1965 Vw Bus Panel on 2040-cars
Hollywood, Florida, United States
|
This panel bus is in amazing shape. The floors have no rust, the body has no rust and is pretty straight. The bus does have a custom paint job done on the early 90s. The paint was done in base coat clear coat and was recently re cleared to preserve the paint. The paint does show some patina and has some runs however it is beautiful and turns a lot of heads. The bus has safari windows and is lowered with drop spindles in the front and a couple of clicks in the rear. The brakes are all new with new wheel cylinders, hoses, shoes, and, master cylinder. The engine is a 1600 single port which runs smooth and starts right up. The transmission is original and shifts well the clutch and flywheel is new. The vehicle has been converted from 6volt charging system to a 12volt system by way of an alternator. Tires in the rear are 205 65 r15 and have less than 600 miles on them, the front tires are 125 r15 and are also new. This bus was just driven to Bug Jam in Pasco County FL which is about a 600 mile round trip drive. I have tried to describe the bus as well as I can, please ask any questions.

Last VW bus ever made arrives at final destination
Fri, 31 Jan 2014A Brazilian politician tried to save it, unsuccessfully, so the final Last Edition Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi was produced on December 20, 2013 and now resides in a vintage museum at Volkswagen's Commercial Vehicles HQ in Hanover, Germany.
The Volkswagen Microbus was built for 56 years, starting in September 1957. Brazil was the last country still assembling it, but new safety regulations in the country requiring airbags and ABS on all cars spelled the end. When that politician introduced a bill that would pardon only the 'Bus from a death sentence, it couldn't garner the required number of votes for passage. The South American country takes the Kombi production title, though, with 1.5 million of the 3.5 million total made in the home of Copacabana beach and the girl from Ipanema.
The VW Bus is dead. Now perhaps we can turn our attentions to the still-not-totally-settled matter of the Bulli...

Lamando is Chinese for VW Jetta CC [w/video]
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Volkswagen is not messing around when it characterizes its new MQB architecture as modular. It's already underpinning the VW Golf, Audi A3, Seat Leon and Skoda Octavia, and will soon form the basis for many more. And here is the latest.
Unveiled at the Chengdu Motor Show in China this weekend is the new Volkswagen Lamando, a four-door coupe similar in size to a Jetta but with the svelter roofline of the larger Passat-based CC to go after the Mercedes-Benz CLA. It's essentially the production version of the New Midsize Coupe concept that previewed its arrival at the Beijing Motor Show this past April, and will be built locally for local consumption by VW's joint venture with SAIC.
Power comes from either a 1.4- or 2.0-liter turbo four mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, with an equivalent price tag below $30,000. Whether this or any similar vehicle ever arrives in North American showrooms remains to be seen, but we'll be watching to find out. In the meantime you can scope it out in the trippy video below and the photos in the gallery above.
