This is a German import from Koblenz that has been in the USA for a while now. It has European/German specifications. The previous owner was Chip Lamb It's a 2 liter air-cooled twin Solex pdsit 32-34 motor with a 4 speed and electronic ignition (factory). The conversion to ambulance was done at the factory. It's NOT aftermarket. It's all original. It has Dual hi-lo siren horns, Blue Hella beacon and fog lights. The interior is near perfect and includes lot's of ambulance only goodies including 2 stretchers, stair chair, florescent light, gas heater, operational ceiling fan and many other little goodies. It has a mechanical step that pops out with the sliding door just like the old ones. I also have all the paperwork from Germany including manuals and some from the USA including the import paperwork.

I did a compression test on her and found that a cylinders are exactly 93lbs. of compression. I've never had a car come in on the same number for all the cylinders.

The vehicle has has one re-spray in Germany. It's nice and shiny but you can see where it's seen a little Red Cross winter action. It's runs good and I have had a lot of fun taking the family around Austin in it. There is no or minimal oil usage and it does not smoke at all. The tires are very good and it feels solid. I have personally rebuilt all the brakes with new rubber hoses, shoes, and calipers and a couple hard lines. I don't drive things with old brakes. I also installed professionally rebuilt carbs. The came back from Ace Fuel systems looking brand new. I have also replaced the factory type mechanical fuel pump and the fuel lines/filter. I have also replaced the expensive rubber hot air seal in the engine compartment. It has 7310. miles or 11763 kilometers. I put about 1000 on her just goofing around. The think runs smooth and pulls nicely. Drive it home. Drive it anywhere.

BTW, I have replaced the blue beacon on top with a NOS Hella yellow one. It's street legal now anywhere. The blue lens is included. I've also taken the heavy field type stainless operating table off and a skid plate off the bottom. They are also included.

By the way, THIS THING IS FUN!!! here is a video!

Volkswagen Golf R wagon promises to be fast and functional [w/poll]

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

Volkswagen's array of performance-oriented Golfs keeps getting bigger and bigger. What started with the GTI has since grown to include the diesel GTD, the hybrid GTE and the most powerful Golf R. But the additions haven't all come down to powertain. There's been cabrio versions of the GTI and Golf R as well, but before all is said and done, there will be one more bodystyle to join the lineup.
That, according to these latest spy shots, would be the Golf R Variant. For those unfamiliar, Variant is what Volkswagen calls the wagon version of the Golf (in some markets, anyway). It offers the Golf Variant with a variety of engines, but as the spy shots reveal, it is now working on bringing the Golf Variant and the Golf R together into one high-powered, long-roofed model.
The VW Golf R Variant would in all likelihood pack the same 2.0-liter turbo four as the hatchback, splitting 290 horsepower between all four wheels. Only in the wagon, it would offer that extra bit of utility. Of course there's no guarantee that Volkswagen would offer the Golf R Variant in the North American market, but considering that the Golf R hatchback will soon be joined in American showrooms by the Golf SpotWagen (as it's tipped to be called here) in place for the Jetta wagon, the possibility is definitely there.

The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
