1967 Tin Top Walk Through EZ Camper. Originally delivered to San Fransisco on February 24th 1967. I chose to do a preservation restoration on this van as it was in such good condition and I wanted to keep it as original as possible. This van spent its life in California and southern Oregon where I purchased it. Rebuilt 1600cc motor, rebuilt freeway flyer transmission. New front floor corners. Solid dry Californian survivor. Interior is in excellent condition and mostly original. Previous owner owned a VW shop so needless to say this van has been maintained, cared for and loved. Every thing works. Runs and drives like a new van.... I have the decoded M-Code plate information listed below.

Motor/Transmission- Very low miles on rebuilt 1600cc motor, rebuilt carb, new battery, alternator, vac hoses, fuel lines, throttle cable. Engine bay is extremely clean. Aluminum finned oil pan, new heater boxes (heater works very good) new heater cables, voltage regulator, empi exhaust/muffler. Rebuilt free way flyer transmission, rebuilt reduction boxes.This van has just had a complete tune up.

Paint/Body- One repaint over OG paint (pearl white L-87). Super strait body, perfect door and body gaps, no accidents or collisions. Sand blasted and painted bumpers and rims.Super solid and dry bus. Brand new front floor corners professionally installed. Solid dog legs, rear corners, gutters, cargo doors, front floors, cargo floor, jack points, inner rockers are perfect. No rust on undercarriage. Minimal rust on left and right lower rockers only. I inspected the nose closely after I pulled the kick panels out. Nose is solid with no rust or any collisions.

Interior- Brand new front seat upholstery, Dash is perfect and uncut, brand new kick and door panels cut out of 1/8 inch birch wood and painted to the factory color, texture and finish. These panels are much better than the cheap fiber board door panels being sold on the samba and won't warp over time.... Most of the interior is completely original and in excellent condition as seen in the pics. The original wood headliner is absolutely perfect. The rear camping seat upholstery is in excellent condition. There is a tear on the lower back seat which I covered up with a nice blanket to keep it from getting worst. The original and hard to find spice rack/cupboard is in excellent condition. The interior paint is in great condition. I have the rare storm windows  which install were the screens go. These are always missing and great to have if your camping or driving in colder climates. All electrical works perfect. All lights, dash lights, camp lights, fuel gauge ect, ect work as they should. No electrical issues what so ever. Meticulously maintained by previous owner.

Other- New dual circuit master cylinder, new brake soft lines, new brakes, wheel cylinders, shoes, brand new left and right tie rod ends, alignment, newer tires, original jack and lug wrench, rare double pang storm windows, original m code plate and California state ID badge. Repacked wheel bearings all the way around. 1967 is the first year of 12 volt electrical system.

Rare survivor Californian tin top walk through survivor. Many hours went into the preservation of the bus. This was a labor of love. Every thing is in excellent working. Every dash, dome, camping light ect works perfect. This camper is ready for cross country driving and or camping/traveling adventurers. All mechanical issues have been addressed down to the smallest detail.. Excellent investment quality VW Camper bus. I tried to list every thing but know I left out some things. Feel free to call any time with questions.

Volkswagen considering a four-door, four-seat XL1

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

According to a report in Autocar, Volkswagen might have more in mind for the XL1 than mining it for advances to grace the next-generation Golf. Aiming to fight the Honda FCEV due for public consumption next year, we're told VW executives have put a four-door, four-seater version of the XL1 - it could be called XL2 - on the drawing board. The impetus is said to come from the top, with VW Group chairman Ferdinand Piëch intent on staying in the deep end of "super-efficent vehicles."
Autocar suspects the necessary changes could raise the weight of the car from 1,749 pounds to 2,068 pounds, which would make it four pounds less than the 2,072-pound Up! we drove a few years ago. Crucially, however, the mag thinks the extra capacity wouldn't change the two-seater's 310-mile-per-gallon rating, with tech tweaks and the aerodynamic benefit of a longer car offsetting the weight. Speculation is that the back seats would be staggered like the fronts in order to maintain the XL1's overall profile.
We recently heard about another XL1 variant that's gone off the radar entirely, the Ducati-engined XLR that we thought we'd see at the Geneva Motor Show and that was said to be going into production, so this one could go the same way. The biggest hurdle to making such an idea a reality, though, could be the price: the current XL1 costs 110,000 euros ($146,116). If VW really is going to compete with the Honda FCEV and the Toyota FCV - $70,000 in Japan - that might be where it wants to start.

Watch the VW E-Golf get made

Fri, Jun 13 2014

If you've ever been on a tour of an automotive factory, you know how mesmerizing it can be to see humans and robots work together to build our four-wheeled friends. The swift automation, the cleanliness, the trained hands deftly fitting pieces together and watchful eyes inspecting every piece of the car, it's all quite impressive, especially if the vehicle is one you, as an observer, are fond of. Even just seeing a fresh, gleaming badge being applied to immaculately painted sheet metal is enough to curl ones toes. Such is the case with this video from of the E-Golf being pieced together in the Volkswagen's Wolfsburg plant. There's no narration or music - just the sounds of production - so it's easy to follow the singular motions that go into the process without distraction, with a slight sense of actually being on the floor. This solo video is only seven minutes long, so it's not quite the epic that was the BMW i3 production series. Therefore, we miss a lot of the initial build, such as pressing the sheet metal, painting, and putting together a lot of the inner workings. What is refreshing to see is how much of the final touches of the electric Golf are done by hand using actual hand tools (and with typical German efficiency). There's even a person riding a bicycle through the factory at one point, which is common at Wolfsburg and also rather quaint. Enjoy the video below, and if you have a suggestion for a good soundtrack to go along with it, sound off in the comments. This content is hosted by a third party.
