1978 VW BUS "THE MOST EXTRAS AND AFTER MARKET ADD ONS AND ACCESSORIES ON A VW BUS ONLINE!"
This girl has been my love and passion over the past 4 years. I bought her in September 2009 in Tacoma, WA. The owner at that time told me he was to old to drive anymore and that he only used it on Sundays to go fishing. I 100% believe the odometer for that reason has not turned over and that the 52,970 miles as of this posting is the actual miles of the Bus. I drove her down the coast from Washington to my house in Manhattan Beach, CA. What an amazing drive on the Pacific Coast Highway! Only a VW Bus can offer that kind of breathtaking views. It was garaged at my home in Manhattan Beach for 3 years while I restored her and all the engine work and updating was done at Automeister. If you live in Southern California you know of or have been to Automeister and they are the best in the business. All interior and exterior add ons, replacements, and accessories were purchased at J Bugs, Bus Depot, and GoWesty and audio work was done at Manhattan Audio in Hermosa Beach, CA. I have all receipts and invoices for all the purchases and work done on the vehicle. I cut no corners on restoring, updating, and upgrading the bus. There is nothing you need to do after you purchase this vehicle but get in and start your own memories and adventures. Currently the VW Bus is garaged in Celebration, FL where Walt Disney World is located. I can work with you and have it loaded on a truck to be shipped to you(I recommend Red Carpet Transporters). I can also meet you in the Tampa Bay/ Orlando area. The pictures and video pretty much say it all about this VW Bus. For fun over the last 4 years I look on ebay to look at other bus's and I have not seen one other bus with all the extras I have put into mine. I have a perfect rating on ebay for over 16 years so bid and buy with complete confidence. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. My facebook page is Brandon Dean Tecklenburg and I have a couple photo albums with just the VW Bus pictures so feel free to friend me so you can look at more pictures. I have also added 3 youtube videos so you can view and listen to more information on the Bus: http://youtu.be/REw_xLqGIKY http://youtu.be/6wiTdzaatCg http://youtu.be/ECeRB7lL31s VW BUS from 2010 to 2013 has had these updates, upgrades and new parts: new clarion stereo system with fm/am/cd/aux/usb with xm/sirius ready stereo new steering horn new front seat floor mat new interior glove box new passenger door handle new front seat visors new front rear and side view mirrors new two drink cup holder where ash tray used to be new stick shift new westybox/storage box that goes in between front seats for a third seat front dash a/c vents or fresh air vents bus is outfitted for air conditioning, just needs new condenser. newly put in two more cigarette lighters in the dash for power outlets two electric heaters for camping long power cord to hook up when camping to electric outlet brand new padding and carpet tv/dvd combo with digital cable box and antenna working sink, furnace, two burner stove, ice box snow tire chains jumper cables battery jumper two new matching thorw pillows coleman propane tanks to use for furnance/ stove/ or bbq grill bbq grill for out door grilling two oscillating fans that plug into outlets 800 watt power outlet 400 watt power outlet marine battery and relay switch for drying camping and tailgating 4 coleman lanterns extra high mileage quarts of oil 12 x 12 green tent to go right outside of bus green tarp for outdoor flooring original green curtain to wrap around bay windows to block sun and for privacy. front tire cover vw bus table tailgating grill set key gas lock new oil cooler new cooler seals new dip stick boot new exhaust gaskets new turn signal switch all new cv joints new nose cone new axle boot kit new engine compartment seal new shift bushing new shocks new suspension and alignment new fuel hose new fuel filter new clamps and shock bolt new water pump and switch new fresh air hoses new muffler new westfalia tent new interior head board/ headliner thru out the bus new hankook tires new california legal catalytic converter new alternator new regulator exterior touch up paint original owners manual all receipts and invoices to be given to new owner I will accept full payment and it must be cleared before Bus title and keys are handed over.

French probe alleges 2 million PSA cars had engine cheats
Fri, Sep 8 2017PARIS — A French investigation into alleged emissions cheating by PSA Group found that suspect software had been used on almost 2 million vehicles sold by the maker of Peugeot and Citroen cars, Le Monde reported on Friday. Paris-based PSA denies any use of fraudulent engine software, a spokesman said in response to the newspaper report, which sent PSA shares sharply lower. The stock was down 4.4 percent at 17.78 euros as of 1019 GMT. So-called "defeat devices" restrict exhaust output of toxic nitrogen oxides (NOx) under regulatory test conditions while letting emissions far exceed legal limits in real-world driving. In February, PSA became the fourth carmaker to be referred to French prosecutors by the country's DGCCRF watchdog over suspected emissions test-cheating, after Volkswagen, Renault and Fiat Chrysler. PSA's engineering chief acknowledged at the time that emissions treatment in the group's diesels was deliberately reduced at higher temperatures to improve fuel efficiency and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in out-of-town driving, where NOx output is considered less critical. According to Le Monde, an internal PSA document obtained by DGCCRF investigators includes discussion of the need to "make the 'defeat device' aspect less obvious and visible." However PSA insists there is nothing fraudulent or illegal about its engine calibrations. "PSA denies any fraud and firmly reaffirms the pertinence of its technology decisions," the company said on Friday.

Are more diesel scandals about to erupt?
Fri, Nov 20 2015More automakers may soon be embroiled, like Volkswagen, in diesel emissions scandals. According to the Daily Kanban, either the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) or the Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH) will soon announce from 10 to 15 more cases of automakers cheating national diesel emissions rules. The outlet says three of the incidents are attributed to Opel. Studies conducted by the DUH, the University of Applied Sciences in Bern, Switzerland, and the UK's Leeds University found that Opel's diesel Zafira, Corsa, and Vectra models emit more NOx than European regulations allow when tested in ways that go beyond the European testing protocol, such as when done on a four-wheel rolling road instead of a two-wheel rolling road. Opel said the accusations had no merit. Specifically on the Zafira, the DUH asked Opel about the emissions findings, and Opel said that no General Motors software contains any measures to enable cheating. Opel then tested a Zafira of its own "both on a two- and a four-wheel roller dynamometer," finding that "The emission behavior determined in each case does not differ from one another." That makes this a case of he-said-she-said for the moment. The Daily Kanban's sources say the cheating methods "range from the crude to the highly sophisticated," with those at the latter end complex enough to render Volkswagen's methods "pedestrian." As for any automakers who might be named, the matter of real-world emissions exceeding a legal limit doesn't mean a carmaker has designed systems that cheat, it might mean the company designed the car to pass a test.

Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers
Fri, 19 Apr 2013The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
