1967 Vw Bus Deluxe Walk-through 13 Window on 2040-cars

Year:1967 Mileage:89000
Location:

1967 Deluxe walk-through 13 window VW Bus fresh from the garage where she has been hibernating since 1999...  I bought the bus in 1995 (after finding her resting in a barn for like 15 yrs) drove it for a couple years, then parked her in a garage in 1998 running and driving fine.  Recently I pulled the re-built motor for a '71 bus, other wise this bus would drive today.


If you are looking at these photos then you know what this is... other than the issues with the rocker panels this bus is virtually rust-free (for an original '67). Notice the photos of the underbody... only light surface rust, beams are 100% solid, nothing standing in the way of a stellar restoration.  Some folks are setting up these 13 window busses as 23 window clones and this is a very solid bus for such restoration.

Gas tank has been professionally sealed on the inside and painted on the outside.


Interior has been fit with custom wood panels in good shape and includes one original bench seat as well as the 2 original front seats (almost no damage).


After being heavy into busses for 20 years I have seen few original splitties in such good shape.  I hate to sell but with 2 daughters to raise I don't have the time to do the restoration she deserves.  Very rare to find such a solid bus from NC so if you are on the East coast and want a clean bus without shipping it from California then this is for you.  Clear NC title and original key.


Let the photos be your guide, let me know if you have questions or specific photo needs.


$500 paypal deposit required within 2 days of auction ending.  Only accepting in person CASH transaction for remainder of payment.  (you give me the cash, I give you the title)  Buyer arranges and pays all shipping costs if shipping desired. 


** I will include front and rear bumpers for this bus for an additional $300 after sale

Volkswagen formally introduces super-efficient XL1

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Lightweight and low drag are hallmarks of great sportscar design. But when paired with a super-efficient, hybrid powertrain, you have the Volkswagen's XL1 that has been formally introduced in Geneva today.
When the 1,700-lb, carbon-fiber-bodied two-seater hits the road, its claimed 261 miles per gallon will make it the world's most-fuel-efficient production car. Though "production car" might be a stretch since VW said in a February press release that the XL1 would be built using "handcrafting-like production methods." We translate that to mean you won't be seeing many of these cars on the road. Though no one at VW has mentioned pricing yet, early rumors suggested a six-figure price tag.
That's supercar budget for a vehicle that has a 47-horsepower, two-cylinder diesel engine and a 27hp electric motor. With numbers like that, owners can expect 0-62 mph times of 12.7 seconds and top speed near 100 mph.

Volkswagen CrossBlue previews a three-row future, diesel-hybrid power [w/video]

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Volkswagen looks to be getting ready to jump into the large three-row crossover game. The automaker has officially pulled back the curtain on the CrossBlue Concept at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Designers and engineers penned the machine specifically for the Canadian and US markets, and with a plug-in diesel electric hybrid drivetrain, the hulking five-door, at least in concept form, should offer substantially better efficiency than anything else on the market. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a combined output of 305 horsepower and a ludicrous 516 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifting detail, while one electric motor spins the front wheels. The second motor spins the back axle independently, make the CrossBlue a through-the-road hybrid.
As a result, the crossover can pop to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Perhaps more impressively, the CrossBlue can whir around on all-electric propulsion for up to 14 miles at up to 75 mph. Once the diesel four kicks in, the drivetrain can yield up to 39 mpg, though Volkswagen says the hardware can hit 89 MPGe on a full charge thanks to a 9.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Check out the full press release below for more information.

Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
