Clean Florida title. In this state, any vehicle older than 10 years, mileage is indicated as 'Exempt'. Odometer shows 55,000. Who knows. The bus is 52 years young.Body is solid.
New tires.
Runs very well. Included is a receipt showing new engine installed at 44,000 miles. Engine is chromed out with 4 exhaust pipes sticking out the back. Neat looking stuff. Terrific sound...
Rear bumper is fitted with a trailer hitch. Previous owner said he used it to pull a small trailer with his ATV one time. Looks as if never used. Yes, it comes with original rear bumper.
Interior appears to have been reupholstered and nicely done.
Four speed stick shift... clutch excellent.
Brakes new.
High octane Pioneer sound system was added... High end speakers included.
I've driven it to 2 car shows... yes, it's quite an attraction.
Comes with car cover.
I bought this on a whim.
I'm an old guy. Getting in and out of it is more than I want to deal with...
If you're looking for a solid VW bus, this is it.
Many thanks for looking.
(Please allow me to explain my crummy feedback score. I had more than 800 100% happy transactions. Then I added a 1985 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit. It had more than 10 bidders.
A gentleman in Slovakia came in minutes before the auction ended. He bid higher by $50 and won the auction. I did all required by eBay... sent the invoice, etc.
No response.
Over the next 4 days, I sent reminders to the winner.
On day 5 he sent a note with 'I'll send a truck with the cash'.
Nothing.
Another 7 days passed.
I notified him that I would accept the second place bid if no word within 24 hours. Still no response.
I sold the car and notified the lad in Slovakia.
He left me the only bad review in my 18 year history dealing on eBay.
There was nothing I could do. I don't know how that one transaction dropped me from 100% satisfaction to 91%.
The truth. It hurt.)
