UP FOR SALE IS A 1973 VOLKSWAGON WESTFALIA CAMPMOBILE. IT IS VERY COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL. IT HAS 133447 MILES, REPORTED TO HAVE APPROX. 10K ON A REBUILD. FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND, IT CAME WITH A TWO CARB SYSTEM, IT NOW HAS A SINGLE 2 BBL WEBER. THE BUS HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A FEW YEARS AND IS NOT A DRIVER AS IT IS. I PUT PLUGS AND POINTS IN IT AND IT FIRED RIGHT UP WITH A PRIME. THE ENGINE SOUNDS VERY GOOD, BUT I WOULD NOT TRUST THE GAS IN THE TANK, SO THE FUEL LINE IS DISCONNECTED. I AM SURE IT WILL NEED THE REST OF A FULL TUNE-UP TO BE DONE, AND THE CARB REBUILT. IT HAS SOME RUST, BUT MINOR IN NATURE, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS. THE DRIVERS SIDE ROCKER HAS BEEN PATCHED. THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS VERY CLEAN AS YOU CAN SEE. THE TIRES ARE NEAR NEW WITH NO DRY ROT. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL CURTAINS, CUSIONS, BUG SCREEN FOR THE REAR OPENING, CHILDS COT FOR THE FRONT, JUMP SEAT, AND REFRIDGERATOR WITH FOOD PREP SHELF AND SINK WITH HAND PUMP, SWING UP TABLE. THE ORIGINAL BIRCH HEADLINER IS STILL EXCELLENT. AT SOME POINT, THE FLOOR GOT WET AND THE SUB FLOOR ROTTED, SO IT AND THE VINYL WERE REMOVED. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAS CUT A PIECE OF BIRCH PLYWOOD TO REPLACE IT. THIS BUS SAT UNDER A TREE  AND IT SHOWS THE GRIME THAT COMES FROM THAT. I LIGHTLY CLEANED ONE AREA ON BOTH THE FRONT LEFT, AND THE POP TOP. YOU CAN SEE THAT IT WILL CLEAN UP NICELY. THE WINDSHIELD HAS A SMALL DING IN THE LOWER LEFT PART.  IT WILL NEED A NEW CANVAS FOR THE TOP, WHICH WORKS FINE. I HAVE A FILE WITH ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS, THE ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUAL, AND NUMEROUS SPARES THAT HAVE BEEN COLLECTED OVER THE YEARS. AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST BY ANY MEANS, THE GREATFUL DEAD STICKER ON THE " KITCHEN " MODULE. THE RESERVE IS LOW, AS IS THE BIN. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION EARLY, AS THE BUS IS FOR SALE LOCALLY. FEEL FREE TO CALL WITH QUESTIONS 860-480-3378.

Vahland leaving VW over dispute on how to run NA region

Wed, Oct 14 2015

On November 1, Winfried Vahland was supposed to take over Volkswagen Group's recently created North American region that combines Canada, the US, and Mexico. But the longtime exec has instead decided to leave the automaker after a dispute over how to manage the new combined region. Vahland is currently the boss at Skoda, and in a statement about his departure the Czech company said: "Differing views on the organization of the new Group region have led to this decision; this decision is expressly not related to current events on the issue of diesel engines." Vahland is leaving at his own request, the announcement says. Vahland was appointed to run to North American region during VW's massive corporate shakeup on September 25. The decision was part of the automaker's plan to put a greater emphasis on regions and brands, rather than on centralized authority. According to Automotive News Europe citing a report from Germany's Auto Bild, Vahland was passed over for the CEO job, with Matthias Muller taking that position. Amidst the changes, Michael Horn remained at the helm of Volkswagen Group of America, reporting to the new regional boss. Vahland joined the automaker in 1990 and started running VW's operations in China in 2005. He became boss at Skoda in 2010. "In the last 25 years, Prof. Vahland made a great contribution to the company. We respect his decision and thank him for his exceptional performance," Muller said in the departure announcement. Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland leaves Volkswagen Group 14.10.2015 Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland leaves Volkswagen Group Mlada Boleslav, 14 October 2015 – After 25 years of successful work in Volkswagen Group, most recently as Chairman of SKODA, Prof. Dr. Winfried Vahland is leaving the company at his own request. Prof. Vahland will therefore not be taking up the position of overall responsibility for the North American Region (NAR). Differing views on the organisation of the new Group region have led to this decision; this decision is expressly not related to current events on the issue of diesel engines. Prof. Vahland began his work in Volkswagen Group in 1990. After holding several key positions at home and abroad, he took over Group responsibility as President and CEO of Volkswagen in China in 2005 and contributed significantly to the successful new direction of Volkswagen in China. He was appointed Chairman of the Board of Management of SKODA in 2010.

Who wants to pay a million dollars for a VW Beetle?

Mon, Jun 1 2015

The Volkswagen Beetle was always envisioned as a cheap mode of transportation, but now one is being offered for over $1 million by a dealer in the company's home base of Wolfsburg, Germany. So just what makes this Beetle so special? It's not the first one made, and it's not the last one made – but it comes close: This particular example is an Ultima Edicion – one of the final Bugs made in Mexico before production ended even there in 2003. It's decked out in beige with a black fabric interior and none – repeat, none – of the bells and whistles. With less than 75 miles on the odometer, it offers one wealthy buyer the rare opportunity to get an original Beetle (not some modernized incarnation thereof) in factory-fresh condition, which no one has been able to do for over a dozen years now. Does that make it worth the million-euro ($1.1M) asking price? Not if you ask us, no. But then we wouldn't count ourselves among the most dedicated Beetle fanatics out there.
