1991 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia Camper!!
INCREDIBLY LOW MILES!!
Great Nostalgia Piece for the Volkswagen or Limbo crowd!
I've been tracking the listings on ebay and on different car sales sites to see the average price of what these go for, I'm very impressed with how people have maintained their love for these awesome vehicles!
This is a nice van that has gray interior, and has been garage kept since owned.
This camper is in very good shape!
The oil has been changed recently and oil still is in good shape.
We put fresh gas in it about 3 days ago from the date of this listing.
The headlights have no oxidation and look almost brand new.
Turn the key and it'll fire right up!
As of last use, the Sink, Stove and Fridge all work!!
I've tried to get the best angles in the pictures, but there are some issues to address regarding the condition:
The Sunroof has a small piece missing near the seal, I'm contemplating buying a new one. They have one on Gowesty.com for $29.99. Since it has been in the garage, we've had no reason to replace it, and when we had it out camping, we covered it with a trash bag to keep any water out.
Due to the fact that it has been sitting for awhile, there are some slight tears in the canvas for the roof. There are all VERY small, I don't think any of them are longer than an inch or two. I think the canvas is probably the biggest issue with this camper.
There is a very small rock chip in the passenger side of the windshield, it is several years old and has not spread at all. It's maye a 1/4 inch across. Very small.
There is a cassette player in the van, but none of the buttons are attached to it anymore, I'll update this post if I can find them.
The bench seat and the carpet between the two front seats have some good size stains on them, They could definitely use a good shampoo.
The hydraulics for the back hatch do not work, but these look like very universal hydraulic posts, and seem to be a pretty cheap and easy fix.
The top of the van and the bumpers have the usual fading.
I haven't seen ANY rust on the van so far, I will update this post if I do.
Any questions or special pictures requests, I encourage you to message me!
Thanks!
On Mar-11-14 at 21:12:54 PDT, seller added the following information: I just wanted to reiterate... The van starts up with no problem, but it does run a little rough. I honestly can't remember what another one sounds like or what it is supposed to sound like. I've heard from a friend that it should sound like that as it "Sounds like a Volkswagen." I'm planning on getting it inspected before the auction ends, and if there are any major issues, I'll either list it, or cancel the auction until it's fixed. I've also added a picture of the engine, as I completely forgot to add it before. Also The gas gauge does not function correctly and it could use new tires pretty soon. As before, any questions, Please ask! |

VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years
Sun, 26 May 2013It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.
Volkswagen drops "GTi" lawsuit against Suzuki
Tue, 02 Oct 2012Way back in 2004, Volkswagen took umbrage with Suzuki being granted permission to use the nameplate "SWIFT GTi" for a performance variant of its small-car offering (2012 equivalent seen here). Now, eight years and surely some very steep legal bills later, VW has finally dropped its claim against Suzuki.
The General Court of the European Union stated, back in March of this year, that Suzuki's GTi registration could not be confused with VW's "Golf GTI." Volkswagen had appealed that ruling, though has now reportedly called off the dogs. In fact, Germany's Die Welt reports that the appeal has been dead for several weeks now.
This news comes amongst continued arbitration acrimony between the two automakers, all revolving around VW's forced divestiture of nearly 20-percent stake it purchased in Suzuki some two years ago.
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.
