1982 Vw Vanagonl Westfalia Camper Bus on 2040-cars
Charlotte, North Carolina, United States
|
It's a 1982 White Westy that shows some age. Has dings, dents, but all windows are intact, all major features are present. Original interior and curtains and upholstery. It does not run. This is an air cooled engine with an automatic transmission. There is a tear in the pop up canvas. It wasn't running when I bought it, but I replaced the fuel lines, had the fuel tank cleaned and sealed, put in a Bosch coil, new plugs, and it was turning over but not catching. I suspect new fuel injectors are in order, but there is also the question of vacuum leaks. Based on aftermarket parts I believe it has been rebuilt at least once, and I have been told that the parts identified are actually better than the originals (I Know - not if you are a purist.) The tires hold air pretty well, but I would plan on replacing them. All four hubcaps are here. Missing some bumper part, end caps. Definitely needs a mechanic. Rust through under the rocker panel behind the cabinets. Someone added big speaker boxes under the top sliding bunk, but the radio was not present when I bought it. Also, it came without an engine battery, and it will come without one. I bought an 84 that turned up for sale nearby, and I couldn't refrain from buying it. No warranty implied. AS IS. Please ask all of the questions you can think of before you make an offer to buy. I received it via car carrier as I bought it from Florida. Depending upon your distance from here, you might consider the same. Check out Uship. US Buyers Only. Deposit via PayPal within 48 hours. Balance to be paid within 7 days via cash, check, money order, but vehicle and title will not be released until checks/money orders have cleared the bank for sure. |

Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.
VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines
Sun, 16 Feb 2014The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.
Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Meet Brad, Sheena and Nacho
Driving through China is a pricey proposition. The couple will need to pony up a staggering $19,514 just to cover the fees.
Brad and Sheena Van Orden are in the midst of a life-defining campaign to travel around the world, and they're doing it in a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon custom built for the occasion. The past 15 months have seen the couple quit their jobs with Gore-Tex and drive from Arizona to the very southern tip of Argentina after spending a full two years saving and preparing for the trek. Now they're in southern Asia gearing up for the next leg of their journey.
