1976 Vw Westfalia....incredible Condition...ready To Travel on 2040-cars
Shandaken, New York, United States
This bus is a runner. There are a new core and heads with only 15k on them in the original engine casing. A new clutch has only 15k on it. The rear axles, ditto. A new Bosch fuel pump, 12k. A new alternator and gel battery, 12k. New tires, 5k. New starter and solenoid, new injectors, 5k. Brakes are in great shape.
This bus runs and drives tip-top. The tranny is smooth and steady. The front end is tight with absolutely no play in the wheel. The body has been completely restored and painted. Any rust has been totally eradicated. It looks brand new. The frame and all joints, tie rods, etc. are original and in perfect condition. Zero rust. The new engine has been maintained with serious attention to detail. The valves have been cared for. This bus has never been overheated and has always been driven properly as the VW engine asks for. There is a nice system in this bus with a JVC deck, Bluetooth with hands-free mic, sub, amp and the rear speakers are in boxes with 15 ft of cable each so the party can be brought outside. It has a Fiamma two-bike rear rack that will carry any bikes, even a pair of 29-er mountain bikes. The canvas in the pop-top is flawless and the screen is brand new, I replaced it myself. The back-crippling fold-down rear bench seat has been removed and replaced by a memory foam bed that is (forgive the pun) a dream to sleep on. This bus is ready to travel right now with one or two people. When I built the custom bed I left the fold-down frame intact for anyone who would like to re-install the bench for passengers. I also removed the fridge/stove/sink unit as I found it senseless and in the way. These can be bought online and re-installed with four bolts if anyone should desire. What you've got here is a mechanically super-sound bus with a no-rust body that drives like a champ. This is hard to find. With a little re-modeling inside you've got that original Westy look.

VW, Suzuki mulling rekindling relationship in face of legal battle
Sat, 27 Jul 2013Volkswagen and Suzuki have been undergoing marriage counseling in a bid to avoid finalizing their nasty divorce. The blissful union has been troubled for some time, with Volkswagen claiming that it could affect operational decisions at Suzuki, and the Japanese brand's sniping and constant flirting with a certain Italian temptress causing rifts.
The matter first went to court in 2012, when Suzuki demanded VW get out, and leave its 19.9-percent stake in the Japanese brand in a box to the left. Now, Automotive News is reporting that the company will give the relationship one last shot, according to closed-door dealings between the two in London.
Still, it's understood that VW and Suzuki recognize the benefit of their alliance, and that it'd be in the best interests of the kids both parties to make things work. Spokespeople declined to comment to AN, but the newsmagazine spoke with Frank Biller, an analyst for LBBW in Stuttgart, who said, "Both companies stand to benefit if they can overcome the disagreements over leadership claims."
VW confirms new TDI for second half of 2014 in Golf, Jetta, Passat and Beetle
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Diesel lovers rejoice. Volkswagen is bringing the latest iteration of its 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel engine - dubbed the EA288 - to the 2015 model year Golf, Jetta, Passat, Beetle (2013 model pictured above) and Beetle Convertible, and the cars will be on sale in the second half of 2014.
While it shares its moniker with the old diesel, the new engine produces 150 horsepower, a 10-hp boost, and 236 pound-feet of torque. VW promises improved fuel economy as well, but it hasn't announced specifically what amount yet. The company claims that despite the same displacement, only the bore spacing is shared with the previous version. The mill includes new features like exhaust gas recirculation, an intercooler integrated into the intake manifold and low-friction camshaft bearings.
VW Group of America has had great success with diesels in the US recently. Vee-Dub and Audi sold 105,899 diesel-equipped models in 2013. It was the first time the group ever sold over 100,000 diesels in a year, and they accounted for 24 percent of sales. Scroll down to read the full press release about the announcement.
Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.
