1991 Volkswagon Vanagon , Vw Bus, Gl , Almost No Rust Imaculate Orginal Interior on 2040-cars
|
The bus was my daily driver until I listed it on ebay. It was sold on ebay and unregistered and i had the insurance removed, However the wining bidder didn't pay and ignored all contact so now it up for auction again.
The question I have recived most often is would I get in and drive it 5-6 states away and back. The answer is yes. It has never let me down since I owned it. The bus has been sitting for 10 days now with only two starts for 3 minutes. Mileage is currently 145,066 , it has no frame rust and only minimal rust in the usual Vanagon areas. It is though almost rust free. The interior vynil floor is a beautiful addition to this bus and looks great. The paint is orginal butthe clear coat has faded and is peeling in spots. The clear coat is long gone from the roof. The bus is in great shape and even though it is not a showroom condition, everything is unmanipulated. The Bus was owned by a local church for a very long time. Through the previous auctions I was informed the interior is not orginal to the year. However I am not a VW expert and have listed this bus to the best of my capabilities. VIN# WV2YB0259MG001135 New Parts: It has new Fuel injectors Fresh Transmission Service New Transmission Pan Gasket New Transmission Filter. New Ignition New Bosch Fuel Regulator New/Rebuild Airflow Meter. New Battery New Wiper Blades in the front. New Fuel Pump New Pre Pump Filter New Main Fuel Filter New Temp2 Sensor New Spark Plugs Brand New Window Tint. ( If its illegal in your state it will be easy to take off as it is so new. But again it took me 8 hours to get the 15 year old tint off. It looks much better now. It has LED Light Strip installed that just needs to be hard wired. Changes Colors and goes to the music has a remote as well so you can light up the whole bus now. I did reground the bus and cleaned off all ground connections and made new clean connections. The sale will include a few parts including another AFM these are valued at $200 - $350 each There is also a Computer im including but its from an earlier bus that does not work with this one (perhaps sell it and make 100 Buxs), A known to be working used Fuel regulator a few belts, a used but known working fuel pump and used but working spare coil. I keep these parts under the rear bench because you never know. Known Issues. The O2 sensor is not connected Windshield has a crack, Antenna is Bent/Broken AC was bypassed when I bought it PO stated the clutch was loud but was still working. Power Steering was also bypassed by PO because it had a small leak on the front rack. Both items have been left as is since i have owned the bus. Cruise Control never used lever on steering column seems as if it is disconnected. but all components are intact and present. |

Volkswagen Golf Variant Concept R-Line puts the sport in SportWagen
Wed, 06 Mar 2013With the introduction of the newest Volkswagen Golf Variant, we get an early look at what will most likely be the next-generation Jetta SportWagen here in the US. To further wet our appetities, VW is now teasing something a little sportier with the Concept R-Line. Looking the part of a GTI wagon (or a stretched Golf R), the Golf Variant Concept R-Line has a production-ready appearance that has us hoping we'll see this sporty wagon sooner rather than later.
The R-Line starts off with a new fascia that isn't quite as aggressive as the recently introduced GTI, but it gives the new styling some extra punch. Below the fascia is a lower splitter that visually carries back into the rocker panel extensions, and the rear of the car gets some bright exhaust tips and a rear diffuser. The Lapis Blue Metallic paint job probably does enough on its own to add a sporty flair to the Golf wagon, and it's all finished off with 18-inch split-spoke wheels. Inside, the Concept R-Line shows off sport seats wrapped in carbon leather featuring blue nappa inserts in the middle.
Rightfully so, VW brought the Concept R-Line to Geneva with its TDI and 4Motion all-wheel-drive system. A sporty, all-wheel-drive diesel wagon? Yes, please. Scroll down for the full press blast with all the details.
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.
VW recalling 38k Jettas, Passats, Golfs and Beetles for fuel leak
Wed, Dec 31 2014Earlier we reported on a recall issued for the 2015 VW Jetta regarding a problem with the headlights, and now Volkswagen and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued another recall for a separate issue affecting not only the Jetta, but several other models as well. The issue revolves around a sealing cap in the fuel rail, which could leak fuel into the engine compartment and potentially cause a fire. The problem affects an estimated 37,979 vehicles in the United States, including the 2014-15 Jetta (manufactured between March 28 and November 24, 2014), the 2014-15 Passat (April 7 to November 18), the 2015 Golf and GTI (July 1 to November 20) and the 2014-15 Beetle and Beetle Convertible (March 31 to November 27). That covers pretty much the entire range offered by Volkswagen of America, short of the Tiguan and Touareg crossovers (and the discontinued Eos convertible). Considering, though, that VW routinely sells around 30,000 vehicles in the US each month, the small number of vehicles being recalled (relative to the quantity out there) tells you this recall really only affects a specific cross-section of models. Owners of the affected vehicles can expect to be contacted by their dealers to have the fuel rails replaced. RECALL Subject : Fuel Leaking Into Engine Compartment Report Receipt Date: DEC 22, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V809000 Component(s): FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE Potential Number of Units Affected: 37,979 Manufacturer: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. SUMMARY: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Jetta vehicles manufactured March 28, 2014, to November 24, 2014, certain 2014-2015 Passat vehicles manufactured April 7, 2014, to November 18, 2014, certain 2015 Golf and GTI vehicles manufactured July 1, 2014, to November 20, 2014, and certain 2014-2015 Beetle and Beetle Convertible vehicles manufactured March 31, 2014, to November 27, 2014. A sealing cap at the fuel rail may fail, allowing fuel to leak into the engine compartment. CONSEQUENCE: A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in a vehicle fire. REMEDY: Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel rails with new parts, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-822-8987. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 24Bi.
