Volkswagen T2 early bay window - 1972 'L' reg tin top camper / day van
This is the rarer, low light, crossover, type 2 combi model with factory fitted side windows.
In excellent A1 condition all round.
Full restoration with many new parts, including:
New reconditioned 1600cc twin port engine which has done less than 1300 km / 800 miles.
New distributor and ignition parts.
New complete clutch.
New exhaust silencer.
New front wheel bearings.
New window rubbers and door seals.
New brake master cylinder and flexi hoses.
New rear brake linings and wheel cylinders including fluid change
New front brake callipers and pads.
New steering drag links
New gear linkage bushes
New drive shaft CV boots.
New front suspension ball joints
Interior professionally retrimmed throughout including new vinyl flooring, front seat covers, rear seat cushions and cushion covers.
New carpets and kick panels.
New professionally fitted vinyl headlining including new curtain rails.
Professionally resprayed in original VW colours Pastel White and Niagara Blue.
Absolutely solid Mediterranean import with exceptionally good straight original bodywork and rot free, unwelded underside. The roof and gutters have no rust or previous welding. During this restoration the vehicle was stripped down and thoroughly examined for corrosion – no welding was required except for a replacement battery tray.(genuine VW).
Left hand drive so perfect for those continental trips.
Fitted out with cupboard unit with new good quality twin gas hob and grill, foldaway table and ¾ width rock n roll bed.
Extensive photographic record of the main work done.
Tax exempt and qualifies for classic car insurance so cheap to run too! MOT to June 2012.
Invoices available for all parts fitted. Included is a brand new, rare and unused service record book as would have been supplied with the new vehicle in 1972 and now ready for the new engine records.
This is a fantastic example and well worth the investment. Must be seen to be appreciated.
Serious offers invited in the region of £12500 - SORRY NOW SOLD!
