Your Bidding on a Early '69 Poptop Westfalia Walk Through Camper 


This particular bus left the factory on Jan. 21, 1969 and was sold through San Francisco here in Northern California.      

Original Owners Manual and Camping Manual  say that it was sold New in San Jose at  " Bob Himsl " on March 21, 1969, it also has Original Plastic sleeve that both manuals slip in from this same Dealer .

The bus is pretty complete with most of it's Original camper interior and is Rock Solid .   The only visible signs of rust are around battery tray (Common) and a very small spot on driver front floor. There are some very small bubbles on passenger side windshield.  Underneath is very nice looking along with rockers, doglegs, jack supports, nose, etc.

The bus has been Off the road for the last few years, but recently was put back on the road.  It has California current registration and according to receipts had a New Engine less then 1600 miles back at 18481, current milage now is 20007  .   The Engine receipt is dated April of 2003 for a total cost of $ 1756.31.   It is a brand new case and is blank along with new heads. 

The bus sports it's Original California black plates that it started life out with back in March of '69.  This is truely rare these days, and '69 is the last year for black plates in our state.

The bus is pretty straight but does have a few battle scars from a combination of bad drivers, both rear corners have some dents as visable in pics. also a small one up front.

Some of the interor wood should be replaced, as well as it needs a new poptop seal. Both front seats need new seat covers. Previous owner put some white rattle can on front floors the day before I bought it, this should come off with some lacquer thinner.

The bus has it's original mosquito net ,rear netting and childs cot, all rear upholstry seems to be Original.

The bus does run and drive as I have said earlier but it does need a small mechanical service on brakes, and all usual things needed when making a car a daily driver again. 

The bus is really a good one for someone to restore or make it there weekend warrior. Extremley tough to find a early Bay Westy like this anymore and a true california black plate bus from new .

Also the bus comes with it's " Birth Certificate " from Volkswagen in Germany showing how it started out life.

I have a link to over 100 pics if anyone wants to see detailed pics

Shipping to Europe is not a problem, I have a shipper and the Port of Oakland is only 45 minutes away.


* I have a correct Westfalia tent from this vintage in my private stock, the winner of the auction has the oppertunity to buy it for an additonal cost.

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.

Volkswagen adding R-Line trim to Touareg, Tiguan for 2014

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

Volkswagen introduced its aggressive R-Line appearance package on the CC and Beetle last year, but later this year, this treatment will also be applied to VW's crossovers, the Tiguan and Touareg. Both sporty-looking utility vehicles will be unveiled next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
The 2014 Tiguan R-Line comes standard with bi-xenon headlights and LED daytime running lights, and the package adds 19-inch wheels, grey fender extensions, body-color side skirts and a liftgate spoiler. Inside, the R-Line adds a flat-bottom sport steering wheel with paddle shifters, a black headliner and numerous metallic trim accents such as the stainless scuff plates, the aluminum pedals and metallic finish on the instrument and door panels. The Tiguan R-Line will be offered in front- and all-wheel drive configurations.
As for the 2014 Touareg R-Line (shown above), this model gets an ever more distinctive look with an aggressive front fascia, 20-inch wheels and dual oval-shaped exhaust outlets in addition to the painted side skirts and LED taillights. Similar metallic interior trim pieces found inside the Tiguan R-Line will also make their way into the Touareg as well as gloss black accents on the instrument panel and center stack.

The Volkswagen booth at this year's Chicago Auto Show was filled with various special edition models of the Beetle and GTI. In addition to the GTI Wolfsburg Edition, the Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition helps to wrap up the 2013 model year as VW readies the all-new MkVII Golf next year.

Starting price for the 2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition is $29,695 with the six-speed manual and $30,795 if you choose the DSG - both prices exclude destination charges.
