 I have not seen any rust on this rig and i have been all over it.  The engine is an 86 1.6 liter and has a 5 speed transmission.  This was a gas rig and I with some help got it converted to diesel.  I have a button under the steering wheel with indicator light to heat up the glow plugs.  Also comes with fiber glass canopy that fits perfect.  This pickup could use some TLC but restoring it will not take a lot as this appears to me to be the original paint and the box is almost like new.  I have never seen a better box on one.   The front bumper and hood is bent a little on the right side as you should be able to see in the pictures.  The antennae is broke off so it does not pick up radio stations very good.  I have never tried a tape in the tape player but i could.  I put a 2 inch exhaust on this with a small glass pack it makes a little noise when stepped on.  Smokes a little on cold start up and little more when the weather was cold.  The ash tray does not stay closed but is there.  There are no cracks in the dash. 

This little rig has good power, for what it is, drives down the road straight, steers great.  The odometer does  not work but the speedometer works good but is slow.    Have questions about this just ask.  I don't think you could find a nicer one, that is this original.  Tires have lots of rubber, look like more than 60% and all matching and i don't see any uneven wear.

Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

Meet 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.

Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.

Audi prepping a flex-fuel A3 for Latin America

Fri, Oct 16 2015

Volkswagen's Audi division hasn't fared well from its parent company's diesel-emissions scandal, especially in the US and Europe. In South America, though, Audi is set to unveil its first vehicle of the flex-fuel variety, according to Nseavoice. Perhaps the German automaker can earn some good karma down in the Southern Hemisphere. The model is the 2016 Audi A3, which is made in Audi's Brazil factory. The engine is a 1.4-liter variety, and it will be able to run on either conventional gasoline or ethanol, or a blend of both. The decision makes sense because ethanol is plentiful in Brazil since the government has long pushed for it and there's plenty of sugar-cane feedstock to produce the stuff. Audi can use all of the positive news it can get, especially in the wake of VW's diesel-emissions scandal. As many as 11 million VW and Audi diesels may have been fitted with software that cheats emissions-testing systems. One result from the scandal's proverbial shrapnel is that the Audi A3 TDI diesel was stripped of its 2010 Green Car of the Year Award by Green Car Journal. The decision marks the first time in the award's history that a winner was stripped of the honor. VW has a long history offering flex-fuel vehicles in Brazil. In 2003, the German automaker was the first to debut a flex-fuel engine, and within two years, VW's Brazil factories were making 300,000 flex-fuel vehicles annually. Other companies have since jumped into Brazil's flex-fuel fray, including Nissan and Honda.
