Loooong Volkswagen Doka - Uberunique! on 2040-cars
Evergreen, Colorado, United States
|
Front of a '62 Double Cab attached to the long bed of a '59 single cab. Double treasure chests, Safaris front and rear, grafted OG corner glass, walk-thru, new canvas on seat frames, new coconut pads & seat covers from Wolfsburg West, interior panels from Clara, Bakelite Suicide Knob on steering wheel, driver's side rocker needs paint but has been repaired nicely.
KCW adjustable front beam, chrome five star wheels, tires have <600 miles on them, professionally installed Wiring Works custom harness, professionally installed new fuel tank, new German master cylinder, new rear drums, brake pads & hoses all the way around. Shaved front turn signals (have billet signals/wiring for bumpers). Rear & front bumpers w/towel bars included. Brand new seals, WW rubber front mat, big OG stop light for rear. New shocks. Decklid included. Our summer plans are beginning to gel which do not include many shows or street cruises. We're in the final throws of restoring a pretty neat '71 tin-top bay camper for our daughter. Taking that and our '63 Caravelle camper out camping a lot this summer. This is the only reason we're posting this bus. Would be a perfect advertising bus, cruiser or special show ride. We're just not going to be doing much of either and I'd be remiss if this bus doesn't get the attention it clearly has earned. Being an OG geek, I simply do not get this one out much. For those purists out there who are more interested in passing judgement than being cool, please heckle someone else; I fully recognize and accept this bus isn't for everyone. If you don't like the faux-tina, paint it the way you'd prefer. Happy to drive, or trailer, it to you for a reasonable, and agreed upon, fee. Should have more images over the next couple of days. This bus does need some additional attention, as most busses do, although the vast majority of the work and expense has already been done. You are undoubtedly intelligent and know the market for busses too, consider what the expense might be to duplicate a unique ride like this one. The welding alone is worth quite a bit, even if you could source a clean double cab front end and clean single cab long end. And OG glass all the way around, with the exception of the front of and rear safaris. The video on youtube under - '62 VW Double Cab - showcases just a few of the steps taken to finish the Loooong Doka. The video was posted by GetWheelHappy. The motor in the video is not included as it has been installed in our daughter's tin-top bay camper. To say it another way, this bus DOES NOT include a motor. Please also factor this into consideration when you place your bid. Please know this is a pretty unique bus, one that doesn't hit the market very often. Might be your cup of tea, might not be. Interested in making some changes? That is entirely your decision when you own it. We're more motivated in this bus going to someone who who appreciates, and recognizes, how special it truly is than asking an astronomical figure for the bus. That being the case, starting the auction at $.99 with NO RESERVE. Thanks for taking the time to read this auction and good luck with your bidding! |

FCA to pay buyers $1,700 to swap out of scandal-mired VWs
Tue, Oct 6 2015FCA is trying to gain some sales from arch-rival VW in the competitive European market by offering potential buyers in Italy up to $1,700 to swap into an FCA group car. While the promotion isn't specifically targeted at TDI owners affected by the emissions scandal, it is clearly intended to turn dissatisfaction with VW's defeat device cheat into additional sales, Bloomberg reports. The 500-1,500 euro incentive (roughly $560-1,700, depending on vehicle) stacks on top of any other rebates or deals applicable, and applies if a buyer brings in any of Volkswagen Group's cars – including Audi, Skoda, and SEAT, among (many) others. As Bloomberg notes, it's normal for automakers to offer "conquest" deals – giving a buyer cash for trading in a competitor's vehicle. Those deals aren't usually limited to one company's products, however; FCA's program looks specifically to take advantage of VW's legal and public relations nightmare. FCA isn't the only automaker trying this trick in Italy. Automotive News Europe also reported that Ford is offering approximately $840 in incentives across its entire range to owners of VW vehicles seeking to trade in for a Ford. No word of yet as to whether these incentives will spread beyond Italy or to other automakers.Related Video:
Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.
