1968 De Luxe double slider (!!) project bus asking £3000,-

[Two Eleven]

Due to a serious lack of time to start, let alone finish this project, i'm offering my very, very rare january '68 DeLuxe walkthrough with double sliding doors and no sliding roof for sale.

It has the following M-codes:
M47-backup lights
M56-steering lock
M130-without steel sliding roof
M520-sliding door on both sides
M543-without seats in passenger area

Don't know why anybody would order a double slider DeLuxe without a rear seat, and there is a rear bench installed, but that was done some years ago by a previous owner.

downsides:
-The bus has rust in the familiar spots (doglegs, sills, bottom of front, rear arches). I have a collection of sheetmetal that comes with the bus, some aftermarket, some genuine VW, and even some NOS parts.
-No engine
-No engine lid
-No rear bumper (and some other small parts)

upsides:
-Includes complete De Luxe-trim, including bumpertrim
-rustfree roof, pillars and gutters (in perfect shape!)
-Comes with original seats and all door cards (two-tone grey with chrome trim, all complete)
-De Luxe instruments and clock
-Comes with two very good cabin doors (Cali-import)

Since the car is in storage, it is hard to make pictures. I can make some on request.
There is a serious amount of work in this bus, but i'll guarantee you that when it's done you'll be the only one at ANY meeting in the "68 Deluxe double slider"-section 8)

Car is in Holland, about an hour's drive from the port of Rotterdam.
