1966 Volkswagen Bus Vw on 2040-cars
Glendale, California, United States
|
I originally
purchased this bus to do a full restoration on since their value is going up
but due to family obligation I can no longer work on it. Right now the car runs a little rich but I
think it’s the carburetor. Car drives
great and shifts through all gears perfectly fine. I added front door panels but they are not
screwed in. I just recently registered it in California so
it will have a California title. The description
below is from the previous owner.
Ok, Here is
a rare opportunity to own a piece of Volkswagen History. I bought this from the
Original Owner. It sat in a garage in Mcminville Oregon for years. It served the owner very well throughout the
years, until it was parked, due to Brake issues. It was bought new @ Koch
Motor's and I have the Original Dealer licence plate Frame, as well as the
Original Oregon Plates, that were issued to it when the Original owner bought
it.
When I
purchased it...It had sat for quite a while. It needed some rust repair in the
front floor, as well as the rear cargo floor. I bought and installed a Gerson
complete front floor. It still could use some rust repair, but nothing too
crazy really. You can enjoy it right now and do it as time allows, as I have
done. It has the Original Engine and
Original Big but Transmission. This bus runs and drives great! Here is a List
of what I have done to make it Road Worthy:
New Shocks
and new Link Pins New Master
Cylinder New Wheel
Cylinders New Shoes
and I had the drums turned New soft Brake lines up front Full Tune up
on Original Engine New Battery
and Fuel Line from Tank to pump to carb, as well as a new fuel filter. New Tires
with fresh Powdercoated wheels Lubed all
Zerk Fittings
It is a Walk Thru Model, which is more
desirable to most and has all of the Original seats. Both Original Floor mats
are Intact. Has long interior panel but missing other Interior panels. Has the
Spare Tire in back, as well as the Original Spare Tire cover. Overall, it is
hard to find a bus as complete as this one is and it is even harder to find one
in this condition.
This vehicle
is sold as-is with no warranty. Don’t
miss this opportunity to own a piece of VW history. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Eigg's renewable energy grid, Wulin City Car EV looks like i3
Fri, Sep 12 2014Scotland's Isle of Eigg's electrical grid relies solely on wind, hydro and solar power. It's the first grid of its kind after switching to renewable energy from noisy, unreliable diesel generators. Scotland's renewable resources are fodder for supporters of independence form the UK, and Eigg is a perfect example of that potential. Besides being a responsible community, it also seems like a lovely place to visit. Read more at Reuters. London Mayor Boris Johnson is calling for incentives for diesel vehicle scrapping. The goal is to improve London's air quality, encourage the purchase of clean vehicles and offset the inconvenience of charging diesel cars to enter the city's proposed Ultra Low Emissions Zone. Read more at Green Car Congress or in the press release below. BMW, Nissan, Renault and Volkswagen are teaming up to create a better EV charging infrastructure in the UK and Ireland. As part of the Trans-European Transport Network (T-ENT) program, the group aims to create extended EV-friendly roadways with the UK Rapid Charge Network, connecting major cities on the islands. Plans for the network include 70 rapid chargers along 684 miles of road. The four manufacturers also want to extend the project to mainland Europe to encourage the adoption of EVs. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Wuling is working on an EV, called City Car, which liberally takes visual cues from the BMW i3. The City Car EV concept is slated to make its debut in November at the Guangzhou Auto Show, while a production version could make its way onto Chinese roads next year. We might have to wait until the debut to know what powers the City Car, as those details haven't been released yet. General Motors is a 43-percent stakeholder in Wuling. Read and see more at Car News China. Taxi customers in New York will enjoy greater payment flexibility with the new interoperability between RideLinQ and Way2ride apps. Now customers will be able to use either app to pay in any of the city's 20,000 green and yellow taxis. There's no need for separate apps for separate cabs, and no need for drivers to install any new equipment. The groups behind the apps hope to expand this functionality to other cities across the country. Read more in the press release below.
Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept still makes us swoon
Fri, Nov 21 2014We know, we know – this hot little guy isn't really new or anything. Volkswagen first rolled out the Golf R 400 concept in Beijing earlier this year, and since its debut, we've heard rumors that the German automaker might-perhaps-maybe-hopefully build the thing. Its showing here in Los Angeles simply marks the first time it's debuting in America, and honestly, we can't get enough. So here it is, again. Hello, Golf R 400 – we love you. And what's not to love? What starts as a normal Golf R gets better with a more aggressive appearance, big wheels, some tasteful neon yellow accents, and a whole mess of power. The original concept packed 395 horsepower from an overblown 2.0-liter turbo-four, though the most recent reports suggest a production version could produce over 400 hp. To keep it all in line, the concept has all-wheel drive. And inside, it's the same functional, comfortable Golf we've always loved. There's nothing left to say, really. We love this car, and you should, too. Check it out in the gallery above.
Tanner Foust checks out his new VW Beetle GRC rally car
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Racing driver and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is a very busy guy. After all, he's competing in rounds of both Global Rallycross series and FIA World Rallycross Championship, not to mention his TV duties. However, we probably shouldn't feel too sorry for him, because his job puts him behind the wheel of some truly crazy machinery.
Case in point is his latest ride in Global Rallycross - the Volkswagen Beetle GRC. The German company claims that this all-wheel drive Bug makes around 540 horsepower from its 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and can shoot to 60 in under 2 seconds. Plus, if this video is any indication, this Volkswagen sounds like a machine gun when throwing revs at idle, and it can do some wonderfully easy four-wheel drifts.
Previously, Foust was driving a VW Polo for Andretti Autosport in GRC, but the team unveiled the look of the Beetle GRC at the Chicago Auto Show. Now, Foust is finally getting to show off his new office to the public, and like VW's tagline for the new car claims, it's way hotter than Herbie.
