UP for bid today is a heavy project volkswagen bus! Its one huge plus is that it comes with a lot of parts! Let me list them, TWO engines (apart) one is a 1600 dual port and the other is a 1700 dual carb (no carbs included). Both of the engines are NOT assembled. Most of the pieces are there. The 1600 did run before I took it apart. The rod bearings were showing copper and the crank looks like it needs to be reground. The heads for the 1600 are included and look OK. I can't see any cracks. I will include most of the fan shrouding for both engines plus a 1500 non doghouse shroud from another project. The 1700 was bought from another seller. It had been sitting for awhile and had gotten water into one cylinder. The engine would turn but would stop at one point. This was because the water in the one cylinder had corroded the aluminum of the head and wouldn't allow it to reach TDC. No carbs are included in this sale. The 1700 block, which btw is a type four engine, seems to be fine. Along with the crank. IT doesn't seem like the bottom end of the 1700 needed any machining work but that will be up to the buyer. The bus does have it's windshield. It is located in the back. You will also get two middle seats and the rear seat, two used but good head exchanges for a 1600 and other misc parts! The bus only has 21,000 miles on the transmission! Such a shame for all the body rot.. The rain gutters are probably going to be the hardest to replace. Along with the panel under the windsheild, the doglegs, parts of the floor are gone as well. There is plenty of rust! If you have any questions feel free to email me. The bus and parts are being sold AS A WHOLE LOT. I will not be splitting anything up! Bus needs to be gone by july first so if you have any trouble getting a trailer let me know, we might be able to work something out. Thanks!

Volkswagen Golf voted 2013 European Car of the Year
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf just went on sale in Europe, but it is already off to a promising start. Announced as the Geneva Motor Show kicked off, the newest Golf was named European Car of the Year for 2013 in dominating style over cars like the Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT86 twins, Volvo V40, Ford B-Max and Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
According to Automotive News Europe, the MkVII Golf won handily over its rivals with a total of 414 votes. The Subaru BRZ and Toyota GT86 received 202 votes finishing in a distant second, while the Volvo V40 (189 votes), Ford B-Max (148 votes) and Mercedes-Benz A-Class (138 votes) round out the top five. The new Golf marks the third Volkswagen product to receive the prestigious award with previous cars including the MkIII Golf and the most recent iteration of the Polo.
VW says it has sold over 100,000 TDI diesels in America this year
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Volkswagen Group of America has lit oil-burning fireworks to celebrate the sales of more than 100,000 TDI Clean Diesel vehicles in the US between its VW and Audi brands this year. According to VW, that means it is responsible for more than 75 percent of diesel-engined cars and SUVs sold here - perhaps not surprising when the two brands offer a total of 12 diesel models.
What might be surprising is that the number of diesels isn't far off the estimated sales of 90,000 battery electric vehicles and PHEVs, with 15,000 of those accounted for by the Tesla Model S, another 12,000 or so being the Toyota Prius PHEV.
VW's keen to play up the ease of making diesel part of your life, stressing that it doesn't need any change to the refueling infrastructure and that "this is a technology delivering real answers to society's concerns about fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions without compromises."
Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.
