buy it now" figure is reasonable. Come and get it!!

VW Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.

2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

The Golf VI's Last Hurrah Is Pure Niche
This was in the heart of the ultra-chic Côte d'Azur during winter. The car to be tested was the not-for-North America 2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet. Prevailing weather conditions here this time of year are bizarrely pleasant, as though a dome of Swarovski crystal has been placed over the entire region to protect it from any real winter spoiling things. And the zippy Golf R Cabriolet is a sports car designed precisely for this area's preciously narrow winding streets, as well as for the lofty budgets of its property owners.
So then why was it snowing like we were in northern Michigan? The weather front hit from the north like a swift kick to the Jordaches. The roof was open on this Candy White Golf R Cabrio and I, as is my wont, was determined through thick or thin to keep it retracted. It had been raining and sometimes sleeting like the End of Days, but I kept the lid cracked because the 261-horsepower cabrio - the most powerful convertible ever built by Volkswagen - was snipping along nicely as the bad weather blew over my head and wetted only the rear headrests.
