ANOTHER BUS FOR SALE BY WEST COAST SAMBA

***This bus has a low reserve***


1969 Westfalia Campmobile. This is one of the most unique and rare optioned bay window Westfalias I have seen. This is a super rare full bench seat model Westfalia camper. This bus was originaly sold in Hamburg, Germany. Here is a list of the rare factory options: very rare delta green color, instrument panel in miles not km, ordered with a cab divider, factory prepared for campmobile interior. I have never seen a bench seat model Westfalia. 

Interior- The camping interior is equaly as rare. I have never seen this interior lay out in any Westfalia (very rare). All mustard yellow cushions are in excellent condition with only one small rip on fold down bench fabric. The propane tank for the stove is in good condition. All laminate is in good condition. Over all the camping interior is in great condition as seen in the pictures. Front seat has a couple rips and rubber mat is in great condition. Dash is in good condition with one small crack. Rare factory clock. 

Body- Cargo floors are solid, cargo door is solid, front doors are solid, battery trays are solid, and the rear corners have no rust. There is some rust on the doglegs, rockers, and a spot on the lower nose. Other than that this bus is solid. This is a solid foundation for a restoration on a very rare bus.

Engine- This bus does not run. The motor is out of the bus but included in the sale. New starter, battery, and axle shafts. Every thing else seems to be in good working order. Put a motor in it and it's ready to go camping.

This is a very rare and unique Westfalia. I have been restoring V.W.s for years and have never seen a Westfalia with this many rare options. Truly a one of a kind bus.

On Feb-09-13 at 12:16:34 PST, seller added the following information:

  I have received several emails commenting on the rarity of this Westfalia. This could possibly be the only one in existence with these unique options. This Westfalia could be a 1 of 1. Hard to say as this is the only one I know of. This is your chance to own one of the rarest Westfalias ever built. Fully restored, this van could be worth tens of thousands. This bus is undoubtably a rare piece of Volkswagen History.

Top 10 small cars with the longest total driving range

Thu, Mar 19 2015

Editor's Note: Since this article was originally posted in the spring of 2015, much has changed in the automotive landscape, especially among those shopping for small car economy. With thanks to Volkswagen for their blatant cheating – and subsequent cover-up – on diesel emissions, the largest player in the diesel passenger car segment isn't playing – they're paying; billions are going for both car buybacks and federally-imposed penalties. And for a few VW execs there exists the very real possibility of jail. With the absence of a big player and the abrupt entrance – via Chevy's new Bolt – of an affordable EV with 200+ miles of range, we've limited the diesel listings to Jaguar's new XE. And for those wanting an updated look at efficiency and range, Autoblog has it – or the EPA has it. Long before electric vehicles were part of the mainstream conversation, car lovers and skinflints alike would boast about the total range of their vehicles. There's something about getting farther down the road on one tank of gas that inflames the competitive spirit, almost as much as horsepower output or top speed. Of course, the vehicles with the very best range on today's market are almost all big trucks and SUVs; virtually all have the ability to carry massive reserves of fuel. Top up a standard Chevy Suburban and you can expect to travel almost 700 miles (you'll need to stop before the Suburban stops...), while a diesel-fed Jeep Grand Cherokee manages almost as many. But what about vehicles that are smaller? The EPA has, essentially, three classifications for 'small' vehicles: Minicompact, Subcompact and Compact. All three are measured based on interior volume, meaning that some cars with rather large exterior dimensions and engines slot in next to traditional small cars. But even though impressive GT coupes from Porsche, Bentley and Mercedes-Benz may have much larger gas tanks to feed their powerful engines, that capacity is offset by higher rates of consumption... in most cases. We used the EPA's Fuel Economy Guide for model year 2017 cars as a start, calculating the official highway miles per gallon rating with each vehicle's tank capacity. The resulting numbers aren't necessarily real world, but they do offer a spectrum for total theoretical range. The eventual top ten surprised me on a few occasions, and comprised quite a varied list of vehicles. 10.

Volkswagen Golf, Ford F-150 named 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Congratulations, Volkswagen Golf/GTI and Ford F-150. You've just been named the 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year, kicking off the first press day of the Detroit Auto Show. The Golf faced some seriously stiff competition from its runners-up, the Ford Mustang and Hyundai Genesis. But the Golf has been a highly awarded vehicle since its launch, including recently being named Motor Trend's Car of the Year. As for the Truck/Utility award, it wasn't immediately clear that the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 would win the North American honor, topping the Chevrolet Colorado and Lincoln MKC. The Chevy, after all, has been widely praised since arriving this fall, including taking home MT's Truck of the Year award. In 2014, Chevrolet had a sweep of the NACTOY awards, with the Corvette Stingray and Silverado taking top honors. Here's a look at the 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year voting breakdown. As you can see, it wasn't exactly neck and neck. Car of the Year Volkswagen Golf/GTI – 256 points Ford Mustang – 204 points Hyundai Genesis – 110 points Truck/Utility of the Year Ford F-150 – 297 points Chevrolet Colorado – 205 points Lincoln MKC – 68 points The winners were determined by the votes of 57 North American jurors who work in all forms of media – magazine, newspaper, television, online and radio, and their ballots were tabulated in secret by accounting firm Deloitte & Touche. Autoblog editors Sharon Carty and Chris Paukert are members of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year jury.
