I bought this a few weeks back, im humming and haring wether to mot/tax it to get more money or sell it as it is.
I bought it off a family whos grandad passed away, hence the sale. Been garaged a few years.
Ive got my Splitty to crack on with. Not really got the time to do both. But id love too.
The pop top needs work, its the red thing behind the bus. Needs canvas and bows. Will bolt on and strap down ok. The previous owner only took it off to fit it in his garage. it will need the glass (supplied) fitting and skylights too
Original worn front seats
dormobile interior
good floors and front step areas
Empi shifter
Lowered
Ive not had it running yet, the starter turns over very slow with a charged battery. Thats where my efforts for the day stopped.
Looks like the accelerator linkage is missing some bits (£20 from heritage).
Its had a respray in the past that isnt the best, and isnt the worst.
Ive just fitted a new ignition barrel, new chrome cab door handles, rear chrome latch. so 2 sets of keys come with the bus.
It needed a rear bumper, bumper hangers and rear valance. Ive now bought these.
New front clear indicators and rear lenses were bought 2 weeks ago too.
Was last on the road in 2011, so not mot or tax. Will need to be trailed away obversely
More pics soon with a full description, on the ipad at the mo!

I'd be up for a deal on an early bug, squareback, or mk1 caddy with cash my way
