California id plate still present below Westfalia plate. The bus is arrow strait. There are some minor dings and dents. There is NO BONDO on this van. I chose not to touch up the paint and let the van wear its dings and scrapes with pride. I took the van to a very good detail shop to have the paint polished. It turned out beautiful. This van has been mainly garaged or kept under cover all these years. The battery tray does have some corrosion (not rust).

The heater works extremely well in this bus do to the factory VW bus heater boxes. Rare factory tow hitch. I spent countless hours preserving this rare bus. I have regretfully decided to sell this bus out of my personal collection. I intentionally did not do any paint touch up on the body. I spent hours removing small areas of primer put over the nicks and scratches on the paint to reveal the amazing og paint. I did not clear coat over the dings, instead I keep the bus stored inside my shop and keep a light coat of grease over the nicks and a few of the small dents/scrapes to prevent surface rusting. I know this seems a bit extreme but I wanted to be able to say this bus has 100% original paint. The interior was kept as original as possible. only replacing the seat upholstery, door panels and a few other odds and ends. When you see the pictures of this bus you will see all the imperfections are shown with pride on this bus. There are many things I have done to this bus I have not listed as there is to much to list. With the updated 1776 Super Street motor, freeway flyer transmission and suspension and brake work this bus runs and drives amazing with quite a bit more power and better gearing than stock making this bus perfect for cross country/ long distance driving. No expense or man hours were spared on this build. 1971 is the most sought after year for collectors as its the last year for the upright motor, first year of the disc brakes and still retains the classic bumpers and low lights. Feel free to call with any questions as there is way to much to list. Very hard to find a documented rust free California bus in this kind of original condition. This bus has 85k original miles as documented on the service stickers on the driver side door jamb. This is a no story's bus with no hidden problems like so many other "restored buses" on the market today. This is the perfect center piece for any VW collection. **** I can have this bus shipped to your front door at whole sale cost I also can ship world wide ** Over 270 Additional pictures and information as well as other nice VW buses can be seen on my web site WESTCOASTSAMBA .

Renault to name VW manager Luca De Meo as CEO
Tue, Jan 28 2020PARIS — Renault's board is set to meet later on Tuesday to approve the nomination of Luca de Meo, the former head of Volkswagen's Seat brand, as its next chief executive, two sources familiar with the matter said. The Italian-born executive, who stepped down from Seat earlier this month, is not due to take up his post at the French carmaker until towards July, due to negotiations around his contract, according to one of the sources. Renault declined to comment. De Meo is not expected to face any last minute hurdles in his nomination, and has already won tacit backing from parties including the French government, a Renault shareholder. His appointment fills one of the major gaps left at the firm as it tries to move past a year of turmoil following the 2018 arrest in Tokyo of former boss-turned-fugitive Carlos Ghosn, and reset its strained alliance with Japan's Nissan. Ghosn, who forged and oversaw the Renault-Nissan partnership for almost two decades, has since fled Japan and resettled in Lebanon, from where he has contested the financial misconduct charges against him and said the alliance was at risk of collapse. De Meo, along with Renault Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard, brought in last January from tire maker Michelin, will have his work cut out to turn around the firm. Like rivals, Renault is grappling with a downturn in demand, and has said it expects a slight decline in the car market in Europe, Russia and China this year. The firm has also presented 2020 as a make-or-break year for the alliance with Nissan and is under pressure to deliver on cost savings and joint projects. Automakers face pressure to meet stringent new emissions targets with less polluting models, and are also competing to produce innovations such as self-driving cars, which require large investments. De Meo, who speaks French, will be one of a growing handful of outsiders in senior company jobs in France. The 52-year-old started his career at Renault and has worked at Fiat and Audi among other brands. He is credited with revitalizing sales at Barcelona-based Seat, imbuing it with a more sporty image, though his portfolio will be markedly larger at Renault, whose brands include Dacia and Lada. Renault's finance chief Clotilde Delbos has been CEO on an interim basis since last October, when Thierry Bollore, a former Ghosn ally, was ousted by the board.

Jay Leno brings a rotary-powered VW Beetle to the garage
Mon, Aug 1 2016It takes something really unique or inventive to pique Jay Leno's interest. His show, Jay Leno's Garage, has featured everything from concours-worthy classics to completely custom, home-built machinery. How do you get Leno to feature one of more than 20 million Beetles on his program? Stick a turbocharged rotary engine under the hood. The Beetle's owner, Mario Markakis, swapped the car's stock flat four-cylinder for the Wankel engine from a 1990 Mazda RX-7 Series 5 Turbo. The engine's 250 horsepower are fed through a reinforced version of the Beetle's stock four-speed transmission. That's about five times the original engine's output. It works well, with the car putting down some impressive times at the drag strip. Markakis did most of the work to the Beetle in his garage. In addition to the engine swap, he's modified the car's brakes, suspension, and interior. Check out the video to hear all the details of this custom Wankel-powered Volkswagen.
