1969 VW Bus Westfalia 
This is a unique one of a kind custom restored bay window bus. We purchased and restored this one owner NEVADA bus (for my son who is 18) that is now off to college and needs a car with a/c. Our loss is your gain. Bummed but certainly not desperate.

This is a super clean and straight, safe and solid 98% restored bus. This is a "TOP 20 of Show" winner and a very reliable daily driver. It has an original Nevada title and hence has little to no rust issues. Bus has current Nevada registration and Nevada tags. Camper pop-top was removed for a "beachy hard-top classic look". This Bus also has a new custom interior by Gene Gonzalez along with a state of the art sound system complete with blue tooth and a 10" base box that rocks.
Photos speak for themselves.

We (Me, my son and his Uncle) spent nearly 2 years rebuilding and restoring this bus. Basically went through each and every aspect of it and either renewed or replaced with new OEM parts. Too many to list but we do have most all receipts and records. New parts and components list available upon request for any and all serious buyers.

PAINT/ BODY
This one owner bus was stripped down to the shell, media blasted and then given a professional 2 stage window out paint job by Premier Auto Customs with no orange peel (There is small dings on back left corner. Nothing a bit of touch up paint couldn't fix). The bus was repainted the classic two tone look using the original VW Montana Red and off-white. Under carriage was sand blasted and we addressed the minimum rust issues it had. We then prepped and painted it as well. Installed over $300 in dyna-mat alone.
Original chrome bumpers, detailed front beam , all new suspension, shocks, cv joints, brake lines and much, much more. All window & door seals were replaced with OEM German seals. Custom white european dash (cracking near the bottom by the parking brake) and hand painted steering wheel and brand new windshield too. Mom even made us add a deluxe custom frontal impact roll cage to the interior for her baby boys safety.

INTERIOR
This interior is a custom Gene Gonzalez design. The front seats were taken apart, re-stuffed and reupholstered. All seats have custom seat belts, no rips and are in near mint condition. All cabinets have been taken out and the bench seat has been extended to both sides. All interior panels were replaced with matching white panels. Custom white headliner too.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
Completely re-built 1600. Was a single port that we converted to dual port. New carb, distributer, alternator, battery, fly wheel , muffler exhaust, etc, etc. Painted the tins to match the bus. See Photos link above

So as you can tell this is not your average '69 Westfalia Bus. This bus is in excellent condition with little to no rust. This was a full two year restoration. This bus has been garaged. Interior is in amazing shape and brand new. However,the bus still needs a couple of things. Namely a clock in the dash, rear view mirror, heater knobs and assorted knick knack stuff. This bus is a time capsule that you just don't see every day. This bus would be the perfect center piece for any VW collection. This bus can be used for car shows and or a daily driver. Feel free to call with additional questions.

I have pictures before and after the restore. Come drive this sweet piece of nostalgia!

VW GTI Clubsport Concept celebrates model's 40th birthday with 261 hp

Sat, May 9 2015

Volkswagen is celebrating the four-decade milestone for the GTI with the world debut of the GTI Clubsport concept at the annual Worthersee festival in Austria. While the version in these sketches is just a prototype, European buyers at least are set to get a production model in early 2016. The Clubsport is essentially a way for VW to split the difference between the already well-liked GTI and the hotter Golf R. In concept form, it packs 261 horsepower, compared to 220 hp from the standard version in the US with the Performance Package or 292 hp from the R. A temporary overboost function even lets the Clubsport make about 10 percent more power for short periods. Beyond just the mechanical upgrades, the concept in these sketches also wears a revised lower air dam at the front with a mesh grille and big strakes at the corners, and there's a new roof spoiler and rear diffuser at the back. VW also promises a more "individualized" interior. Unfortunately, the North America might not be getting this more powerful GTI. "There are no plans to bring the car to the US currently," VW spokesperson Mark Gillies told Autoblog. At this time, VW only has info about the Clubsport in German, which you can take a look at below. Related Video: Weltpremiere des Golf GTI Clubsport am Worthersee Exklusives Jubilaumsmodell zum 40. Geburtstag des GTI Golf GTI Clubsport debutiert mit 265 PS und Boost-Funktion Im kommenden Jahr feiert der Golf GTI seinen 40. Geburtstag. Volkswagen wird dieses historische Ereignis mit einem progressiven Jubilaumsmodell adeln: dem neuen Golf GTI Clubsport. In Form einer seriennahen Studie wird Volkswagen den Golf GTI Clubsport bereits am 14. Mai 2015 als Weltpremiere im Rahmen des legendaren GTI-Treffens am Worthersee prasentieren. Mit einer Leistung von 195 kW / 265 PS (plus 35 PS gegenuber dem Golf GTI Performance*) sowie einer temporar dank Boost-Funktion nochmals um rund 10 Prozent hoheren Spitzenleistung soll der Golf GTI Clubsport Anfang 2016 als der bis dato starkste jemals in Serie gebaute „GTI" durchstarten. Das Jubilaumsmodell wird nicht nur mit einem extrem leistungsstarken Motor, sondern mit einem individualisierten Interieur und exklusiven Karosseriedetails auf den Markt kommen. Zu den Design-Modifikationen gehoren ein komplett neuer Frontstoss-fanger, neue Seitenschweller, ein ebenfalls neuer und aerodynamisch hoch innovativer Dachkantenspoiler sowie ein eigens entwickelter Heckdiffusor.

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.
