UP for bid today is a heavy project volkswagen bus! Its one huge plus is that it comes with a lot of parts! Let me list them, TWO engines (apart) one is a 1600 dual port and the other is a 1700 dual carb (no carbs included). Both of the engines are NOT assembled. Most of the pieces are there. The 1600 did run before I took it apart. The rod bearings were showing copper and the crank looks like it needs to be reground. The heads for the 1600 are included and look OK. I can't see any cracks. I will include most of the fan shrouding for both engines plus a 1500 non doghouse shroud from another project. The 1700 was bought from another seller. It had been sitting for awhile and had gotten water into one cylinder. The engine would turn but would stop at one point. This was because the water in the one cylinder had corroded the aluminum of the head and wouldn't allow it to reach TDC. No carbs are included in this sale. The 1700 block, which btw is a type four engine, seems to be fine. Along with the crank. IT doesn't seem like the bottom end of the 1700 needed any machining work but that will be up to the buyer. The bus does have it's windshield. It is located in the back. You will also get two middle seats and the rear seat, two used but good head exchanges for a 1600 and other misc parts! The bus only has 21,000 miles on the transmission! Such a shame for all the body rot.. The rain gutters are probably going to be the hardest to replace. Along with the panel under the windsheild, the doglegs, parts of the floor are gone as well. There is plenty of rust! If you have any questions feel free to email me. The bus and parts are being sold AS A WHOLE LOT. I will not be splitting anything up! Bus needs to be gone by july first so if you have any trouble getting a trailer let me know, we might be able to work something out. Thanks!

Car companies may need to start curbing model proliferation
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Looking at the current automotive landscape, especially from German makers, you quickly get the impression that less definitely isn't more. BMW alone offers its 3 Series platform in practically every segment possible, including the regular sedan and 4 Series Gran Coupe, which would seem to be direct competitors. Porsche might be the winner, though, with 20 different variants of the 911 listed for sale on its US website. However, some of this model madness might be reaching an end as companies begin cutting back spending or shifting money to other priorities.
According to Yahoo Finance, the offerings from the German automakers are up 25 percent over the past three years to over 200 models in Europe. The peak is expected to come around 2018 at 230 separate vehicles, according to consulting company PwC.
Amazingly, BMW, which is among the poster children for this model explosion, might be changing its tune. "I'm sure there will be points in the future where we look at certain cars and say, 'Maybe we need to think differently now,'" said head of sales Ian Robertson in an interview, according to Yahoo Finance. The statement certainly sounds shocking coming from a company rumored to have 23 front-wheel-drive vehicles all using a single platform on the way.
Andretti Autosport partners with Volkswagen for Global Rallycross season
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Michael Andretti and Volkswagen have both been involved in Global Rallycross for a couple of years, but not together. Andretti Motorsports Marketing organized the final round of the 2012 GRC series in Las Vegas, and there were rumors then that Andretti was going to get in. Around the same time there were news reports that Volkswagen was preparing a 600-hp Polo Mk5 to race in the SuperCar class; the photo above is racer Anton Marklund in his privateer Marklund Motorsports Polo at the 2013 X-Games round in Los Angeles.
Now it's official: Andretti Autosport will campaign the 2014 GRC season with VWs. That's all that's been said for now, Andretti being busy at the moment launching four entries for IndyCar, two for Indy Lights and two for Pro Mazda. We have a feeling we'll be seeing the MkVII Golf involved, but the cars and the driver lineup will be presented at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6.
