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.

VW debuts Get Happy Super Bowl ad

Mon, 28 Jan 2013


Brace yourself for another tidal wave of Super Bowl commercials. Volkswagen has released its spot for this year's big game. Set to air during the second quarter, the Get Happy spot follows one jubilant office worker as he makes his way through the day, spreading joy wherever he goes. The source of his happiness? A Volkswagen Beetle, of course. Now, if you're wondering why a gaggle of white guys are running around on your screen with Jamaican accents, it will help to know the spot is part of a larger Get Happy campaign featuring Jimmy Cliff.
The first ad in the series featured the artist singing his rendition of "C'Mon, Get Happy," complete with a little help from some notorious unhappy YouTube stars. You can take a look at the new ad before it airs below, along with the complete press release for a little more background.

VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.

VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.
