FOR SALE..... A 1972 vw Bus. Type 2. I purchased this vehicle in the summer of 2006. It was a daily driver. Until the rains came. Then I found numerous leaks around the windows. Started investigating and removed the window seals and glass. I found rust holes along the base of the window frames. The bus was not my primary vehicle, so I parked it in the garage and figured I would get to it when I could. I figured I would redo the interior while I was at it.....so i removed everything......paneling, head liner, seats etc. Then a couple years went by.....And it still sat there. I would occasionally start it up and let it run. But a couple more years went by and found the battery to be dead and when it was the original tank of gas since I parked it, I decided not to mess with it. So the short of it......It's been a couple of years since it has been fired up. When I drove it, everything was smooth. Shifted through all gears smoothly and ran strong. The body is straight and the paint is original. There is areas along the body where i sprayed primer paint to protect the body, molding mounts, emblem mounts and exposed metal. The mileage says 52,+++ , but I couldn't tell you really what that represents. The vehicle is what it is. Could be a great easy restore project or a simple road ready vehicle with a little T.L.C.

The buyer is responsible for pickup/delivery arrangements and cost. I am willing to help with coordination of process any way I can.

Payment is due at the end of bidding, You may contact me to arrange. I will accept cash, cashiers check or even a personal check but the vehicle and title would not be released until the check clears.

Skoda Octavia vRS is just the thing for your pumped-up neighborhood

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

Skoda, oh Skoda. You're just so cool. Maybe it's the fact that it's a brand that we don't get in these United States, but Skoda's rebadged Volkswagens, in particular the new Octavia vRS shown here, are just different enough from the hum-drum VWs on our shores that the Czech brand seems strangely desirable. Maybe we're just craving forbidden fruit.
This short, minute-long spot covers the new vRS in a world of excess, where strollers ride on 26-inch wheels, lawnmowers feature V8 engines and ice cream cones are the size of toddlers. As things often go in these ads, the Octavia vRS draws the eyes of passerby that are seemingly use to things far more ridiculous than a reasonably priced Czech sedan. In reality, the Octavia should be fairly familiar to American buyers. It uses the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-pot found in the Volkswagen GTI and Jetta GLI, with 217 horsepower, and sits on the same platform as the Audi A3 and Volkswagen Golf. Take a look at the full spot, below.

Europeans get first crack at new Golf Variant wagon

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Just last week, when we brought you news of a new Volkswagen Golf variant out and testing in Europe, we had no idea we were being so literal with out description. For it seems that VW has every intention of calling its new Golf wagon, making its Geneva debut, the "Golf Variant."
Odd/interesting sobriquets taken as read then, there's a lot to like about this new small wagon from VW. The Variant will shed some 232 pounds in this generation, and will come to market with two efficient TDI engines. Volkswagen isn't giving us displacement figures for either yet, but we're told the diesels will come with outputs of 110 and 150 horsepower. The 110-hp TDI BlueMotion Varient will be good for a whopping 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle, when mated to the six-speed manual transmission.
The German automaker has brought along an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version of the Gold Variant to bow in Geneva, as well, and a natural gas-burning TGI BlueMotion is said to be "in the pipeline."

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
