Alamogordo, New Mexico, United States
Hi everyone, I sell to you here my lovely project. I have been working on the car for over 12 months now but want to sell it now. I look for someone who is willing to finish it. The hole Bus is finished to 85 %. My price is only the costs for the materials, paint and parts. The work and time is not included, because thats the fun in the whole project. Here is what I have done so far (Milestones): - Pre-cleaned the whole bus - Got the entire interials out - I put in a running engine - Sand stripped the whole chasis and many parts - Repaired the broken or rusted body areas and filled them up - Painted the bus (PlastiDip) and almost all the parts - Cleaned and rebuilt chrome parts, lights, radio, speedometer and other things like a wallnut gear nob - Bought a CD-Player System and a Bass Box and other speakers and cables - engine, starter and transmission are professionally rebuild (Engine runs but I guess needs to be a little adjusted / I can send you a video of the running Engine) - New white wall Hankook tires, wheels newly painted and original chrome hubcaps rebuilt (quite nice) - Roof is cleaned, sanded, painted and reinstalled (works good, tent is missing) - Fuel tank, firewall, fuel intake and engine area are rebuild - Electric System checked by a professional (nearly everything can be used again) - Nearly all Body Rubber and Seals are new Here is what you need to do to finish it: - Install speedometer, radio, some electric - Install several bulbs, replace some small parts - Check and maybe replace brake pads or system (Brakes are still working) - Check and maybe replace shock absorbers (They are still working) - Get interior panels - Repair hot air tube under the bus if needed - Install Power-inlet on side of the Camper What is part of the deal: Because it will be too many pictures to show everything I give you a summary of the main part groups you are getting: - The BUS with new wheels, tires and so on (Ready to drive) - New Battery - Sound System (Bass Box, Super 8 Radio, original VW Radio, CD Radio) - Clean title How can You get the Bus: I recommend you come with a PICKUP TRUCK or a big VAN or SUV. Bring a Trailer that is able to hold the camper. The total weight of all the stuff is around 3400 lb. The bus is in a fair condition so far, but I am just a normal guy and not a volkswagen specialist. So I strongly recommend for you to look before you buy. Bus ist 43 years old and not new! |

Volkswagen shows off performance-ish Passat concept
Mon, 14 Jan 2013As part of its 2013 Detroit Auto Show debut package, Volkswagen has rolled out a sportier version of the Passat sedan, though it's strictly conceptual for now. A small dose of go-fast visuals have been added to the handsome Volkswagen, including 19-inch wheels, carbon-capped mirrors, an advanced front lighting system, LED taillamps and dual exhaust. Some carbon bits and upgraded leather are found inside the cabin, as well.
But the real performance chops come in the form of a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that sends 250 horsepower to the Passat's front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. That's a good boost in power over the 170 hp of the base 2.5-liter inline-five, but not quite as potent as the 3.6-liter VR6. A lowered sport suspension and revised electronic steering are also on hand, making things slightly more involving out on the road... we assume.
It's not quite the performance concept we were hoping for, but a more enthusiastic Passat isn't necessarily a bad thing. Scroll down for the press release.
Weekly Recap: Mercedes, Volkswagen spend big as import automakers invest in North America
Sat, Mar 14 2015Import automakers are on a building frenzy in North America as resurgent car sales have prompted companies to expand their manufacturing footprints to meet rising demand. That was evidenced this week when Mercedes-Benz announced plans to build a $500-million factory to produce the Sprinter commercial van, and Volkswagen confirmed a whopping $1-billion investment to expand its massive plant in Mexico. Meanwhile Jaguar Land Rover reportedly wants to build a factory in North America, but not for at least three years, and Hyundai is said to be expanding in the southern United States. The common thread in all of this expansion? Trucks, time and money. Mercedes wants to capitalize on the burgeoning work van segment in the United States and will break ground in 2016 on a 200-acre site in Charleston, SC, to build the next-generation Sprinter. The site will have a paint shop, body shop and an assembly line, and 1,300 people will be employed when production ramps up. Why do this, when Mercedes has immense van operations in Germany? It's cheaper to build in the US for the US market. Building locally allows Mercedes to avoid import taxes, forego a complex shipping process that involves partially disassembling German-built Sprinters and naturally, reduces the time it takes to deliver finished trucks to their buyers. "This plant is key to our future growth in the very dynamic North American van market," Volker Mornhinweg, head of Mercedes-Benz Vans, said in a statement. He was speaking about Mercedes and vans, but another German automotive giant, Volkswagen, had similar motives for its mammoth expansion plans in Puebla, Mexico. The added space and production capacity will allow VW to build a three-row version of the Tiguan, and provide another crossover for its US lineup that's light on SUVs. The current Tiguan has two rows. The factory will be able to churn out 500 units daily of the larger variant, and they will be sold in North and South America. It will arrive in the US in mid-2017, a spokesman told Autoblog. VW also plans to build another crossover, a midsize seven-passenger vehicle, at its growing Chattanooga, TN, site. "Localization has become key to safeguarding our competitive position on the global market, and manufacturing the Tiguan in Mexico will bring production closer to the US market," Michael Horn, CEO of Volkswagen Group of America, said in a statement.
Volkswagen sketches Geneva-bound concept
Wed, Feb 25 2015Volkswagen has released a pair of sketches that give us our first official glimpse at the company's new concept car, set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week. Details are slim – the car doesn't even have a name yet – but we do have some facts about VW's swoopy new showcar. First off, it's a sedan – well, "four-door coupe" – but is said to have a hatchback configuration. Autoblog has also learned that the car will be powered by a hybrid powertrain, using a TSI gasoline engine paired with two electric motors, and uses an all-wheel-drive configuration that's likely similar to that in the recently unveiled Cross Coupe GTE concept. Volkswagen says this showcar uses a new, progressive design language for the brand. And while it sort of looks like a dead ringer for a new CC, we're told this concept is positioned above that model. For now, that's all we know, but we expect a host of other details to be released closer to the car's official debut in Geneva next week. Stay tuned.
