1969 Volkswagen Westphalia Camper on 2040-cars
Wallingford, Connecticut, United States
|
I am selling my 1969 VW Westphalia. I have several other classic VW's and it's time to thin the heard. I owned this camper about 12 years. In all the time I owned this VW it was always stored indoors. Some of the new part are generator, shroud, battery, carburetor, steering column, breaks, motor mounts, oil screen and gaskets.
There is roughly 12k miles on a completely rebuilt transmission and roughly 17k miles on a rebuilt 1600cc engine. This camper runs excellent and can be used as a daily driver. The exterior is in great shape. There are no rips in the pop top canvas. I had the rear bumper refinished several years ago. I will admit, I am not happy with the job the body shop did on the bumper. They re-mounted it great but the paint job seemed rushed. When I purchased there was some bondo in the front end. I had it ground out and replaced with sheet metal. The interior includes a 7 gallon pump sink, icebox refrigerator, kitchenette, two closets, port o let, and storage. It sleeps two adults and one child under 60 lbs. The cabin interior was in near mint condition when I purchased. I paid a seamstress to create coverings for all mattresses, table and counter tops in an effort to add a comfortable flair and preserve history. I also have privacy shades made for both the front and back. The ceiling of this camper also contains nostalgic photographs from the early sixties to early 90's. They have all been placed there from previous owners and contain the likes of Jim Morrison, Andy Warhol, Janis Joplin and bunches more. I never had any of them authenticated but will leave it all in its home. Okay so now some of the things needed. I never finished weather stripping the driver side. The child hammock and back of driver seat have small fabric tears. One of the pop top clamps above the windshield needs to be replaced. I think that's about it. Please contact me with any questions. I will help the best I can but buyer assumes all shipping costs and arrangements. |

VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years
Sun, 26 May 2013It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.
New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
VW announces recall of 26,000 2014 models with 1.8T engines
Tue, 22 Apr 2014Volkswagen has followed up on a stop-sale order from earlier this month, announcing a voluntarily recall of 26,400 vehicles that are powered by the brand's 1.8-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The new mill replaced the despised 2.5-liter five-cylinder in the Jetta, Passat, Beetle and Beetle Convertible last year. Weirdly, though, of the 26,452 units covered in the recall, only 1,655 are customer vehicles.
According to VW, the affected models were built between February 1 and April 6 of this year, and feature bad O-ring seals in the transmission oil cooler. Apparently, the faulty O-rings could cause a fluid leak, as they won't seal between the oil cooler and transmission. VW is blaming a material change from a supplier for the problem.
There have been no fires, injuries, accidents or fatalities relating to this issue, which VW will be fixing free of charge. Customers will need to report to dealers to have the O-rings replaced.
