  Up for auction today is a 1987 VW Jetta GLI Turbo Diesel. I bought this car from a friend who has owned it for the last 5 years, but he took it to a oil change place and they did not put the filter back on right, and her blew the motor. The oil change place paid him but not enough to fix this car so I bought it from him. I did not want to try and rebuild his motor, so I took a 1.6 turbo diesel I bought and put it in. The engine was rebuilt from the ground up with all new internal parts. The new engine has about 1500 miles on it, it runs beautiful, and gets 47-52 MPG. I really like this care, but I need something that is a little more utility oriented. The car is in great condition, and gets a ton of VW people asking questions. I am going to list the good on this car, then the bad.
1. New rebuilt engine. Rebuild entails new main bearing, rod bearings, intermediate shaft bearing, engine seals, connecting rod, oil pump,     gaskets, head bolts, cam, valves, timing belt, glow plugs, rebuilt injectors
2. Rebuilt injection pump.
3. Rebuilt turbo 20K ago.
4. New alternator 20k ago.
5. New clutch, flywheel, pressure plate

This is your chance to get your hands on a beautiful car that will be hard to find later.

10 best new car deals of November 2021

Thu, Nov 4 2021

Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).

Next VW Camper van concept to be electric

Sun, Apr 5 2015

The next-generation Volkswagen Transporter workhorse van (teased above) debuts on April 15, but VW is also working on a more retro-inspired van concept that would be motivated by electric power. Dr. Heinz-Jakob Neusser, Volkswagen development boss on the automotive giant's board of management, described the upcoming Camper concept to Autocar at the New York Auto Show. On the outside, the model would feature a wide D-pillar, boxy design and small front overhang to maintain a classic look. "The distance from the A-pillar to the front end must be very short," he said to Autocar. For power, an electric motor would spin the front axle, and the batteries would be located under the floor. Dr. Neusser was clear that the electric van was just a concept but didn't say when it might debut. He also didn't indicate if the vehicle shared a platform with the new T6 or some over model in the company's lineup. VW has been toying with building a retro-style van for over a decade. In 2001, it showed the Microbus concept, and a decade later there was the Bulli. Neither of them ever actually saw production.

VW clubs pay it forward to fix elderly woman's vandalized '69 Bus

Sun, Jan 11 2015

Not long after Thanksgiving, surveillance cameras caught four boys in Arizona throwing rocks through the windows of a 1969 Volkswagen bus belonging to an elderly woman called Ann. A few nights later they returned to the scene of the first crime and repeated it, smashing windows they missed before. Ann had no other car and no way to make a living, but when Jesus Aguilera – a member of the Arizona Bus Club – came across the incident on a Facebook page, he got to work. When he was finished, the AZ Bus Club and the Tucson Mob Squad had donated thousands of dollars to pay for new glass and get it installed, and now Ann has a magic bus she can drive again. Now, the vandals just need to be caught... Check out the video above for the story. News Source: AZ FamilyTip: Jav Volkswagen Minivan/Van Classics Videos crime vw bus
