1968 Volkswagon Westfalia Westy Camper Type 2 Air Cooled Camper Clean Nw Survivo on 2040-cars

1968 Volkswagen Bus Camper Type 2 Westfalia This is a very original,
very clean, very complete 1968 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia, it is in very good condition
and needs very little that we are aware of. It is an unrestored Pacific Northwest Survivor Very nice and featuring
all of its original camping gear, these are tough to find in this great of condition. It really does hearken
back to a simpler time and is an absolute blast to cruise around in. The paint appears shiny
and smooth with no large imperfections. The Orange main body paint is fresh and looks great. The interior looks to be
original and is in very good condition, no rips, tears or stains in the upholstery. It appears not to have any water leaks or damage from being outside too much. It also doesnt have any bad smells or seem to have been smoked in. The Pop-Top functions
great and the original upper cot is intact and functional. There is some
tearing in the canvas, as well as some stains, this is one of the few items I
would probably replace. The motor runs great, does
not smoke, starts well hot or cold, although it does leave a few drips of oil
on the ground as these usually do. It was rebuilt 36k miles ago, so I am sure it just needs some gaskets to seal it up. The tires are like new,
and the suspension is much improved over stock with large sway bars and quality
shocks. The suspension upgrades really make this bus drive much better than most. All bus's should have these upgrades, but they are expensive. The motor is a 1600cc single port with a Dual Weber ICT kit. Plus other upgrades like larger oil sump and ignition upgrades. The transmission shifts
as it great with a Scat shifter, linkage is tight and syncros are good. The
transmission was rebuilt by German Transaxle of America and features a 4.12
final drive. There is very little
rust to be found on this vehicle; I have included a picture of the right front
corner that has a small amount of rust present. This would be an easy repair, or not to worry about. This bus it appears to
have been garage kept and very, very well taken care of over the years. If you are in the market
for one of these charming old rigs, look no further, this is a great example.

Volkswagen Routan dead, pour out a sippy cup for your little homies
Thu, 28 Mar 2013America's minivan wolfpack has just gotten smaller by one. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen officials have confirmed what we've suspected for some time - the Routan is dead. Essentially a lightly reworked version of the Dodge Grand Caravan, the Routan actually hasn't been rolling off of Chrysler's Windsor, Ontario production line at all this year, but VW had yet to confirm its discontinuation. However, Jonathan Browning, CEO of VW America, has reportedly admitted that the Routan is being axed, with remaining units expected to be funneled into corporate functions for "internal purposes."
The move isn't unexpected - the Routan has never been a big seller, with just 57,650 examples moved since sales began in 2008 - peak yearly sales totaled under 16,000 units, and that was back in 2010. And while many have talked of the minivan segment shrinking, Automotive News points out that the segment actually grew 14 percent last year to 597,118 units, though it should be noted that most segments have been on sales upticks as the US economy chugs out of its recession.
So, is volume-crazy Volkswagen prepared to pass on large family vehicle sales? Probably not - the German automaker has signaled that it plans to build a three-row crossover in North America soon, and we wouldn't be surprised if it looks an awful lot like the Crossblue Concept from January's Detroit Auto Show - minus the fancy plug-in diesel powertrain.

Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.
