1978 VW BUS "THE MOST EXTRAS AND AFTER MARKET ADD ONS AND ACCESSORIES ON A VW BUS ONLINE!"
This girl has been my love and passion over the past 4 years. I bought her in September 2009 in Tacoma, WA. The owner at that time told me he was to old to drive anymore and that he only used it on Sundays to go fishing. I 100% believe the odometer for that reason has not turned over and that the 52,970 miles as of this posting is the actual miles of the Bus. I drove her down the coast from Washington to my house in Manhattan Beach, CA. What an amazing drive on the Pacific Coast Highway! Only a VW Bus can offer that kind of breathtaking views. It was garaged at my home in Manhattan Beach for 3 years while I restored her and all the engine work and updating was done at Automeister. If you live in Southern California you know of or have been to Automeister and they are the best in the business. All interior and exterior add ons, replacements, and accessories were purchased at J Bugs, Bus Depot, and GoWesty and audio work was done at Manhattan Audio in Hermosa Beach, CA. I have all receipts and invoices for all the purchases and work done on the vehicle. I cut no corners on restoring, updating, and upgrading the bus. There is nothing you need to do after you purchase this vehicle but get in and start your own memories and adventures. Currently the VW Bus is garaged in Celebration, FL where Walt Disney World is located. I can work with you and have it loaded on a truck to be shipped to you(I recommend Red Carpet Transporters). I can also meet you in the Tampa Bay/ Orlando area. The pictures and video pretty much say it all about this VW Bus. For fun over the last 4 years I look on ebay to look at other bus's and I have not seen one other bus with all the extras I have put into mine. I have a perfect rating on ebay for over 16 years so bid and buy with complete confidence. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. My facebook page is Brandon Dean Tecklenburg and I have a couple photo albums with just the VW Bus pictures so feel free to friend me so you can look at more pictures. I have also added 3 youtube videos so you can view and listen to more information on the Bus: http://youtu.be/REw_xLqGIKY http://youtu.be/6wiTdzaatCg http://youtu.be/ECeRB7lL31s VW BUS from 2010 to 2013 has had these updates, upgrades and new parts: new clarion stereo system with fm/am/cd/aux/usb with xm/sirius ready stereo new steering horn new front seat floor mat new interior glove box new passenger door handle new front seat visors new front rear and side view mirrors new two drink cup holder where ash tray used to be new stick shift new westybox/storage box that goes in between front seats for a third seat front dash a/c vents or fresh air vents bus is outfitted for air conditioning, just needs new condenser. newly put in two more cigarette lighters in the dash for power outlets two electric heaters for camping long power cord to hook up when camping to electric outlet brand new padding and carpet tv/dvd combo with digital cable box and antenna working sink, furnace, two burner stove, ice box snow tire chains jumper cables battery jumper two new matching thorw pillows coleman propane tanks to use for furnance/ stove/ or bbq grill bbq grill for out door grilling two oscillating fans that plug into outlets 800 watt power outlet 400 watt power outlet marine battery and relay switch for drying camping and tailgating 4 coleman lanterns extra high mileage quarts of oil 12 x 12 green tent to go right outside of bus green tarp for outdoor flooring original green curtain to wrap around bay windows to block sun and for privacy. front tire cover vw bus table tailgating grill set key gas lock new oil cooler new cooler seals new dip stick boot new exhaust gaskets new turn signal switch all new cv joints new nose cone new axle boot kit new engine compartment seal new shift bushing new shocks new suspension and alignment new fuel hose new fuel filter new clamps and shock bolt new water pump and switch new fresh air hoses new muffler new westfalia tent new interior head board/ headliner thru out the bus new hankook tires new california legal catalytic converter new alternator new regulator exterior touch up paint original owners manual all receipts and invoices to be given to new owner I will accept full payment and it must be cleared before Bus title and keys are handed over.

Volkswagen planning Up! hybrid model using XL1 powertrain
Sun, 24 Feb 2013Even though we've finally gotten a look at the production version of the 261-mile per gallon Volkswagen XL1, this aero-shaped two-seater was never intended for high-volume sales. Fortunately, it sounds like the same isn't true for the car's diesel plug-in hybrid powertrain, which, according to a report from AutoCar, could make its way under the hood of another Volkswagen model: the Up! minicar (shown above).
A potential Up! Hybrid would likely be able to return some of the same impressive fuel economy numbers as the XL1, but it would be a more realistic car with more passenger space and greater production capacity. The hand-built XL1 will use a 47-horsepower, two-cylinder TDI engine paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and the 27-hp electric motor and lithium-ion battery helps deliver an all-electric driving range of 31 miles.
One of the core pillars of the XL1's design is its lightweight construction with a 1752-pound curb weight, which makes the Up! a perfect recipient for using this powertrain since it weighs just 300 pounds more. The report says that the Up! Hybrid is still in the developmental phase, so a production version isn't expected for at least another 18 months.
Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.
Porsche 911 with VW turbodiesel prepares for LeMons assault
Fri, 21 Mar 2014LeMons racing is a wonderful example that setting limits can actually breed creativity. The series mandates that all entries must cost $500, not counting safety equipment, and that cap forces teams to be ingenious in how they build a racecar. Take for example this diesel-powered Porsche 911, which its creators have dubbed Ferkel the Nein-11, that will be racing in the Sears Pointless race this weekend in Sonoma, California.
This Frankenstein combines a 911 chassis that was originally bought just for its European powertrain and a Volkswagen TDI diesel engine mounted in the rear. After deciding the shell could still be of some use, the team decided to go racing. "We began brainstorming what replacement drivetrain to use for maximum offense and there was really only one answer: a diesel," said Philipp von Weitershausen, one of the team captains, to Jalopnik. They bought a 1998 Jetta TDI on the cheap and started figuring out a way to hack the engine into the bay. To pay respect to the donor, the VW's trunk was highly modified (and drilled) and grafted onto the back of Ferkel.
This team isn't a newcomer to LeMons. Its last car was a classic VW Beetle with a Subaru engine and dual controls, named Ferdinand the Bug, which could be driven from the left or right side. It's quite a sight.
