This is a 1965 11 window bus. It is pretty much complete. Missing the middle seat and horn. Has both bumpers, rear isnt mounted. It had a 1600 dual port motor in it but it turned out it had a broken cam so i put this older 40hp motor in it. If you keep this motor in it the starter will need swapped out as the whole electrical system is 12V and the flywheel is 6V. Also the generator and fan will need to be switched to 12V. But the motor will run. needs an exhaust. The complete front floor has been replaced and everything underneath it was sanded all the way down and painted to prevent rust. Parts of the cargo floor will need replacing, mainly the outer 10 inches which has been cut out already. I have a replacement panel for that section. The frame is good all around. It has the usual rocker rust. The bottoms of all the doors, doglegs, roof sills are all solid. I have both front seats and the rear seat. The front seats will need reupholstered, the rear is in pretty good shape. I also have most of the interior panels but those have seen better days. The rear apron is there. I have a roofrack that could be included also. The greenish paint is chipping off and the original sea blue is underneath, with some work the blue would come through. The green comes off quite easily. The brakes should be gone through, but with some fluid and a good bleeding they will still work. Feel free to email or call with any questions. email-Lennon5909@yahoo.com phone 815-440-0528

Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash
Thu, 11 Oct 2012After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."
Production Volkswagen Taigun crossover caught in patent filing?
Wed, 01 May 2013Volkswagen brought an angular, bulldog-like small crossover concept called Taigun to the São Paulo motor show last year, claiming that it wanted to gauge interest in the design before making a decision about production. If a new report with alleged leaked patent images is to be believed, then, interest must have been pretty high.
China's Auto.Sohu.com has published this group of Taigun images, claiming that they have been sourced from the Chinese patent office and that the subcompact VW utility based on the Up! has been cleared for production.
If all of that is true, and if these images are representative of the final product, you'll see that designers haven't done much to alter the concept car's appearance. Comparing, shot for shot, with the images we have from Brazil, we see that even small details like roof rack-mounted lights and exhaust tips integrated in the rear fascia have been carried over. Take a closer look for yourself in the attached galleries.
1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool
Tue, 04 Jun 2013There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
