Up for auction is a 1982 VW Diesel Pickup. This is a project that I started three years ago. Unfortunately I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2011 and the cancer is getting worse. The doctors haven't given me much more time to live, so it's time for me to sell my baby.

I am a certified VW technician that actually worked on the trucks at the VW dealership back when they were selling these trucks.

Listed below are the things that I have replace:

The truck's floor boards were rusted out, so I welded in new metal and fiber glassed over top the top of the complete floor boards.

There were several other common rust spots that I repaired. I used POR rust preventative paint in all of the areas that the rust was repaired. You can Google POR to acquire more information.

New deflector headlights were installed along with HID kits.

The engine was replaced with a later model engine with less that 90,000 miles. I have a friend that removed this engine from a later model Jetta many years ago. It was in storage for many years until after two years of bugging him to sell it to me, he finally did sell it to me.

Replaced ALL external engine seals in the engine along with the timing belt and drive belts.

Installed a remanufactured injection pump.

Clutch kit.

Installed a new stainless header along with a complete custom 2 1/2" exhaust system.

My next project was going to be installing a turbo kit. The new turbo kit goes with the truck. See pictures.

Installed an electric vacuum pump from a late model Audi. Everyone that has an early model VW diesel knows that the factory mechanical pumps are awful.

All CV Boots.

ALL shifter bushings and linkage rods.

Front brake pads, caliper bushings, ball joints, wheel bearings, transmission external seals, front strut inserts, strut bearing tops.

Rear shoes, wheel cylinders, parking brake cable, wheel bearings, shocks.

Replaced front windshield and seal, rear window seal, early style GTI steering wheel, custom fitted later model center console and late model seat belts.

New custom racing seats, new carpet, new leather shift knob, interior was dyed black, The dash has not been cut up and still uses the old knob style radio. JVC A/M F/M Cassette radio. New speakers.

Heater blower motor and resister. Still has the factory R-12 A/C system that works great.

Things that the truck still needs:

I left the original body trim holes, so I was still looking for the factory body trim that goes from the front fender to the rear finder.

Rust has started back on the right rear fender behind the wheel (see pictures).

Turbo kit needs to be installed. Comes with a new boost gauge. The electric brake booster pump is currently mounted on the firewall and is a little noisy. It needs to be mounted somewhere else near the front (maybe on the transmission).

The trucks runs great and gets compliments from people every tme I drive it. Anyone that is local is welcome to come test drive it. Just contact me mhemrick@triad.rr.com

The vehicle is also being sold locally and the seller has the right to end or cancel the auction at any time.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs

Wed, Nov 29 2017

BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining
