1977 VW BUS CAMPMOBILE WESTFALIA

You are looking at a perfect example of a 1977 Westfalia Campmobile in outstanding condition... Like stepping back in time!

I am the second owner of this true barn find from California which I purchased in 2006.

This bus is and has always been 100% road worthy.  I have done all maintenance myself and have had ZERO issues mechanically.  I would not hesitate to drive this bus anywhere in the world tomorrow!

It runs great and starts every time in all weather conditions. 

Idles perfectly, great compression in all cylinders, upgraded electronic ignition. Newer matching fuel pump (still has all Fuel Injection working 100%), newer coil. newer battery. Very good fuel economy - mid 20's mpg. Odometer shows 20,300 miles, however, that is actually 120,300.

Transmission shifts very clean in all gears, never pops out. Front disk brakes, rear drum all in good shape.  She stops straight on a dime.
Suspension is also great, drives perfectly straight and smooth with just one finger on the wheel.  She wears top rated Hankook tires with only a few thousand miles on them. Includes matching spare as well. I also had the gas tank removed in 2007.. it was sandblasted and treated with lifetime material so there will never be "rust in the gas" issue that many older VW's experience.  The fuel injection system runs 100% smooth and gets low to mid 20 mpg consistently.

Exterior looks awesome, the bus was repainted in 2006 with original Chrome yellow VW paint, and also had a new canvas installed at the same time. All original glass in great condition.

Accident free bus. just a few tiny spots of surface rust near original window rubber (only the front windshield rubber has been replaced)... which can be very easily repaired (if you wanted to make this a perfect showroom type bus).  This bus would win nearly any show entered in as is.  Might be the finest looking and running bus east of the Mississippi :)

All electrical working.

This is an unmolested bus which has not been restored.  what you see is what you get... NO hidden problems.

Also includes:

- Original carpet front and back. 

- Original plaid upholstery (I do have a roll of original plaid which will be included in sale if ever needed) 

- Original like new rear hatch mosquito net. 

- Original child's cot or hammock for front cabin. 

- Dual Battery set-up (power is drawn from second battery while camping)

- Small solar panel for trickle charging while camping.

- 400 watt DC to AC inverter with 2 outlets.

- Tachometer, Oil temperature and Dakota Digital Cylinder head temperature gauges.

I have done my best to describe the vehicle... Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request additional photos or videos.
I am sure the winning bidder will be 100% satisfied with this classic!  GOOD LUCK!!!

I am located near BOSTON, Massachusetts. 02066. all INTERNATIONAL BUYERS WELCOME - I CAN ASSIST WITH SHIPPING TO ANYWHERE WORLDWIDE at buyers expense.

This is a nearly 40 year old vehicle and is sold in AS IS condition with no warranties expressed or implied.

VW confirms new TDI for second half of 2014 in Golf, Jetta, Passat and Beetle

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Diesel 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 e-Co-Motion concept poised for delivery to Geneva

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

With Nissan getting ready to launch the e-NV200, it appears Volkswagen is looking to go after the same zero-emission commercial vehicle market with the all-electric 2013 e-Co-Motion Concept. Debuting next week at the Geneva Motor Show, the e-Co-Motion Concept might be small in size, but VW says it has cargo and payload capacities that should be perfect for small businesses.
Measuring 179 inches long, 75 inches wide and 77 inches tall, the e-Co-Motion Concept has about the same footprint as the current Golf, and it has a cargo capacity of 162 cubic feet and a maximum payload of more than 1,700 pounds. There isn't too much information on the e-Co-Motion just yet - such as what electric components and platform are used - but the press release posted below states while the concept is shown as a cargo van, future body styles could include a passenger wagon or a refrigerated box van.

Volkswagen NMC production guise caught in China

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

Chinese car site Autohome has what are said to be the first pictures of the Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe concept in production form. VW's NMC was just introduced at the Beijing Motor Show, while background chatter indicated it would go on sale in China, Autohome says that production version will be built at the Shanghai-Volkswagen plant in Ningbo, and the retail guise could be introduced at the Guangzhou Motor Show in November and go on sale that same month.
Assuming this is the production car, its main lines have made the jump from the concept but with less fine detailing, a silver hue and with conventional VW wheels it's lost a little bit of oomph. Still, a few checkmarks on the option sheet can fix most of that, the shape remains handsome and the 2.0-liter turbo underhood keeps performance peppy and mileage frugal enough. You can head to Autohome for a couple more photos of a sedan we'd be happy to make room for over here.
