This is a reserve auction for a 1973 Volkswagen Bus with Westy interior.
The exterior of the bus was recently repainted in its original colors of Ceylon beige and Pastel white. The body of the bus is in good shape and has no rust issues except for some bubbling paint on the right rear wheel well. The front windshield has been replaced. It has received new windshield rubber along with the rear windshield. The sunroof has been resealed and doesn't leak.
The interior of the bus is in great shape. The driver seat has been recently recovered. The carpet is new. There are also new coco mats for the driver's and passenger's seats. The gauges, headlights, and rear lights all work (except for the left rear tail light, which probably just needs a new bulb). The interior is comfortable and looks great. The bus has also received a new Hirschmann Radio that looks as if it's from the 50's and 60's and is capable of playing audio from an iPod or MP3. The bus has also received 5 new tires.
The bus runs well and has just received a VW Beetle Engine that runs great (see video). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzHiBxeDH3k&feature=youtu.be
The bus is a 4 speed. The clutch works well and the bus shifts fine, although getting into reverse is sometimes tricky.
The car lived in Las Vegas, Nevada for its first 30 years and is very clean and dry.
Included with bus:
- Several Emergency tools - flares, gas can, fire extinguisher (dashboard hula girl negotiable)
- 15 cu. ft. waterproof bag for roof rack

Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.

VW Jetta GLI, Peugeot 505 are MotorWeek's 1986 Euro sport sedan alternatives
Tue, Dec 23 2014Video reviews have become a mainstay of automotive journalism, but long before every publication turned on its video cameras and started uploading to YouTube, there was one program that was blazing the trail. That, of course, was MotorWeek, the television car program produced by Maryland Public Television and hosted by the inimitable John Davis. The program first aired back in 1981, and after more than three decades in the business, it's got a considerable archive of old episodes to unearth. In this latest gem recovered from the MotorWeek back catalog, the program pitted two European sports sedans against each other: a Volkswagen Jetta GLI and a Peugeot 505 Turbo. That's right: back in the 1980s, Peugeot was still competing in the US marketplace. The forced-induction 505 may not have been enough to keep the French automaker in American showrooms, but it was enough to stand up against the VW. Which one won MotorWeek's favor? You'll just have to watch the six-minute clip to find out. News Source: MotorWeek via YouTube Volkswagen Peugeot Economy Cars Performance Videos Sedan vw jetta gli
