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. If you have any questions, or would like more pictures via email, feel free to call me at 307 413 6951 anytime. Or email me at rcsloan87@gmail.com |

VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.
Volkswagen Golf Wagon caught completely uncovered
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Without a lot of information to go with them, our camera-toting spies have captured some new images of a Volkswagen Golf wagon variant that is almost completely undisguised. In fact, the one piece of camouflage on the tidy wagon would probably have gone unnoticed to most casual viewers. Look closely at the rear three-quarter view of the car and you'll notice that the apparent taillight clusters are actually fakes - the outline of the real units is faintly visible behind the blue bodywork and the sticker-like fake taillights.
It's a good guess then, that this Golf wagon (called a Golf Kombi by our spy photographer) is a prototype that's pretty far along in the development cycle for Volkswagen. We can't be sure what impact this will have on the company's small wagon offering here in the US, but we'd be pretty surprised if something very like this didn't end up as the next Jetta SportWagen. We might well have more information on that front, after we visit Geneva next week.
VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
