We are offering at auction a 1982 VW Westfalia pop top camper Diesel. We have the receipt for approx. $3600 for a VW factory rebuilt engine in 2001 which lists the mileage at the time as 3,975.the current odometer reading is approx 38,600 so we're guessing the engine has about 35k on it.The van is being sold as true mileage unknown because the original odometer must have been replaced around the time and mileage the engine was replaced and we have no way of knowing for certain.We installed a rebuilt fuel injection pump,fuel and oil filters,timing belt, glow plugs,manifold to muffler pipe and tailpipe and new front grille. We have the receipts for all the new parts as well as many old receipts ,besides the one for the engine,the original warranty booklet,and the original sales contract for the van to the original 67 year old couple that bought it for $16k+ in Fla.The engine starts very quickly in sub freezing temps and runs very strong.The clutch engages smoothly and the trans shifts with no issues,tires all match with approx. 75% tread left.The van drives straight,stops properly and although you'll win no races it drives great. There was rust thru on the front corner of the sliding door and in the panel between the top of the front bumper and bottom of the lower grille which was cut out and replaced by welded in metal(one of the pics show the new metal before paint)we also welded in a new drivers side body panel between the door and rear dogleg which had just begun to break thru with a metal replacement panel from The Bus Depot. Those areas were the only rust thru on the van. Once repaired they were painted with the correct factory code paint although it is a shade lighter than the remaining original paint. The only project we left undone is the replacement of the material on the pop up part of the roof(avail.@ The Bus Depot for about $300)The roof operates as it should but the canvas has deteriorated. All the lights,directionals,wipers,horn,gages,speedo,odometer and aftermarket Kenwood radio work. We've driven the van several hundred miles without a hiccup and a lot of enjoyment. We encourage inspection and a test drive if possible and will respond to emails. If you'd prefer to speak with us on the phone let us know and we'll provide a #. All inspections and questions must come BEFORE the end of the auction. Also we monitor our auctions closely and will not accept any zero rated bidders or those with questionable feedback. We cancel and block those bidders. Thank you.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Fri, 18 Dec 2009

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...

Giorgetto Giugiaro sells shares in legendary styling house to Audi

Sat, Jul 4 2015

Giorgetto Giugiaro undoubtedly stands among the great automotive designers of the 20th century, having penned the original Volkswagen Golf and Delorean DMC-12, among countless others. However, the great stylist is now longer an employee or even an owner of the company that bears his name. According to Automotive News, Giugiaro and his son, Fabrizio, sold their remaining 9.9 percent of Italdesign Giugiaro to Audi on Sunday, June 28, and the two resigned from the business the following day. The news about this just came out, though. The exact reason that the two men left the company hasn't been made entirely clear. According to Automotive News, a statement said that Giorgetto Giugiaro went "to dedicate more time to his personal interests." Italdesign Giugiaro remains open and intends to keep growing, though, the same announcement asserts. After stints at Bertone and Ghia, Giugiaro founded Italdesign in 1968. He created some masterpieces there, including '70s wedges like Maserati Merak, Lotus Esprit, and much more. The 2000s weren't so kind and 90.1 percent of the company was sold to Volkswagen Group in 2010. Former Audi design boss Wolfgang Egger took over styling duties there in late 2013, but he only lasted for about a year, leaving in late 2014. Since the sale, Italdesign has continued to work, including with the Gea concept at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show and the very mean-looking Parcour in 2013. Giugiaro's designs are still highly prized, as well. On September 5, Bonhams is auctioning the Maserati Boomerang concept by him and expects to get around $4 million for it. The gallery above offers a few more examples of his and Italdesign's concepts for VW Group over the years.

VW teams up with legendary electronic musicians Kraftwerk for 3D Autobahn concert

Fri, Jan 9 2015

Electronic music fans know Kraftwerk. To paraphrase a famous TV anchor, they're kind of a big deal. The band is in the midst of an eight-concert show at Berlin's Neue Nationalgalerie, which includes a full 3D accompaniment. Why, you ask, is this on Autoblog, then? Well, Volkswagen is sponsoring it, highlighting the role that its iconic Beetle played on the band's equally iconic fourth album, Autobahn. And besides, it's Friday afternoon, and who doesn't want to listen to the soothing synth notes of early EDM pioneers? Check out the featurette on the connection between VW and Kraftwerk, and then for giggles, scroll down and give the first track of Autobahn a listen. This content is hosted by a third party.
