1960 Volkswagen Bus Single Cab. Very Solid, Straight, And Rust Free. on 2040-cars
Henderson, Nevada, United States
|
I have an awesome 1960 survivor single cab. This was recently purchased from the second owner who had it since 1965! Always in the high desert so virtuality rust free. Even the battery tray is not rusted. Hard to find a bus this nice. It's been resprayed once from what I was told. The owner did a complete restoration on it like a decade ago and just let it sit ever since. Motor runs smoothe, tranny shifts nice, and brakes feel like new. New wiring harness and rubber throughout. Interior was refurbished with black vinyl seat and door/kick panels and new rubber mat. The cardboard panels above are sagging slightly but were new. The body is unbelievable. If you look underneath its as rust free and straight as they come. Looks to me like all original metal underneath and nothing needs replacing. The gates are beautiful and bed has been used and has dents and dings but not bad. Drives nice and turns heads. You can pay less for one but will pay alot more in the long run. Has new shocks and battery. Needs new tires. They hold air and I have driven around on them, but they need replacing from dry rot.
The drivers side rear bottom corner was replaced when restored, but done right. The rear apron should probably be replaced. There is a little wrinkling on the left engine compartment metal (see in photos). And there is one spot of isolated rust right under the driver door behind the wheel well.(in photos) This is a very common area for busses and just needs a small patch or leave it as is. The metal behind it is completely solid. |

VW redoes A-ha's 'Take On Me' music video
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Volkswagen has been responsible for its fair share of witty, clever commercials. "Tiny Vader" might be the most popular, but somehow, we think this newest spot will find a big audience. VW delivers not so much a cover, but a reimagining, of 1980s Norwegian pop band A-ha's famous music video for "Take On Me."
The original opens with an animated motorcycle race, which is revealed to be part of a comic book. VW's version replaces the motorcycle with a Passat, which strikes us as an oddly sober choice when there are cars like the GTI and Beetle in VW's portfolio. But never mind that - take a look down below for the entire 46-second spot. For reference, we've also included the original music video. And if you aren't a fan of the musical stylings of A-ha, just think, VW's choice of 1980s music could have been much worse.
Witness this insane 736-hp VW Golf immolate its front tires
Mon, 11 Mar 2013There's torque steer and then there's what we'll from now on dub "The Boba," as in Boba Kettler. The German tuner has a way with the Volkswagen Golf, and the MkI example you see above has been touched with 736 horsepower - that's right, 96 more ponies than a new SRT Viper, all trying to get to ground through those two front wheels.
The 2.0-liter, 16-valve engine has an 8,800 rpm redline and is aided by a Garrett GTX3582R turbocharger shoving 50 psi through the internals. Other upgrades include a new ECU (natch) and a six-speed 'box among other treats. The rubber is Toyo R888s - street-legal competition tires. The result is enough smoke for three Chinese New Years when the lights go green. Indeed, the standing start isn't its forte, but it can apparently get from 62 miles per hour to 124 mph in five seconds.
Watch it go in the video below. And know that this isn't even Boba's best work; he's got a 900-hp MkII Golf that'll do 0-62 mph in 2.3 seconds.
Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively.
