1987 Volkswagen Syncro Westfalia Camper, Vw 4x4, Westy on 2040-cars
South Point, Ohio, United States
For your consideration is my 1986 syncro westy. 1986 was the first year for the syncro camper and this is a very nice example. Over all it is very complete and tastefully upgraded. Upgrades include a Fiamma Awning, yakima rack, Old Man Emu Shocks front and rear, as well as lift springs. South African wheels (5) has a a matching spare! Also the propane tank is a newer replacement and it also has the gray water tank underneath as well.
Over the years the vehicle was well maintained and cared for. I have a folder of receipts an inch thick detailing everything that has been done to the van over the year. The tent has been replaced as well but shows some fading on one side it also has a patch in the rear most corner behind the hinge. The interior is nice and all camper pieces are present including both table, as well as the rare port o potty cabinet! It will need a new sink faucet Originally this van didn't come with AC but has dealer installed in dash and rear Behr ac units (needs charged)! Heat blows HOT! HOT! HOT! this also means you get a storage cabinet over the rear bed that most campers do not have! Motor is the factory 2.1, and has recently had the head gaskets replaced.. Also at this time the clutch slave cylinder was replaced and the rear brakes were completely rebuilt, the water pump was just recently replaced. Engine runs good, it was just discovered it has a bad 02 sensor and a new one is being ordered so that can be changed out. Its currently running with the 02 sensor unplugged and is going up and down the road nicely! Overall the body is in good condition it does have a bit of the typical westy rust on the lower rocker on the drivers side, as well as a few spots by the window seals. Accident free though with no signs of repair or damage has a older paint job that still shines up and is nicely presentable. Underside is DRY DRY DRY very clean and has not seen much winter driving over the years. Trans is the factory 5 speed with a working rear locker! Shifts smoothly through all gears, again no leaks or anything of that nature. Please let me know if you have any questions I have the vehicle for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. |

Recharge Wrap-up: VW CEO mulls battery factory, voters approve $201B in transportation funding
Mon, Nov 21 2016Volkswagen Group CEO Matthias Muller says that it would "make sense" for the automaker to begin producing its own batteries. As the company moves toward electrification, Muller says it would be a smart move to build a battery factory. "If more than a quarter of our cars are to be electronic vehicles in the foreseeable future then we are going to need approximately 3 million batteries a year," he says. Volkswagen has agreed to cut 30,000 jobs in its restructuring, while committing to creating 9,000 jobs in Germany through battery manufacturing and mobility services.

Earlier this month, voters in 22 states approved ballot measures adding up to $201 billion in funding for transportation projects, according to the American Road & Transportation Builders Association. California passed 15 transportation measures, including one in Los Angeles worth $120 billion for roads, bridges, and transit. The state of Washington secured $54 billion for light rail and buses. Atlanta approved about $4 billion for road and transit projects. Illinois and New Jersey passed measures to prevent the diversion of transportation user fee revenue to other industries.

A Delaware federal judge ordered the DOE to give the documents – which concern a presentation by Fisker to the DOE in which it falsely claimed to meet milestones set forth in a government loan – to lawyers in a case in which investors claim Fisker lied to them about financial troubles. While the DOE has given over documents already, they were incomplete and heavily redacted. "I understand that such disclosures may have a negative impact on future DOE analyses," says US District Judge Sue Robinson. "but conclude nonetheless that under the circumstances at bar – the public money at stake, the Congressional hearings, and the fact that Fisker Automotive is now a defunct company – the balance of interests favors plaintiffs."
