1969 vw bus.  

USA originally sold in Los Angeles
type 2 transporter baywindow microbus
7 passenger walk thru
It has a strong type 1 dual carb, dual glass pack exhaust that purrs
well maintained with fresh oil turnkey ready to go, runs drives and stops good.
Breaks were just bled and filled with new fluid
It has been a pleasure cruiser for me that you could use as a daily driver.
Being an original west coast bus it is mostly dry...has had some small rust issues that come with almost any 40+year old bus.  Nothing you could put your foot thru on the sheet metal, frame and underchasis is solid minimal rust 
Sitting on brandnew rubber, 2.5" white walls with new beauty rings and moon caps. 
New headliner so ALL window seals except rear hatch been replaced. New windshield installed too.
front door seals are brand new and in fact the doors have to be shut harder than previously because they arent even broken in yet.
I bought replacement shocks, but the ones on are solid and didnt need replacement
motor mounts are good

What you might call the bad or expected:
 could use ball joints replaced if desired
I broke the antenna when covering the bus from a storm so no amfm
driver seat bottom has tear
rear seat not mounted, I take it out most of the time
small ding in the driver rear corner behind the bumper, was there previously not sure why but in my opinion is minor so I never spent the money to fix it.
key was jb welded into the ignition, I have the replacement to change it out.  

She runs great...turns heads and 99% of the drivers out there give respect on the road while driving.  
I can help with international shipping, nearest port is New Jersey, maybe Norfolk VA??
Please only bid if planning to buy. I have been honest in my description and only hope to have a smooth sale with a happy new bus owner. Raleigh is the nearest airport, I can pick you up if needed.

I have a few pics available to upload, if there is a specific area you want to see, send me a message.


On Jul-20-13 at 09:20:29 PDT, seller added the following information:

I have received a few requests for my reserve price, also if I will accept any offers to end the bidding, and my answer is respectfully, no. This bus will sell here and I will ride out the length of the auction. It will not get taken down early...thank you for your interest.  I have removed my local listing and am selling thru ebay so I dont have to do the test drive, tire kicker, "I have half now and the rest in payments?" kind of scenario...I do not have the time with my current schedule to deal with this, thank you for your understanding.

VW Group plan puts Porsche in charge of a 'super-premium' division

Tue, Sep 11 2018

An Automobile report looks into what's happening on the organizational and technical sides of the Volkswagen Group, and what those changes could mean for the premium brands. The wide-angle view is that Porsche appears to have been anointed to "coordinate the future activities" at Audi, Bentley, Bugatti and Lamborghini. Audi would cede Lamborghini guardianship to Stuttgart, and Ducati — via a new concern called Ducati Enterprises — would become the shepherd for VW's other Italian investments. Executives target Jan. 1, 2019, to complete the reshuffle. VW wants to save a boodle by tying up four of its five top-tier brands, and putting the one with the highest ROI in charge. Porsche, within its own house, wants to reduce expenditures by $2.3 billion per year over for four years, the savings already earmarked for improving internal processes like R&D and production. Having Porsche share those gains as well as lead development of platforms, components and future-tech strategies for the sister sports car brands could benefit everyone. In the near-term, the brands have their own plans: Bugatti CEO Stephan Winkelmann is said to want a Chiron Superleggera, a roofless and "completely reskinned" Chiron Aperta, and a track-only Chiron SS. The Superleggera could take the Chiron Sport's and Divo's Jenny Craig routines even further. The Aperta seems a natural successor to the Veyron Grand Sport, a natural evolution of the recently introduced Sky View roof, and a reskin might include numerous Divo cues. It's also said Bugatti's considering "an all-electric high-end model" in conjunction with Porsche, Rimac, and Dallara, but name one supercar or hypercar manufacturer that isn't considering a lightning-fast EV. Lamborghini, deep into work on follow-ups for the Huracan and Aventador, might get a bit of a bump with the new plan. The carbon "monofuselage" for the next V12 flagship is said to be too far developed and too complex to scrap. It puts two electric motors on the front axle, batteries in the middle, and a naturally aspirated V12 with around 770 horsepower plus another e-motor with 402 horsepower in back. The Huracan is said to get a version of the same carbon architecture at the moment, but the corporate reorganization might press pause on it. Automobile says options include continuing the Huracan/ Audi R8 twinning, but that depends on Audi saying "Ja" to a third-gen R8 with Lamborghini bones.

VW spending $10 million on EV infrastructure, calls on Congress for help

Tue, Feb 10 2015

It must be the season of big EV infrastructure announcements. In the last few days, we've heard from Bollore in France, PG&E in California and now VW. The German automaker says it will spend a total of $10 million on electric vehicle charging infrastructure by 2016. That includes the previously announced ChargePoint investment VW made with BMW and work the automaker is doing to get chargers for cars like the e-Golf installed as its dealerships. But Jorg Sommer, Volkswagen of America'sl VP of product marketing and strategy, said today in Washington, DC that automakers need help from the federal, state and local governments to turn electric mobility into a thing. Speaking at the 2015 Electric Drive Congress, Sommer said VW would like the Feds to support fast charging networks in urban areas as well as interstate corridors and that governments should "commit to cleaner fleets by purchasing EVs and PHEVs. This should be a US Government priority," he said. He also suggested that the plug-in vehicle multiplier credits under the EPA's greenhouse gas regulations should be extended beyond the 2021 model year. VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA TO INVEST $10 MILLION IN ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE BY 2016 Feb 10, 2015 Washington, D.C., February 10, 2015 – Jorg Sommer, vice president, product marketing and strategy, Volkswagen of America, today presented Volkswagen's holistic approach to e-mobility surrounding the launch of the zero-tailpipe emissions 2015 e-Golf, including a $10 million commitment to support electric vehicle infrastructure by 2016. During a presentation delivered at the 2015 Electric Drive Congress in Washington D.C., Sommer stated that Volkswagen believes continued legislative support is needed to reach the next level of electric vehicle adoption. "Automakers have effectively delivered electric vehicles that can satisfy the needs of most American drivers," said Sommer. "In addition to the investment we and other companies and industries are making, we would like to see Federal financing support for establishing fast charging networks in urban areas and interstate corridors. We'd like to see more state and federal organizations commit to cleaner fleets by purchasing EVs and PHEVs. This should be a U.S. Government priority, and federal purchasing guidelines should reflect that by giving fleet purchasers the flexibility they need," Sommer said.
