1967 Vw 21 Window Sunroof Deluxe Type Ii Bus Volkswagen Samba on 2040-cars
Gainesville, Florida, United States
1967 VOLKSWAGEN 21-WINDOW DELUXE MICROBUS All interior panels are the original, Aero Papyrus
material, which is not available in reproduction form. It still has the
original spare tire cover, though it has a tear. The side kick-panel for the
correct two-thirds middle seat is missing. All the mats, both front and back
rubber mats, as well as the sisal mat in the cargo area are original to the
bus. The fuel gauge, wipers, lights, signals, and flashers work perfectly. The
clock was working until recently (contacts probably just need cleaning). I have
not tried to use the washer bottle, but the setup is all there and in very good
condition. It still has the original 12 volt sticker on the dash. The glass is
all original. The passenger windshield has a “baseball” crack, but the previous
owner was waiting to find a correctly marked replacement. This is a December
'66 bus, so it doesn’t have backup lights and has the ’66-style radio knobs.
Otherwise, it exhibits all the '67, one-year-only, bus characteristics, 12v,
etc. The seats were redone years ago using Lenny Copp, West Coast Classic seat
covers, which are still in very good condition. The pop-outs were removed,
frames resprayed Cumulus White and all new rubber was installed last year. A
fresh single-port 1600 engine was rebuilt and installed by Jeff Leininger of
Jeff's Bug Shop, Houston, in 2006. It currently has approximately 10,000 miles
since the rebuild. It runs very well and has been as reliable as a Swiss watch.
At about the same time, the brakes, master cylinder, drums, wheel bearings, tie
rods, and other suspension components were rebuilt or replaced. It has a fairly
fresh set of tires (fronts 2013, rears 2012). It has a fresh battery, generator
and regulator. The prior owner has driven it, along with his family, to Bulli
Brigade (annual national VW event in St. Petersburg, FL) regularly since 2006,
including last November without incident. The guiding philosophy during my
and the previous owner’s ownership was to leave this bus as untouched and
original as possible, knowing and appreciating that they are only original
ONCE! Except for fixing things as needed to keep the body, interior and running
gear in tip-top shape, that philosophy has been honored. To that end, one could
hop inside and drive anywhere with confidence. This bus will not disappoint!! (Note: Some of the photos do not show the 2/3 middle seat. It was only removed for the photo so it would not obstruct. It IS shown in one photo as it currently installed. This is the proper "1967-only" 2/3 middle seat with the '67-only ashtray on the back of it and IT IS INCLUDED in the sale!)

Therefore, I reserve the right to cancel bids and end this eBay listing early if the vehicle sells through those efforts and the reserve amount has not yet been met. |

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.
VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines
Sun, 16 Feb 2014The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.
