History: This may not be the one the little old lady just drove to church on Sunday but it is the one the minister drove to church and across the United States to visit family. My grandfather, the original owner, purchased the Vanagon almost 30 years ago from Century Motors Inc. in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Vanagon has been a staple in my grandparents lifestyle for the last 30 years. The vanagon has made many trips to visit kids, grand kids and even some great grand kids. We have all enjoyed a camping trip or taking it canoeing. There have been a lot of great memories along the way for the first owners, due to senior expenses it is not time to pass it onto the second owner.
Condition: Over the last 30 years this vehicle has been well maintained. I have tried to document the interior and exterior condition in pictures. It was service most if it's life at a VW dealership until they no longer had a tech with the skills to work on the model. Then a retire tech from the dealership serviced it out of his own garage. The vanagon runs well, doesn't seem to leak any fluids. The engine was replaced at 220xxx miles and we have recently had the clutch serviced and a new alternator installed (over $600.00 receipt will be provided to high bidder) The interior is very good condition for it's age (see pictures) right down to the original VW floor mats. The exterior does have some small dents and dings, surface rust and the back bumper is wavy probably due to pulling canoes. Items I know that do not work include the A/C. and the hoses coming out of the windshield fluid wiper tank seem to leak, they probably just need replaced.
Features: Include, pop up roof w/double bed, refrigerator, propane stove, stainless steel sink, electrical hook-ups (none of these have not been used for a while) There are also two tables that came with the vanagon, lots of cabinet and store space. We are also including the original window sticker, WV manuals and manuals for the stove and other items.
Onsite Inspection: Please feel free to make arrangements via email for an onsite inspection. We are located 1 hour from Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus, OH.

VW agrees to halt next-gen rally car development to help others stay in WRC
Sat, 22 Jun 2013Volkswagen has petitioned the FIA to hold on to the current specifications for cars in the World Rally Championship, according to Autosport.com. The move is evidently an effort to keep as many competitors in the sport as possible, despite the fact that using the current spec racers may actually hurt Volkswagen's chances at winning. The three factory teams currently competing in the WRC are at the end of a three-year homologation cycle at the end of 2013, and new cars are expected to bow next year. But developing new racers could cost as much as $4.7 million.
That price tag would put M-Sport (which fields Ford racers) out of the WRC game for 2014 and would put Citroën participation in question as well. VW has already begun work on the next iteration of its Polo R WRC, and the hatch has nabbed four wins in six rounds this season. Now it appears that car won't bow until at least 2015. The FIA has officially agreed to freeze homologation of new WRC cars until the end of next season.
VW joins Daimler's protest of new A/C refrigerant as EU deadline for compliance passes
Sun, 06 Jan 2013The case of Dupont and Honeywell's refrigerant R-1234yf is doing the exact opposite of keeping things cool. The two chemical companies have spent years and hundreds of millions of dollars developing R-1234yf to replace R-134a, the new refrigerant shown to be 99.7-percent kinder to the environment than the one it is meant to succeed. Part of that development has been years of testing by governments, outside safety agencies and automakers to approve the chemical for use in cars. It passed the protocols necessary for the European Union to declare that new and significantly revised cars from 2013 onward needed to use R-1234yf, and mandated that every car as of 2017 must use it.
Enter Daimler AG. The automaker created a head-on collision test with a B-Class at their Sindelfingen test track that would lead to the pressurized refrigerant being sprayed on the engine. The result in 20 out of 20 test was that the refrigerant burst into flames as soon as it hit the hot engine, while Daimler says that R-134a does not catch fire in the same test. Another unexpected result of the R-1234yf test was the release of hydrogen flouride, a chemical far more deadly to humans than hydrogen cyanide, emitted in such amounts that it that turned the windshield white as it began to eat into the glass.
Said a Daimler engineer in a Reuters piece, "It was scarcely believable. The most complicated lab tests conducted using the most sensitive measuring instruments around found nothing and all we do is drive a car around a couple of times, open a tiny hole in the refrigerant line and the next thing you know the car is on fire." So Daimler said it wouldn't use the refrigerant, and it recalled the cars it had already shipped with R-1234yf.
