1971 Westfalia Campmobile - Type II - Bay Window Bus.
I have had this van since the mid-1990's and have a pile of receipts as
well as a clean title and current registration. I was told I was the
"third or fourth" owner since original purchase, but have no way to
verify this. This bus has taken me all over the Western United States
and has endured all sorts of driving conditions, including dirt roads,
mountain passes, and remote campgrounds. Yes, the bus went to those
concerts too. Please no jokes about the stickers - I was in college,
what do you expect!
The engine is your standard 1600cc Dual Port and is not from original release. The transmission was overhauled in the late 1990's by Volks' Cafe in Santa Cruz (now Van Cafe). The current engine was overhauled a few years ago and has less than 10,000 miles on it. Most of the camper stuff is there, though the tent and tent poles are missing. There are two front seat kid cots, one mosquito net, one stool, upper cot, and the ice box/sink, and the original curtains. The bus is tired and needs attention it has been driven about three times a month since August 2013. Earlier this year the following new parts were installed: clutch, starter, coil, voltage regulator, battery, generator, and a few other tune-up related things were done at the same time, such as fuel filter, plug wires, etc. The van has been regularly maintained and is in decent shape. The problems: missing rear bumper, missing camping tent/poles, dents/damage at front driver corner, back left corner, and side behind sliding door. There is rust along bottom of front window, along water trap, and at damaged areas. There is some rust on foot pan, mostly on drivers side. The canvas is torn/missing, the canvas on upper cot is brittle, and there is minor damage to camping interior and upholstery. The front seats need to be redone/replaced. Driver side door lock jams. No brights. Needs a new steering box but drives/steers as-is with minimal problems. Other minor issues exist and van is SOLD AS-IS. Manufactured by Westfalia Werke K-G, West Germany. |

10 best new car deals of November 2021
Thu, Nov 4 2021Sales 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).
Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes also under diesel emissions scrutiny
Sat, Oct 10 2015The controversy over Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal isn't limited to the US. In Europe, where diesel engines are far more popular, the issue is shining a harsh light on the NEDC emissions test. As already known, the evaluation does a poor job of reflecting real-world production of NOx, and it appears a significant number of automakers are affected. The Guardian in the UK has been reporting on real-world test results from a company called Emissions Analytics. After the latest round of checks, vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi were found to generate far more NOx than they should. The newspaper also published similar results for Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroen, VW, and Audi. On average, the figures are about four times over the limit of producing the pollutant. Unlike VW and its defeat device, these automakers aren't actually breaking the rules. The vehicles perform up to the NEDC lab test for emissions, but those results simply aren't translated to the street. "The VW issue in the US was purely the trigger which threw light on a slightly different problem in the EU - widespread legal over-emissions," Nick Molden from Emissions Analytics said to The Guardian. A big fight to decide the future of this issue appears to be on the horizon. Automakers claim that they can't meet the next round of tightening emissions regulations and are asking for compromises. Although, spokespeople for Mercedes and Honda told The Guardian that the brands would be in favor of the stricter rules. Meanwhile, some European governments began backtracking their support of diesels well before this scandal came to light. The added scrutiny certain hasn't helped the future of the oil-burner.
