Thank you for viewing this  1967 VW Bus. This bus has spents it's life in central California. It is in great shape although it is not going to win you any pebble beach  first place trophys. It was restored to drive around town or to the beach. Perhaps drive it to work everyday like i did .
Whatever you want to do with it.
The engine runs very good, it starts right up, and you can drive it pretty much anywhere as long as you take your time getting there as it is . The Odometer reads 80,000 and it has a Clean and Clear, California title. Overall this is bus very solid, does have some rust surface rust here and there and a few paint flaws but all the rusted out sections were replaced and re-welded in. There is one exception the inner nose panel which does nothing and no one sees still needs to be bought or made and welded in to be a perfect resto. just a reminder what you see is what you get. The stereo, roof rack, fog lights, slow moving magnetic sign on the back, ECT are all included in the sale of the bus. Note: all windows open by sliding, pop-out or safari style. All seals for the windows, doors and engine tin are all new. They cost me a small fortune and were a pain putting in let me tell you. I saved you the hassles. The sides are all pop-out style, the doors are sliders and front and back are safari's. 
Feel the breeze when you cruz down the road!

Mechanical: This bus runs great. The engine runs good, no noise or issues.  It just adjusted the valves and timming. The carb is a new 30 pict and the choke works good. It has a new fuel pump, fuel lines and filter.  It has a new eletronic distrubitor with new cap and rotor and new spark plugs. Overall the engine is in good shape. Compression in the engine is good with a year on a full engine rebuild. rebuilt heads as well then.  
 
The transmission, shifts nice, all 4 gears, are smooth as well reverse. The clutch was replaced last year with a heavy duty one and heavy duty fork and throw-out bearing. It has new red axle boots as well. The transmission feels good, no slop, and stays in the gears, no popping out. The brakes were redone a while back, new rubber lines, and the brakes stop very good, no leaks from the cylinders. Overall, mechanically it is in great shape, drive it anywhere. With that said, be prepared, its a VW they always need adjustments, but they run forever. The tires are newer as well, all match, and have about 80 % tread on them, and are worn evenly. There are two extra rims with new tires and hubcaps. the front end has new ball joints and steering dampner, new shocks all around and recently greased up beam. Heater and defroster for the windshield work great by the way.
 
Electricial:   The Headlights, taillights, fog lights, wipers and turn signals all work. All the interior lights work as do all the gauges. The gas gauge works but is not perfect. It shows half of what's there in the tank. Might need new sending unit.The Alternator and oil pressure lights both work on the dash and so does the horn. The horn is a german air raid siren and can be switched but is fun.The dimmer switch is broke at the stem but switches high and low. There is a newer JVC cd player and with USB and audio inputs for whatever you want to play through the stereo. Also has a 100 watt amp hidden under the rear seat with a 15" rockford fosgate sub with a Q logic box. Has two 6x9's in the rear and infinity 6" woofers and tweeters in the front doors. sounds sweet with no rattles!

The body on it is in good shape in general. It has a few dings and paint imperfections, but nothing major. The nose is in good shape with the lower outter portion replaced when restored. Drivers door is perfect but the passenger door has some small rust holes on the bottom. Doors close good except passenger door needs a little more umph to close than drivers door. Cargo doors are good and recently repaired as along with the front and rear floors, lower valances on the sides, battery tray, drip rail sections, wheel wells, hatch door, ect. Olny the inner nose valance is left to replace and it was out of stock when i was rebuilding this bus so that's why it's left. Easy fix and does nothing structually.

Interior is restored and used for a few years since replaced but overall usable and decent.  The headliner and door panels are wood panels i made. Overall you can see the general interior condition from the pictures. This bus has front and rear safari wondows installed. All the squre windows on the sides open.  Glass is decent and no cracks and all OEM German serkuit. All doors lock and have all oem keys to the doors.

Recharge Wrap-up: First VW e-Golf in US up for auction, meet Project Ain't Fuelin'

