This is a one of a kind camper van.  It started as a great one owner Winnebago camper van and was professionally converted to Tdi power by grease works in Corvallis, Oregon. It’s got a built up AHU/ALH/1Z hybrid engine with about 150HP . It’s built to deliver power without sacrificing the diesels longevity. The body had 258k miles at time of the conversion. Now has about 20kmiles on performance built engine, rebuilt and properly diesel geared 5speed tranny and all other moving parts (CV axles, steering gear, wheel bearings etc.). Late Passat aluminum 16"rims. Lifted 2.5”, bill stein shocks, nice Nokian van rated tires, mufflerectomy. It has new yakima racks and a pretty large cargo basket. Mounted to that is a 75watt siemens solar panel with smart charge controller and 1600watts AC converter for computer or other gear.  The system charges whenever there’s light and keeps both (aux and main) batteries topped off. Custom stereo system with 6" sub built into the console in between driver and passenger seat, 6 new pioneer speakers, dual amps, separate audio controller for quick fade, subwoofer or tone level adjustments. Custom made european real sheepskin covers on front seats. European bull bar with high intensity LED floods. A/C, CD, MP3 and iPod hookups. Scan gauge and EGT gauge installed near radio for full info. 30-35miles/gallon. Biodiesel ready. Here in CA you won’t need a smog for this as it’s pre ’98.  Since it doesn’t have a cat or muffler it sounds great with the turbo whistling. If you step on it it will smoke some, it’s a diesel :-)

The camper aspect of the van is pretty much as any other winnebago conversion. It has the fresh and grey water tank hooked up to the sink and little rinse shower out back. 2 Burner stove top, 3-way fridge and heater work off of the mounted propane tank. The heater runs on 12 Volt and is great to heat up the van on cold camping mornings. It comes with 2 foldable tables that stow away nicely behind drivers seat. There are 2 bench seats in back which can be taken out if needed. The pop top creates a Queen size bed spread with zipping screened windows, lower bench seat folds down to a full size bed. 

I’m the second owner. It came with an additional seatbelt attached to the back of the passenger seat, which the previous owner installed to secure a wheel chair for a family member. 

The overall condition of the van is great. Everything is fully functioning. Cosmetically it has a few slight blemishes on the outside body as you can see in the video and pics.

With a possible fee I’ll accommodate pick up at the SMF airport or any other travel/ pick up arrangements if you arrange it with me before. 

I’m offering it locally too so I might take down the ad here if it sells local.


Thanks for looking and happy bidding.

VW using other manufacturing locations as leverage in battle with TN [w/video]

Sat, 26 Apr 2014

We've reached a new step in the ongoing drama at Volkswagen's factory in Chattanooga, TN. The United Auto Workers recently dropped its opposition to the union vote and agreed that it wouldn't hold another ballot for at least a year. Now, the new question becomes where VW is going to build its forthcoming midsize SUV.
Earlier, it had been considered all but certain that the SUV, likely a production version of the CrossBlue concept (pictured above), would be built in Tennessee. However, it seems the Chattanooga factory might have competition to produce it. In emails obtained by The Detroit News, VW's lawyer wrote to the Tennessee economic development department in January saying, "While we understand there are some 'non-deal' issues that are causing a delay in the TN solution, VW has been successful in reaching agreement on terms at the alternative locations."
As previously reported, the state of Tennessee allegedly offered VW about $300 million in incentives to build the vehicle there and create an estimated 1,350 jobs, but it later rescinded the deal. Newly leaked documents from NewsChannel 5 (WTVF-TV) in Nashville allegedly show just how close that offer was to being completed. It appears that VW actually sent the government the first draft of a memorandum of understanding agreeing to the incentives, but the state removed the offer in late January.

VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines

Sun, 16 Feb 2014

The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.

VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."
