Wonderful 1969 Vw Bus
Many Upgrades & New Parts Added to enhance your driving buzz! I aquired this bus locally in S. Florida. It was originally from California. The body was in excellent shape for its age. This Bus received a full work up from top to bottom. I will do a rundown of all work performed. I have driven it for over a year now. All finishing work such as paint and suspension etc were all performed within a few months ago. Engine: Engine is original stock 1600 single port. The engine was rebuilt buy the previous owner. They did not detail the tins and components but the motor runs excellent and drips no oil ( if thats possible). I installed an original bosch vacuum distributor I also installed a new carb to air cleaner rubber neck. New Pic 30/31 Solex Oem carb. The battery is new and the voltage reg is a new bosch. The engine is correct and the way it was in 69. The transmission was upgraded with a rebuilt late model trans out of a late 70's bus. It has a better ring and pinion and it shifts smoother too. Much better trans than stock. Suspension: The entire suspension system is new. Front: New Disc Brakes off of a 72 Bus. New rotors calipers and pads. New tie rods. New Ball Joints top and bottom. New drag link, New hoses for brakes New snubbers and sway bar bushings, Kyb Shocks. Basically everything was replaced with New. The Rear: The same with the rear. New Cv Joints, Rebuilt Drum brake system, Kyb Shocks , hoses, etc. All German parts were used, no chinese stuff. The Body, A new paint job was added. Premium Primer and Topcoat. Refinished in Original Montana Red With Cloud White. Seals: All New Seals Throughout: All windows, slider, hatch, engine, lenses, etc etc. The side vent windows were replaced with original VW Sliders Out of a late model bus. Really nice air flow and hard to find. A New deluxe Trim Kit was added to the perimeter of the belt line. It's stunning and really sets this bus off. The glass is in excellent shape on this bus The entire undercarriage was refinished in the stock grey that was used at the factory. It was also primered. A Custom original style stereo was added. At the cost of $240. It looks old but went into the stock uncut dash and it has usb and aux hookup with digital display. Super cool. Alpine front speakers and kicker in the rear speakers under the seat set in original seat base plate. Interior: Way Cool interior custom done by me. Door panels were a new kit covered in a dashiki type print. Original arm rests are still attached. A 48 star 1930's flag hangs from the ceiling. The original headliner is still there. It is in decent shape but has a couple holes. New hatch covers installed. New front rubber mat, Original mid section rubber mat is there and in good Shape. A nice multicovered rug is over it. Very cool spiral beads hang over the walk through entrance way. The rear seat was recovered in original smurf print material. The inside is way cool and really takes you back. The custom Hippy print curtains also set this bus way off. Back to driving. This bus drives absolutely excellent. It tracks straight at 65 and never lets up. Suspension is better than new and is super reliable turnkey everytime. I have added 4 new white wall tires, mounted on original 15" Vw rims off an early split window. There is also a spare with original Vw Cover. The original jack is also included. All guages work and all functions work too. I installed a custom Tach mounted to the dash. It can be removed and I did not cut anything. Wipers, all lights, turn signals, hazards, horn, etc etc work properly. It is really a one of a kind bus and whomever wins will be very happy. No dissapointments here. This bus is everything and more. Many cool upgrades and many many new parts. A lot of time and money was put in to restoring this bus. The paint is super smooth and was polished to perfection Being sold at No Reserve.

2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition brings exclusivity to the granddaddy of hot hatches
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The Volkswagen booth at this year's Chicago Auto Show was filled with various special edition models of the Beetle and GTI. In addition to the GTI Wolfsburg Edition, the Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition helps to wrap up the 2013 model year as VW readies the all-new MkVII Golf next year.
Only 3,000 of the GTI Driver's Edition models will be produced in four-door body style only, and the available color palette will be limited to just Candy White, Carbon Steel Gray and Deep Black. The package will come standard with the GTI's Sunroof and Navigation package, and it will add unique features such as the 18-inch "Laguna" wheels, a golf-ball shift knob, partial leather seats and red-stitching on the carpeted floor mats. Buyers of this package will also get a certificate of authenticity and some GTI swag such as a hat, keychain and parking sign.
Starting price for the 2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition is $29,695 with the six-speed manual and $30,795 if you choose the DSG - both prices exclude destination charges.
Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Meet Brad, Sheena and Nacho
Driving through China is a pricey proposition. The couple will need to pony up a staggering $19,514 just to cover the fees.
Brad and Sheena Van Orden are in the midst of a life-defining campaign to travel around the world, and they're doing it in a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon custom built for the occasion. The past 15 months have seen the couple quit their jobs with Gore-Tex and drive from Arizona to the very southern tip of Argentina after spending a full two years saving and preparing for the trek. Now they're in southern Asia gearing up for the next leg of their journey.
VW agrees to halt next-gen rally car development to help others stay in WRC
Sat, 22 Jun 2013Volkswagen has petitioned the FIA to hold on to the current specifications for cars in the World Rally Championship, according to Autosport.com. The move is evidently an effort to keep as many competitors in the sport as possible, despite the fact that using the current spec racers may actually hurt Volkswagen's chances at winning. The three factory teams currently competing in the WRC are at the end of a three-year homologation cycle at the end of 2013, and new cars are expected to bow next year. But developing new racers could cost as much as $4.7 million.
That price tag would put M-Sport (which fields Ford racers) out of the WRC game for 2014 and would put Citroën participation in question as well. VW has already begun work on the next iteration of its Polo R WRC, and the hatch has nabbed four wins in six rounds this season. Now it appears that car won't bow until at least 2015. The FIA has officially agreed to freeze homologation of new WRC cars until the end of next season.
