One hole through metal on passenger rear quarter (shown in pictures). The Bus was located in Asheville,Nc after being painted by previous owner. Has H4 headlights, which make bulb replacement easy. HID lights(Google if you dont know what they are, most new vehicles have them standard. Comes with New door panels and window handles. Has a Stainless steel header and muffler from Taiwan, should last longer than the bus itself. Engine runs good, fuel injected with new Fuel Lines, and filter. Has a new front rubber mat, kick panels, Nice stereo and speakers, electronic ignition in distributor, and new electronic key part a few months ago. Canvas is nice, some may not like the holes in the very top corners, only cosmetic problem on them. Nice cloth seats and wood floor. Cabinets need to be stained on the inside and sink is dirty( I will try to clean and stain inside the cabinets before sold). Has new vapor line and filler neck hoses, also have a outside window scraper that will come with it uninstalled. Door panels will not be installed, new owner can install them. I was waiting to put the outside window scraper on before putting the door panels in, due to the glass needing to be removed to replace window scrapper.(Please google vw bus outside window scraper if needed.)

THIS IS A CAMPER NOT A SHOW BUS!! Im part of Fullmoonbusclub,dot,com and use this to camp not Car Shows. I've driven this bus to South Carolina and Western North Carolina multiple times 4-6 hours in a day to camp with no Engine problems.It is air-cooled, so on very hot days breaks are needed! And i do take them around every 1- 1.5 hours for it to cool down and not ruin things! In winter ive run it 3-4 hours straight going 67-72 on the Interstate with no issues, some wouldn't recommend this, but i see no issue if it is maintained and running properly !!!! I can help deliver if you are located within 6 hours of Raleigh,NC( By that i will require gas money for travel). This Bus is my third Classic Volkswagen, I will miss it alot but currently need the money for my first baby on the way! Happy Bidding and please contact me if you have questions or would like to make an offer. Additional PICTURES!!!!!! HERE http://volkswagenbus77.imgur.com/ |

Porsche 911 with VW turbodiesel prepares for LeMons assault
Fri, 21 Mar 2014LeMons racing is a wonderful example that setting limits can actually breed creativity. The series mandates that all entries must cost $500, not counting safety equipment, and that cap forces teams to be ingenious in how they build a racecar. Take for example this diesel-powered Porsche 911, which its creators have dubbed Ferkel the Nein-11, that will be racing in the Sears Pointless race this weekend in Sonoma, California.
This Frankenstein combines a 911 chassis that was originally bought just for its European powertrain and a Volkswagen TDI diesel engine mounted in the rear. After deciding the shell could still be of some use, the team decided to go racing. "We began brainstorming what replacement drivetrain to use for maximum offense and there was really only one answer: a diesel," said Philipp von Weitershausen, one of the team captains, to Jalopnik. They bought a 1998 Jetta TDI on the cheap and started figuring out a way to hack the engine into the bay. To pay respect to the donor, the VW's trunk was highly modified (and drilled) and grafted onto the back of Ferkel.
This team isn't a newcomer to LeMons. Its last car was a classic VW Beetle with a Subaru engine and dual controls, named Ferdinand the Bug, which could be driven from the left or right side. It's quite a sight.
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.
Happy 60th to the VW Karmann Ghia
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Volkswagen's product portfolio may be as extensive these days as any other carmaker in the business. But if you still think of the original Beetle as synonymous with the brand, that's probably because a) you're old and b) the Beetle was the company's only product until the mid-50s.
Sixty years ago Wilhelm Karmann (founder of the eponymous coachbuilder) was in Paris for the auto salon and met up with Luigi Segre and his team from Carrozzeria Ghia who showed him what was essentially a "Beetle in a sports coat." A month later they showed it to Volkswagen chief Heinrich Nordhoff who, setting aside his conservative tastes, approved it for production. And so the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was born, giving the German marque a second product line. It still used Beetle mechanicals and was built at the same Karmann factory in Onsabrück that was already assembling the Beetle Cabriolet.
It took another couple of years to put the design into production, but from 1955 to 1974, Volkswagen and Karmann built 362,601 coupes and 80,881 of the subsequent convertible that arrived in 1957. Today the Onsabrück factory is part of the VW Group, handling production of the Golf Cabriolet, XL1 and Porsche Boxster and Cayman, and with that original Karmann Ghia prototype as part of its factory collection.
