Hello. You are looking at my 1971 Westy. I have been working on her for quite some time. I had the Engine rebuilt 3500 miles ago. She Pures like a kitten. She has been sitting for over a year now and I charged the battery and she started right up with no smoke. We had her painted about 2 years ago and we have kept here in a storage building ever since. We have been working on our house so we have not had time to enjoy her. I know she will need a brake job and before we parked her we had some play in the steering wheel and we think that is a ball joint or something like that. We had a brand new floor put down as well. This is real Bamboo flooring. It is very nice. The Top Tent was replaced so it has no rips and or tears and or stains. The cot/bed up above has a tear in it so you will need to replace that. The back seat folds down in to a bed. The front seats are torn but they are original . You can buy covers real cheap that look like the real thing. The Front window was leaking and we did not notice until its to late. There is a small rusty floor under the driver feet. You can see it in the photos. You can buy that panel for $36.00 so that will not be bad at all. It was leaking around the windshield and when we painted we changed the gasket and she is all fixed up. This bus was a factory A/C bus but the compressor was taken off and we can not find it. You can see under the bus that the rest is pretty dang solid for its age and looks and shines up real nice. The tires have about 60 % tread left on them. They are beginning to dry rot so I would replace them at some time soon. My family owns a Tire shop and I am willing to sell you them what ever they cost at Wholesale pricing. I do not have the back Bumper. We took it off to paint and we moved and cant find it. I don't think you will find one in this shape. I am sorry I do not take paypal because of the fees. I will take cash in person or a wire Transfer. I am willing to ship to you but the expense is yours. Please see the payment terms. If you have 0 or negative feedback I will delete your bids unless you contact me first. Thank you very much and good luck.

European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel
Fri, 26 Apr 2013Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
