1960 Vw,bus, Model 215, Double Door,camper, Barn Stored Since 1989 on 2040-cars
Seabrook, New Hampshire, United States
Here is a 1960 VW, Bus Double Door Camper. It has been sitting in a barn since 1989 when it was parked because of a bad motor. I bought it from the Older guy that drove it from California in 89. He removed the motor way back then and never got to fixing it or doing anything with the bus. When I bought it the motor was still sitting next to it inside the barn. We loaded it inside before towing it out. The rear California Black plate & dealer plate surround are not included. The front plate & partial surround is included. This bus was manufactured Dec. 23rd of 1959. For a Jan 1960 delivery. It is a 215 model . There are camper windows installed , wood trim & paneling, some cabinet brackets & holes, Awning mounts on both sides of the roof, delivered Grey in color. All this leads to it being an aftermarket camper conversion, NOT a Westfalia Camper. The bus comes just as it is shown. It didn't have any camper interior when I got it. The previous owner says his Aunt & uncle had removed all the interior for more usable space as a van. The miles are 43268 on the odometer , The previous owner thinks they are correct. He acquired the bus from his aunt out on a Farm in California. The engine # that is inside the bus is D 1449943. The bus is really solid. There are only a few minor areas of rust to deal with. There was an area of the inside cargo floor that was rusted out and some critters made a home inside the belly pans. The critters urine & feces ate through a small area of the belly pan. I cut out the bad section of cargo floor to clean the nest & crap out of there. There is a picture showing this area. The battery tray area is bad, pic also. The pass side front floor section & a small area of the inside dogleg ( see pics). The drivers side rear panel from the cargo door lower hinge back to the rear corner has some dents & rust. I have tons of pictures but, I can only load 24. I have a few videos of me going along under the bus with a hammer hitting all over the place to show how solid it is. If you are seriously interested , get me your email and I'll send you all the additional pics & vids. This bus rolls easy, Parking brake works, tires hold air. You could be driving this with minimal work while you pick away at it or do a full resto. Sky's the limit.... This bus being a 215 Model Double Door Panel , MAKES it pretty rare. I don't really want to sell it but , I have way to many Other projects & vehicles and I wouldn't get to this for a long time. I think my reserve is very fair for this bus. If you are serious about making a Buy it Now offer , Then go ahead and shoot me a message. I AM WELL AWARE OF WHAT THE MARKET IS ON THESE VW's ! I have also had many vehicles come & go from all over the world. So, rest assured this would be a smooth transaction for you. I will be around for assistance, loading for transport. This is also being offered locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. Thanks for looking & good luck bidding !!!! NH DOESN'T title vehicles over 15 years old. This will come with a current reg. & a Bill of sale. You can verify this on the NH RMV website. I have sold many, many vehicles like this and There have been no issues for the buyers. |

VW redoes A-ha's 'Take On Me' music video
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Volkswagen has been responsible for its fair share of witty, clever commercials. "Tiny Vader" might be the most popular, but somehow, we think this newest spot will find a big audience. VW delivers not so much a cover, but a reimagining, of 1980s Norwegian pop band A-ha's famous music video for "Take On Me."
The original opens with an animated motorcycle race, which is revealed to be part of a comic book. VW's version replaces the motorcycle with a Passat, which strikes us as an oddly sober choice when there are cars like the GTI and Beetle in VW's portfolio. But never mind that - take a look down below for the entire 46-second spot. For reference, we've also included the original music video. And if you aren't a fan of the musical stylings of A-ha, just think, VW's choice of 1980s music could have been much worse.
Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow
Thu, 17 Jan 2013A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.
VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
