Here is a real dinosaur that has finally become worth something. I bought this bus in 2001 in Kingman, AZ where it had been sitting for 15 years. It had 67,000 original miles when I bought it. I got it running and turned it into my daily driver. It replaced the 1963 split window that I had been driving since 1989. That is another story. Now the bus has 80,000 original miles. It has a new battery, new CV boots, and new brakes (shoes in the front, wheel cylinders all around and a new master cylinder). There is very little rust on this bus. Any rust you see in the pictures is only surface rust. At some time in the past it was in a collision which pushed in the front drivers side, and someone put some body filler to patch it up. The interior was also replaced with heavy insulation to make it better for running in the hot AZ desert. The front seats need reupholstered, so they have seat covers. The body is completely original. The motor is stock with a high volume oil pump, and the cylinder heads have cast iron valve guides in them. I took good care of this bus, just like I did the others that I've owned in the past. Every 1500 miles I tuned the motor and greased the wheel bearings and front end. I used STP at every oil change, and adjusted the valves when the oil pressure started to drop. That's the only way I found that worked when running in the desert.
Other than that what you see is what you get!!

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?
Wed, 30 Jan 2013More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."
2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible gets the R-Line treatment
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Volkswagen just launched the topless Beetle Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, but we're already seeing the next step forward in the topless Bug range with this, the R-Line. We'll admit, this treatment falls under the "all show and no go" category, but it's still a pretty potent little cutie.
The R-Line starts with a standard Beetle Turbo Convertible but adds unique 19-inch aluminum wheels on lower-profile tires, LED daytime running lamps and Xenon headlamps. Naturally, there are R-Line badges aplenty both on the interior and exterior, and we must say, the whole package looks pretty darn snazzy.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but when it goes on sale later this year, the hotter convertible will join Volkswagen's growing R-Line portfolio that now includes the CC, Beetle hatch, Tiguan and Touareg.
