1982 Volkswagen Vanagon l Westfalia Campmobile on 2040-cars
Petaluma, California, United States
THIS 1982 VOLKSWAGEN VANAGON L WESTFALIA CAMPMOBILE IS
POWERED BY A FUEL INJECTED, 2.0 L ENGINE AND MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE
IS IN VERY CLEAN, ORIGINAL CONDITION THROUGHOUT. THERE ARE VERY FEW VANAGONS AS
NICE AS THIS DRY, TEXAS
WESTFALIA.
THE FRAME IS STRAIGHT AND SOLID AND SHOWS NO SIGNS OF RUST
OR COLLISION DAMAGE. THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE RUST FREE AND IN GOOD SHAPE. ALL THE HINGE AND DOOR SILL AREAS ARE IN LIKE
NEW CONDITION. EVEN THE ORIGINAL SERIAL NUMBER STICKER IS STILL ON THE DRIVERS
DOOR JAMB. THE VEHICLES ENGINE, TRANSMISSION AND REST OF THE
DRIVETRAIN ARE IN GOOD /TOP FORM TO EXCELLENT CONDITION. HOWEVER, LIKE ALL
VANAGON CAMPERS, ABOUT $500 -$800 MAINTENANCE IS CALLED FOR. AND THE
PRICING/RESERVE HAS BEEN SET WELL BELOW THIS IN ORDER FOR THE NEW OWNER TO
BENEFIT FROM THE PURCHASE AS-IS. THE AIR CONDITIONING IS PRESENT, BUT THE MOTOR IS DISCONNECTED, THE BRAKES NEED SERVICING AND CV AXLES NEED MAINTENANCE, AND ONE OF
THE MOTOR SEALS ( MOST LIKELY VALVE COVER GASKET) IS LEAKING A SLIGHT AMOUNT OF OIL. THE ODOMETER
STOPPED FUNCTIONING JUST RECENTLY, HOWEVER THE MILEAGE READING OF 124K SEEMS TO
CORRELATE WITH THE CONDITION OF THIS WESTFALIA. ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT MAKES THIS VEHICLE TRULY STAND OUT IS
THAT IT STILL SPORTS THE ONE YEAR ORIGINAL TO WESTFALIA ONLY, FACTORY BLUE
PAINT. THIS COLOR IS CONSIDERED BY MANY TO BE ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC AND
ATTRACTIVE COLOR EVER OFFERED ON A VANAGON. THE MAJOR EXTERIOR BODY PANELS ARE
STRAIGHT AND PROPERLY ALIGNED WITH GOOD, GAP FIT AROUND ALL THE DOORS AND
HATCHES. THERE ARE SOME SCRATCHES AND SCRAPES ON THE PAINT BUT THAT IS TO BE
EXPECTED FOR THE YEAR/MILEAGE. THE FACTORY ORIGNAL INTERIOR SHOWS THE SAME QUALITY AS THE
REST OF THE VEHICLE. THE INTERIOR UPHOLSTERY AND TRIM PANELS ARE ALL IN
EXCELLENT TO GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THIS VECHILE HAS BEEN WELL
TAKEN CARE OF THROUGHOUT ITS LIFE. THE POP TOP FUNCTIONS EASILY AND FLAWLESSLY AND THE TENT HAS
NO RIPS OR TEARS. ALL THE APPLIANCES FUCTION AS THEY SHOULD AND THERE IS A HIGH
END ECLIPSE FOUR SPEAKER STEREO SYSTEM WITH DUAL AMPLIFIERS. THE TIRES HAVE PLENTY OF TREAD AND IT HAS AN OPTIONAL TRAILER HITCH. I HAVE DONE MY BEST TO BE AS ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE , AND THE WESTFALIA IS AVAILABLE FOR PRE- PURCHASE INSPECTION PRIOR TO BIDDING IN PETALUMA CALIFORNIA:

VW outsells GM in China for first time in 8 years
Fri, 26 Oct 2012In case you didn't know, Volkswagen is hell-bent on becoming the largest automaker in the world. The German carmaker has inched closer to that goal, having outsold General Motors in China last quarter for the first time in eight years.
Volkswagen's sales in China, its largest marker, increased by 21 percent last quarter to 704,991 units. Those numbers almost tripled GM's third-quarter growth, and were enough to beat out the American automaker's 664,765 sales. GM, however, still leads in year-to-date sales in China by a slim margin of around 77,000 units. The Asian nation also happens to be GM's largest market, and according to the report in Automotive News, China's car market may grow to be larger than the US, Japan and Germany combined in three years' time.
About the news his company was bested in China by VW last quarter, GM CEO Dan Akerson is quoted saying, "It's not whether you're the biggest car manufacturer. It's whether you want to be the most profitable." It should be noted of these figures that GM includes truck figures, yet excludes Hong Kong and Macau from its Chinese sales numbers, while VW does just the opposite. Through September of this year, Volkswagen had 5 of the 10 best selling vehicles in China. GM boasted three of the cars on that list.
Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union
Sat, 30 Aug 2014The struggle over unionization at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. There's now a second union fighting to organize at the plant; although this one is staunchly against the actions of the United Auto Workers. At the same time, the UAW is still signing up voluntary members to its recently created Local 42 at the facility and is reportedly near having a majority of the hourly employees on its side.
The new, anti-UAW union campaign is being spearheaded by employee Mike Burton, according to Reuters, and he calls his group the American Council of Employees. He claims to already have 108 signatures in support of his organization. Burton believes that the UAW is harmful to businesses, and his goal is to force another vote to determine a preferred union among workers.
The UAW was initially defeated (712 to 626) when it attempted a union vote at the Tennessee plant in February. However, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel told Reuters that Local 42 has already signed up over 700 members. If it can reach a majority of the roughly 1,500 employees, the group hopes VW might consider recognizing it as the factory's union.
VW Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.
