1982 Volkwagen Vanagon. Made in Germany!
1.6 Na Diesel. Original. These are VERY rare. Only imported to the US in 82, and a few in 83. I believe there were only about 2000 of them. So this is or will be a collectors car.
Runs Amazingly! gets about 27 mpg... for a van that is great (the gas ones only get about 17) Body isn't perfect but good and straight. Runs on biodiesel or diesel. Has all new fuel lines for biodiesel. Also will run on Filtered Veg oil (Svo Wvo) from the heated aux tank.
4 speed manual works great. No power options (Meaning No power options to fix!)

Transmission and Clutch work Great
Tires still have lots of treat.
Brake Pads are still at about 80+%.
Swivel captain's chairs. Screen for the back hatch.
New Cd player and bigger back Speakers, Ipod/Iphone charger/hookup for radio
I've owned it for about 4 yrs and love it. And as you can see put a lot of love into it.
Oregon tags are good till 12-2014. Clean, clear title in hand.
Paid $6900 for it, and I've put about $7000 worth of work into it. I've also only put about 6K miles on it.
So this is a great deal!
Needs:
-Paint job
-new fan motor for the cabin heater before next winter. About $140. Unless you don't mind being cold.
-Dash light
*Also has a professionally installed Greasecar Vegetable Fuel Systems svo/wvo 10 gal heated aux tank. System works great, but the actual tank has a slow leak that will need to be repaired. Easy welding fix. This system cost around $1700 and is very nice and easy to use. And it works great, but will need the tiny hole in tank fixed. Save a ton $ with this!!!
Ready to go for summer adventures and camping. Oh yah full size bed in back (reupholstered), and popup bed up top.
No stove/fridge/sink.... just more room inside and less weight. I've fit 3 full size bikes in there!
Thanks,
Johnny

An inside look at VW's new California R&D center
Thu, 18 Oct 2012Less than two months ago, the Volkswagen Group opened a new facility in Oxnard, California (about an hour's drive west of Los Angeles). The $27 million investment, touted as Test Center California (TCC), serves as a research and development lab testing emissions for all brands under Volkswagen's umbrella, including its newest member, Porsche. While still not fully operational, we toured the new 64,000-square-foot building last week and had a first-hand opportunity to see just how much work is involved testing engines and meeting increasingly stringent government emissions standards.
Replacing a similar facility established in 1990 in Westlake Village (about 20-minutes east of the new location), our guide explained how Oxnard was chosen for its temperate climate, varied regional terrain for test drives and low altitude. (The area is only a few feet above sea level - a critical parameter when instrument testing emissions.) The new facility is capable of analyzing hundreds of vehicles, prototypes and customer-owned vehicles, annually.
Most interesting to us was the huge stainless steel climate chamber, with a massive four-wheel dynamometer that allows VW to test running vehicles in both scorching desert and freezing climates without ever leaving the building (an Audi Q7 was running in place during our visit). We were also mesmerized by the countless storage tanks and intricate plumbing of chemicals, stored in both liquid and gas states, needed to perform the variety of tests. Lastly, we took a look at Bugatti's service center on the west coast, located completely within the new center. While there were no supercars on site, the facility is equipped with plenty of spare forged wheels (mounted with expensive Michelin PAX tires) and a Veyron-specific repair jig that allows the vehicle to be completely disassembled, if needed. It is a shame that the facility, which set off all of our automotive geek alerts, is closed to the public.
Skoda racing Up! to Worthersee with Citigo Rally concept
Thu, 17 May 2012If you thought the Volkswagen Group was about to wind down the endless stream of concept cars based on the new Up! city car, think again. Because not only is the Volkswagen brand itself keeping the train a-moving, so are its sister brands.
Skoda has its own version of the Up called the Citigo. But what racing fans know the Czech subsidiary for best is its rally program that has become a dominant force in the Intercontinental Rally Challenge and the basis for VW's own foray into the World Rally Championship. Now Skoda is bringing the two together with an exciting concept car previewed by the rendering above and confirmed in the press release below.
Following in the footsteps of the tantalizing Fabia roadster unveiled last year, the Citigo Rally concept is to be the centerpiece of the Skoda display at the Volkswagen Group's annual hot-hatch gathering at Lake Wörthersee in Austria. Details are scarce, but the show car will feature rally-inspired bodywork complete with 18-inch white alloys packed into aggressively flared wheel arches, a substantial rear wing and vents aplenty.
TN politicians may push to end VW incentives if plant goes union
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Volkswagen's Chattanooga Assembly Plant is scheduled to vote on whether to unionize in the coming days, but Tennessee state lawmakers are threatening to deny future tax subsidies to the factory, if the vote is successful. The factory is currently the only Volkswagen plant worldwide that is not unionized.
The states's Republican lawmakers have been particularly vocal against the union vote. Tennessee state senator Bo Watson said during a press conference that VW would have a "very tough time" with future incentives if the vote were successful, according to Automotive News. Tennessee House Majority Leader Gerald McCormick said the "heavy hand" of the UAW is not welcome there. VW has drawn criticism from both sides because it has allowed both pro- and anti-union groups to speak to workers and hand out leaflets.
Roughly 1,500 factory employees will vote on whether to unionize from February 12-14. If successful, the Chattanooga factory would be the first in the US organized under a German-style works council system where white- and blue-collar workers directly negotiate factory issues with the company's management.
