collector or driver this one is for you. paint on truck box and roof original,interior is in awsome shape with only one little crack on dash one half inch long at seam. Headliner like new, Interior does show some ware with small burns on carpet and drivers seat but the over all condition can prove a lower mile tuck that has been inside most of the time. not original am/fm cassette. miles unknown due to odo stopped at 80550 miles but speedo works,clock doesn't all exterior- interior-dash- lights and signals work. Tires are worn evenly,with 25% tread left.Body shines well,but has little hail damage on roof and hood with some dents on side of box, GLASS is Perfect + WING windows work as they should. You can drive this truck anywhere, as long as you are not in a hurry,they are not impressive with acceleration. I've owned and driven this truck about 10,000 miles in 4 years,unfortunately my recent injury forces me to sell!!! If you are looking for one of these classics please look at the others first, look at the floors, fuel tank,shock towers,front suspension,engine bay,because these ares are not usually in great shape. I mention this not to pick on other trucks but to make you aware that rust and abuse are hard and expensive to fix and you end up with a unstable platform. This truck is the real thing a un-rusted out original, this can't be duplicated.. INSPECTION IS URGED PLEASE SEE THIS OR HAVE SOMEONE SEE THIS BEFORE PURCHASING, and no funny business I really hate- that- and I'm to old to come find you ! NOT Thank you for your consideration GOD BLESS , BILL

VW agrees to halt next-gen rally car development to help others stay in WRC
Sat, 22 Jun 2013Volkswagen has petitioned the FIA to hold on to the current specifications for cars in the World Rally Championship, according to Autosport.com. The move is evidently an effort to keep as many competitors in the sport as possible, despite the fact that using the current spec racers may actually hurt Volkswagen's chances at winning. The three factory teams currently competing in the WRC are at the end of a three-year homologation cycle at the end of 2013, and new cars are expected to bow next year. But developing new racers could cost as much as $4.7 million.
That price tag would put M-Sport (which fields Ford racers) out of the WRC game for 2014 and would put Citroën participation in question as well. VW has already begun work on the next iteration of its Polo R WRC, and the hatch has nabbed four wins in six rounds this season. Now it appears that car won't bow until at least 2015. The FIA has officially agreed to freeze homologation of new WRC cars until the end of next season.
VW investigating Golf water leak discovered by car magazine
Sat, 07 Sep 2013Volkswagen is in a spat with German magazine Auto Bild over claims that its new, seventh-generation Golf may already need a recall. The German weekly reports that new Golfs can leak water into front-passenger footwells due to a faulty drainage tube in their air conditioning systems.
And while the fix itself doesn't sound too terrible, because Volkswagen bases so many cars off the same platform as the Golf, Auto Bild is claiming that 300,000 models could be affected, including the Audi A3 and Seat Leon. That's a very bold claim. For its part, VW is vehemently denying that number, according to Reuters, saying it's aware of the problem and claiming only 46 Golfs need fixing. In addition, it denies that any Audi or Seat models are affected by the issue.
Either way, regardless of how pervasive this leak issue is, North American buyers should rest easy knowing that the problems ought to get fixed by the time the Mk VII Golf finaly reaches our dealerships.
This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.
