This bus is a runner. There are a new core and heads with only 15k on them in the original engine casing. A new clutch has only 15k on it. The rear axles, ditto. A new Bosch fuel pump, 12k. A new alternator and gel battery, 12k. New tires, 5k. New starter and solenoid, new injectors, 5k. Brakes are in great shape.
This bus runs and drives tip-top. The tranny is smooth and steady. The front end is tight with absolutely no play in the wheel. The body has been completely restored and painted. Any rust has been totally eradicated. It looks brand new. The frame and all joints, tie rods, etc. are original and in perfect condition. Zero rust. The new engine has been maintained with serious attention to detail. The valves have been cared for. This bus has never been overheated and has always been driven properly as the VW engine asks for. There is a nice system in this bus with a JVC deck, Bluetooth with hands-free mic, sub, amp and the rear speakers are in boxes with 15 ft of cable each so the party can be brought outside. It has a Fiamma two-bike rear rack that will carry any bikes, even a pair of 29-er mountain bikes. The canvas in the pop-top is flawless and the screen is brand new, I replaced it myself. The back-crippling fold-down rear bench seat has been removed and replaced by a memory foam bed that is (forgive the pun) a dream to sleep on. This bus is ready to travel right now with one or two people. When I built the custom bed I left the fold-down frame intact for anyone who would like to re-install the bench for passengers. I also removed the fridge/stove/sink unit as I found it senseless and in the way. These can be bought online and re-installed with four bolts if anyone should desire. What you've got here is a mechanically super-sound bus with a no-rust body that drives like a champ. This is hard to find. With a little re-modeling inside you've got that original Westy look.

Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show
Mon, 05 Mar 2012The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.
Volkswagen reveals Beetle GSR, R-Line convertible and two special GTIs
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Volkswagen has chosen to really expand its performance-tuned portfolio at this year's Chicago Auto Show, bringing along a couple of new Beetles destined for model year 2014, as well as a pair of freshened GTI packages that you'll be able to buy almost right away.
The first, and splashiest of the Chicago goodies on the VW stand has got to be the 2014 Volkswagen Beetle GSR. Don't lose your temper, Acura Integra geeks; in this case, GSR stands for "Gelb Schwarzer Renner" or "Yellow Black Racer," and harkens back to a sport-tuned classic Beetle from the 1970s. For the 2014 iteration, the GSR gets a 210-horsepower version of VW's 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder. That engine is enough to push the Beetle to 60 miles per hour in 6.6 seconds, and up to a top speed of 130 mph.
Of course, you'll have long-since noticed the shockingly yellow-and-black livery before you stumble across the Turbo badge on the rear deck. The GSR gets 19-inch alloy wheels, 235-section tires and a tea-tray rear spoiler, but it's the paint and graphics package that will decide if this is your (lemony) cup of tea. Things don't get any subtler inside the car, either, as VW has carried the colorway through to the interior, as well. Only 3,500 Beetle GSRs will be produced, with just more than half of those going to the US - call your dealer today, Wiz Khalifa.
Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision
Tue, 11 Dec 2012It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.
Check out the press release below for your day's dose of jargon and all the winners.
