1971 Vw Volkswagen Bus Double Cab Pick Up Truck on 2040-cars
Saint Augustine, Florida, United States
Project condition. It runs and drives with gas can. Tank is out. Dash is out. A lot of things are out, windows, windshield etc. Has Most all parts, some new, some original, but in good shape. Parts are in the truck and ready for shipping. We got this truck on trade a few days ago and watched as all parts one at a time were placed inside the vehicle or placed inside the bed. All parts are believed to be there for finishing the truck to driver condition, however we are not experts. What we can tell you is that 2 years ago the last owner paid $6,500 for the truck then purchased approx $1,500 in additional parts for the restoration. He and his wife bought a restaurant and have no free time to finish the truck so it was traded in. Rust yes, here and there. Pans bad, yes still bad not done however, a lot of bad spots have been done properly like bed and back seat area. We have seen it run 3 days ago up and down in the owners neighborhood hooked up to gas can. Tank is good, glass is good, dash is fine, and most all used parts are in good enough shape to use in restoration. If you plan on a show car new parts would need to be ordered. Really cool truck do not know much about them but but it sure has brought us alot of traffic to our location these past few days. This is a no reserve auction buyer responsible for pickup or delivery within 2 weeks we are limited on space. Good luck thanks for taking your time.

Volkswagen iBeetle gets integrated iPhone dock, little else
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Apple fans have been itching to see the tech giant flex the full muscle of its iOS operating system in an automotive infotainment system for years, which is why we turned all sorts of excited when we caught wind of the Volkswagen iBeetle. The machine is headed to the Shanghai Motor Show for a debut, and VW promised it would be one of the "first cars in the world to have a genuine integrative interface for the iPhone that was coordinated with Apple." Listen closely, and you can hear the contented sigh of a million wallets opening.
Go ahead and close those up, kids.
In reality, the iBeetle offers little more than a dash-mounted dock and a special app that shows a few vehicle functions, which is about as far from an infotainment revolution as you're likely to find. In fact, the setup is little more than a factory rehash of aftermarket items, and hardly worth a whole model debut at an international motor show. And that's to say nothing of the fact that Apple relishes in changing the shape and form of its darling handheld at every generation. Volkswagen better be prepared to keep pace with appropriate docking mechanisms for the upcoming iPhone 5S, 6, 6S, et al.
2015 VW Golf R caught getting a flogging on 'Ring
Wed, 22 May 2013The upcoming version of the Volkswagen Golf R is nearly ready for prime time, if this video of the car flying around the Nürburgring is any indication. The all-wheel-drive R seems to make quick, neat work of the corners we see here, and sounds pretty devilish in the process.
Expectations are that the new Golf R will run a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder (what else?), tuned to produce even more than the current car's 256 horsepower. (Some sources have indicated outputs as high as 286 horsepower, with 280 pound-feet of torque. It's still not clear if Volkswagen will bring the six-speed dual-clutch transmission to the US-spec Golf R in this next go-round or if we'll stick to having only... eh... the stick.
In either case - watching the video below will only whet your appetite for the new, highest performing member of the Golf family.
