I have for sale a 1973 Volkswagen Westfalia. I bought it almost 4 years ago with the intention of restoring it and keeping it for many years. These days I spend most of the year out of state and I would rather pass it on then to put it in storage. The Bus was sold new in Albuquerque NM and spent all its life here, that being said it is a rust free vehicle. The body is in good shape minus the dents and scrapes that I have taken pictures of. The paint is starting to fade in some areas due to the constant sun light we get in the desert, the nose of the bus was repainted for this reason. The canvas on the pop top will need to be replaced. Tires have about 5000 miles on them. Mechanically it runs good, a bit on the rich side but it has never given me any problems daily commuting or the hand full of camping trips I've taken it on. The interior is original and has some wear and tear consistent with a 40 year old vehicle, I have included pictures of all that. Lights, horn, wipers, defrost, heater controls all work. The bus comes with the original front curtains, mosquito net for the back hatch, original jack, and owners manual. Front windshield, windshield seal, and rear glass seal was replaced in 2009. My name is Gabe and you can call my cell 505-688-7944 or message me through here for any other questions or picture requests.

A $500 deposit is due within 48 hours after the auction has ended. Payment must be paid in full before the bus is picked up. This camper is being sold as is due to its age. If shipping I can help with the pick up, but the buyer is responsible for all costs associated with the shipping. Thank you and happy bidding.

VW invests in QuantumScape for potentially fireproof, long-range EV batteries

Mon, Dec 8 2014

VW might be getting ready to push its plug-in technology in a big way thanks to an investment in the battery startup QuantumScape. Key point: the solid-state battery is said to be fireproof and will offer tremendous range advantages. Details are not abundant yet, but according to Bloomberg, VW of America bought a five-percent stake in QuantumScape (and has an option to raise its holding). The tech could "more than triple" the EV range of VW, Porsche and Audi plug-in vehicles as soon as the middle of 2015, according to unnamed sources that Bloomberg talked to. Former Stanford University researchers started QuantumScape in 2010. The bare-bones QuantumScape website (there's nothing there other than some contact information) doesn't offer many hints about what's happening at the company, but GigaOM's Katie Fehrenbacher notes that QuantumScape is licensing tech from the "All Electron Battery" project at Stanford a few years ago. It certainly sounds amazing: [It's] a completely new class of electrical energy storage devices for electric vehicles that has the potential to provide ultra-high energy and power densities, while enabling extremely high cycle life. The All-Electron Battery stores energy by moving electrons, rather than ions, and uses electron/hole redox instead of capacitive polarization of a double-layer. ... If successful, this project will develop a completely new paradigm in energy storage for electrified vehicles that could revolutionize the electric vehicle industry. If that's what's coming in a future e-Golf or E-Tron, sign us up.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.
