Description
My son bought this bus 3 years ago when he hoped to travel the country. Now he has decided that med school is the goal instead and needs money. He has loved this bus and it has been a very dependable, fun ride. Driving it the past few years really replaced his shyness with confidence since people talk to him everywhere he goes. Everyone has a VW story it seems!
We have the original VW service record showing its birth in Sept. 1970, travels through France, Italy, Spain, etc. and its arrival in the US. It will also come with a binder of maintenance receipts and the VW official service manual. We will be happy to give you our mechanic's info to discuss the bus before you buy and of course, you are welcome to come test drive it. We may even be able to meet you if we're a little too far for you or at an airport.
We have done a lot to the inside and mechanics of the bus, but my son loved the outside so we did not do much to it. If you wanted a good paint job, it does have some rust around the windows and wheel wells and you would want to replace the window seals if not at least one window. The camper is in good shape, but there are a few holes in the tent screens.
What has been done on the inside:
Everything was removed. There was a rust spot on the floor behind the front seats so a new metal panel was welded in. Then the entire inside had a rust coating and paint. "Fat mat" insulation was installed over that for noise and heat reduction. New flooring, carpet, side panels, headliner, and curtains were added and the seats were recovered. The spare tire was added to the front of the bus for added room inside. New rubber seals were put on the 2 front doors, sliding door, back hatch, engine compartment, and camper top. The support bars for the front seat hammock are included, but there is no hammock.
Mechanically:
When we first got it, we found an awesome guy at Kenny's VW Repair in Hudson, FL. It ran well at the time, but I asked him to do everything it needed to keep it safe and dependable for my son. He was awesome and he has continued to do oil changes, tune ups, and anything it needed along the way. We got 5 new tires that he recommended from The Bus Depot at the time. They have lots of life left. Receipts are in the binder that goes with the bus.
We could only add 24 pics. Call 352-341-0113 for more pics or for a test drive. All questions welcome.
