1977 VW BUS CAMPMOBILE WESTFALIA

You are looking at a perfect example of a 1977 Westfalia Campmobile in outstanding condition... Like stepping back in time!

I am the second owner of this true barn find from California which I purchased in 2006.

This bus is and has always been 100% road worthy.  I have done all maintenance myself and have had ZERO issues mechanically.  I would not hesitate to drive this bus anywhere in the world tomorrow!

It runs great and starts every time in all weather conditions. 

Idles perfectly, great compression in all cylinders, upgraded electronic ignition. Newer matching fuel pump (still has all Fuel Injection working 100%), newer coil. newer battery. Very good fuel economy - mid 20's mpg. Odometer shows 20,300 miles, however, that is actually 120,300.

Transmission shifts very clean in all gears, never pops out. Front disk brakes, rear drum all in good shape.  She stops straight on a dime.
Suspension is also great, drives perfectly straight and smooth with just one finger on the wheel.  She wears top rated Hankook tires with only a few thousand miles on them. Includes matching spare as well. I also had the gas tank removed in 2007.. it was sandblasted and treated with lifetime material so there will never be "rust in the gas" issue that many older VW's experience.  The fuel injection system runs 100% smooth and gets low to mid 20 mpg consistently.

Exterior looks awesome, the bus was repainted in 2006 with original Chrome yellow VW paint, and also had a new canvas installed at the same time. All original glass in great condition.

Accident free bus. just a few tiny spots of surface rust near original window rubber (only the front windshield rubber has been replaced)... which can be very easily repaired (if you wanted to make this a perfect showroom type bus).  This bus would win nearly any show entered in as is.  Might be the finest looking and running bus east of the Mississippi :)

All electrical working.

This is an unmolested bus which has not been restored.  what you see is what you get... NO hidden problems.

Also includes:

- Original carpet front and back. 

- Original plaid upholstery (I do have a roll of original plaid which will be included in sale if ever needed) 

- Original like new rear hatch mosquito net. 

- Original child's cot or hammock for front cabin. 

- Dual Battery set-up (power is drawn from second battery while camping)

- Small solar panel for trickle charging while camping.

- 400 watt DC to AC inverter with 2 outlets.

- Tachometer, Oil temperature and Dakota Digital Cylinder head temperature gauges.

I have done my best to describe the vehicle... Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request additional photos or videos.
I am sure the winning bidder will be 100% satisfied with this classic!  GOOD LUCK!!!

I am located near BOSTON, Massachusetts. 02066. all INTERNATIONAL BUYERS WELCOME - I CAN ASSIST WITH SHIPPING TO ANYWHERE WORLDWIDE at buyers expense.

This is a nearly 40 year old vehicle and is sold in AS IS condition with no warranties expressed or implied.

Porsche-Piech buy 10% stake in VW's holding company

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

In August, 2009, as the scuttled merger of Porsche and Volkswagen had gone bad and Porsche was backed up against the ropes, Porsche Automobil Holding SE (PAHSE) relinquished a ten-percent stake in itself to Qatar Holdings as well as options it held on 17 percent of VW shares. The sale meant that, for the first time since the founding of the company 61 years before, an entity outside the Porsche and Piech families had a say in the running of PAHSE.
Buying that ten-percent stake back returns full ownership to the two families, the holding company's sole possession being ownership of 50.7 percent of VW's common shares. The price paid wasn't disclosed, but at market rates the purchase would be worth close to $1.25 billion. Qatar intends to hold onto the 17-percent stake it has in Volkswagen.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