Tue, Oct 14 2014

Volkswagen is auctioning the first e-Golf in the US to raise money for Global Green USA. The auction is live now, and bidding goes until 3:30 pm Eastern on October 29. Global Green USA will use the proceeds to help find solutions to climate change, and the winner will get to enjoy emissions-free driving before the car e-Golf goes on sale in November. If you don't live in or near California, Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington DC, you might want to sit this one out, as the car will only be available to pick up at dealers in those initial launch states. Go bid now, or learn more in the press release below. Berlin, Germany will use Solaris electric buses for a complete bus line in 2015. The downtown line will run 3.8 miles between Zoologischer Garten Station and Sudkreuz. The transport operator Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) will use four of the Solaris e-buses for the test, each about 39 feet long. The buses use a 200-kilowatt inductive charging system at the ends of the line to recharge in just a few minutes. The government-funded test runs through 2016, but BVG pans to use the electric buses beyond that timeline. Read more at Green Car Congress. The American Petroleum Institute (API) is worried that the Obama administration will use ethanol requirements to influence a Senate race in Iowa. In the midst of a close race against Republican Joni Ernst, Representative Bruce Braley, the Democratic candidate, is urging Obama to reject a cut in the Renewable Fuel Standard. The November election approaches, meanwhile the EPA continues to delay issuing an ethanol requirement for the year, with or without its proposed 16-percent reduction. Rejecting the cut could help get farmers and ethanol producers on the side of Braley. "We are very concerned that the signals we are seeing from the administration is that the political calculations are outweighing sound fuels policy," says API's Bob Greco. Read more at Businessweek. Project Ain't Fuelin' aims to fix up old cars to return them to original fuel economy, and then surpass it. Episode 3 of Valvoline's Under The Hood video series features Daniel Gray of MPGomatic, who is doing just that to a 1999 Honda Civic HX Coupe. He aims to get 50 mpg out of the old Civic by tuning it up, tinkering with the aerodynamics, switching to more efficient tires and other modifications.

VW chair says component cost decrease keeps him confident of EV success

Tue, Mar 25 2014

Volkswagen AG is in the middle of implementing a comprehensive electric vehicle strategy, one that we've been documenting for a long time. The Group stands ready to offer dozens of plug-in vehicles in the coming years if it feels there is sufficient demand and believes that selling a million EVs in Germany by 2020 is reasonable. That would be a solid number, but remember that VW sold over 5,923,000 passenger cars around the world last year, and the group as a whole sold over 9.7 million. At the company's annual Media Conference and Investor Conference in Berlin recently, the chairman of the board of VW AG - surrounded by some decidedly non-green examples of the VW Group's vehicles (some absurd new Bugatti, for example) - took some time to put the company's EV plans into focus. The upshot is that Dr. Martin Winterkorn is still guiding his electromobility ship into new waters, saying that "many more [plug-in] models will follow." Winterkorn said there are three main reasons he is confident in the ability of VW (and Audi and Porsche, at the very least) to push EV sales upward. Batteries are getting better, he said, and if the ranges can be extended, then customers are happy. But the real secret lies in reducing component costs. He said (as translated): It is important to look at the cost of the components: the battery technology, the electric motor and the electric components. Whenever you go into volume production, you of course have economies of scale. In two to three years' time, if we are able to achieve the goals we are setting for ourselves with cost and reach sufficient volume, I do believe that we can achieve two to three percent [market share] within VW Group. So, hitting a million EVs by 2020 is reachable. With the e-Golf and the e-Up off to excellent sales starts, we're willing to be confident as well.

VW boss confirms Subaru-aping Golf Alltrack for US

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Subaru needs to watch out, because the Japanese brand with a utilitarian image has a big bull's eye on its back. Not only is Acura considering going 100-percent all-wheel drive in a bid to mimic the successful automaker, Volkswagen has just confirmed that the Golf Alltrack is coming to the US as another competitor for Subaru's popular Outback crossover. Volkswagen Group of America CEO Michael Horn has confirmed the addition of the higher-riding, all-wheel drive version of the Golf SportWagen to Automotive News, indicating that the model will arrive in the US in 2016. "That's what our dealers, our customers, are asking us for," he said to the industry publication. The Golf Alltrack, which debuted at the Paris Motor Show in early October, has an extra 0.75 inches of ride height and protective black cladding all the way around. Its biggest mechanical differentiator from other Golfs is its Haldex all-wheel drive system, a setup that can completely unhook from the rear axle when not needed to save fuel. In Europe, the Alltrack is available with a turbocharged 1.8-liter with 178 horsepower and two diesels offering between 109hp and 182 hp. However, Horn made no mention of likely powertrains for the US. Horn tells Automotive News that all-wheel drive tooling is currently being installed at the Puebla, Mexico, factory where the standard Golf Sportwagen is built. VW might have tipped its hand about this possibility several months ago when press shots of the wagon were released for the US with TDI and 4Motion badges. Horn says he expects even the front-wheel drive version to be a sales hit here, suggesting it may eventually account for 50 percent of the Golf range's volume.
