 THIS 1982 VOLKSWAGEN VANAGON “L” WESTFALIA CAMPMOBILE IS POWERED BY A FUEL INJECTED, 2.0 L ENGINE AND MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE IS IN VERY CLEAN, ORIGINAL CONDITION THROUGHOUT. THERE ARE VERY FEW VANAGONS AS NICE AS THIS DRY, TEXAS WESTFALIA. 

THE FRAME IS STRAIGHT AND SOLID AND SHOWS NO SIGNS OF RUST OR COLLISION DAMAGE. THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE RUST FREE AND IN GOOD SHAPE.  ALL THE HINGE AND DOOR SILL AREAS ARE IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. EVEN THE ORIGINAL SERIAL NUMBER STICKER IS STILL ON THE DRIVERS DOOR JAMB.

THE VEHICLE’S ENGINE, TRANSMISSION AND REST OF THE DRIVETRAIN ARE IN GOOD /TOP FORM TO EXCELLENT CONDITION. HOWEVER, LIKE ALL VANAGON CAMPERS, ABOUT $500 -$800 MAINTENANCE IS CALLED FOR. AND THE PRICING/RESERVE HAS BEEN SET WELL BELOW THIS IN ORDER FOR THE NEW OWNER TO BENEFIT FROM THE PURCHASE AS-IS. THE AIR CONDITIONING IS PRESENT, BUT THE MOTOR IS DISCONNECTED, THE BRAKES NEED SERVICING AND CV AXLES NEED MAINTENANCE, AND ONE OF THE MOTOR SEALS ( MOST LIKELY VALVE COVER GASKET) IS  LEAKING A SLIGHT AMOUNT OF OIL. THE ODOMETER STOPPED FUNCTIONING JUST RECENTLY, HOWEVER THE MILEAGE READING OF 124K SEEMS TO CORRELATE WITH THE CONDITION OF THIS WESTFALIA.

ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT MAKES THIS VEHICLE TRULY STAND OUT IS THAT IT STILL SPORTS THE ONE YEAR ORIGINAL TO WESTFALIA ONLY, FACTORY BLUE PAINT. THIS COLOR IS CONSIDERED BY MANY TO BE ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC AND ATTRACTIVE COLOR EVER OFFERED ON A VANAGON. THE MAJOR EXTERIOR BODY PANELS ARE STRAIGHT AND PROPERLY ALIGNED WITH GOOD, GAP FIT AROUND ALL THE DOORS AND HATCHES. THERE ARE SOME SCRATCHES AND SCRAPES ON THE PAINT BUT THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED FOR THE YEAR/MILEAGE.

THE FACTORY ORIGNAL INTERIOR SHOWS THE SAME QUALITY AS THE REST OF THE VEHICLE. THE INTERIOR UPHOLSTERY AND TRIM PANELS ARE ALL IN EXCELLENT TO GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THIS VECHILE HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF THROUGHOUT ITS LIFE.

THE POP TOP FUNCTIONS EASILY AND FLAWLESSLY AND THE TENT HAS NO RIPS OR TEARS. ALL THE APPLIANCES FUCTION AS THEY SHOULD AND THERE IS A HIGH END ECLIPSE FOUR SPEAKER STEREO SYSTEM WITH DUAL AMPLIFIERS.

THE TIRES HAVE PLENTY OF TREAD AND IT HAS AN OPTIONAL TRAILER HITCH.

Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively. Check out the press release below for more information.

Volkswagen officially grants access to UAW in Tennessee

Tue, Dec 9 2014

An audit at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN has revealed that at least 45 percent of the facility's workers support unionization, leading the German company to grant access rights to the United Auto Workers. This is a tremendous step in the UAW's long-running and at times contentious pursuit of the workforce at Chattanooga. With this latest move, "local leadership is ready to move forward with additional conversations with the company," the union said in a statement obtained by The Detroit News. "As a starting point, UAW Local 42 will take advantage of the company's offer to establish bi-weekly meetings with Volkswagen Human Resources and the Volkswagen Chattanooga Executive Committee." The News reports that UAW Secretary-Treasurer Gary Casteel, shown above speaking at the Chattanooga plant last summer, claimed these meetings "will remind Human Resources and the Chattanooga Executive Committee of the mutually agreed-upon commitments that were made by Volkswagen and the UAW last spring in Germany. Among those commitments: Volkswagen will recognize the UAW as the representative of our members. We believe Volkswagen made this commitment in good faith and we believe the company will honor this commitment." It's important to note that despite Casteel's remarks, this is not a collective-bargaining agreement, Harley Shaiken, a labor professor at University of California, Berkeley, told The News. "But it is a step in the direction of recognition, which ultimately could lead to collective bargaining. This is not the end point," Shaiken said. "We don't know what's next. We're in unchartered territory."

BMW, VW partner with ChargePoint for high-speed charging network

Thu, Jan 22 2015

To promote their plug-in electric vehicles, a number of electric vehicle makers are working overtime to get a charging infrastructure set up. Tesla is famously setting up a network of Superchargers around the world, and today BMW and VW have announced they are partnering with ChargePoint to install almost 100 DC Fast Chargers up and down the US coasts. Installing additional Level 2 chargers is also part of the plan. The new DC Fast Chargers will offer the SAE Combo connectors, which is available on both the e-Golf and the i3. The fast chargers will have "up to two 50 kW DC Fast chargers, or 24 kW DC Combo Fast chargers," BMW says. They will be installed roughly 50 miles apart between Boston and Washington, DC in the east as well as Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego in the west. The 24-kW DC Fast Chargers will fill up an empty i3 or e-Golf to 80 percent in a half-hour or 3.5-4 hours from the Level 2 cords. Speaking at an announcement ceremony at the Washington Auto Show today, ChargePoint CEO Pasquale Romano said that infrastructure investments like this will get more people to realize that they can use an electric vehicle as their only car, and Jorg Sommer, VP of product marketing and strategy for VW North America, said that it's clear that, "The EV is perfect for the daily driver." BMW, Volkswagen and ChargePoint Join Forces to Create Electric Vehicle Express Charging Corridors on the East and West Coasts. ท A goal of nearly 100 DC Fast charging ports will be installed to support long distance and metropolitan electric vehicle travel with the BMW i3, Volkswagen e-Golf and other electric cars, along heavily trafficked corridors on both coasts, supported by Level 2 chargers. ยท These publicly available charging stations will be added to the existing ChargePoint network and can be easily accessed using a ChargePointยฎ or ChargeNow card. Washington, D.C., January 22, 2015 ย– At the 2015 Washington Auto Show, two of the top automakers, BMW of North America and Volkswagen of America, together with ChargePoint, the largest electric vehicle charging network, announced an initiative to create express charging corridors along heavily-traveled routes on the East and West Coasts.
