Great crossover model.
Good 2 litre engine, usual benefits of a west coast of USA bus.
This one is your blank canvas ready to go what ever way you want with her.
Recent engine service and already has mot etc.
Also brand new single weber carb conversion just put on.
Just ready to be registered.
Its still wearing its 1st paint from the factory over its original panels and original microbus interior.
Some very small pin holes to passenger floor, and those that know me will know that when i say small i mean small!!
Again another underpriced bus for sale from the House of Value!!
6500.00
Can be viewed in Bristol

I think i did put it up there, its just the time of year, but i guess im like everyone, out of money, but at least i have plenty of nice bay windows to look at :shock:
 
I wouldn't bother lowering it, it looks great as it is.

I would stick it on all the sites and I'm sure you'll get a bite. Try Volksworld, OnlyAircooled.com, theSamba and JustKampers and Volkszone and I'm sure you'll sell it in no time.

good luck
 
found out some history on it.
1972 Sunroof Microbus, Originally bought from " Speedway Volkswagen,Inc. " in Indianapolis,Indiana . Bought on March 26,1973. First 'speedway ' Dealer stamps on 4/6/73 looks like it was only there for a few months there are only 2 dealer stamps in the Owners Manual and then 4th service Stamp was at 'Johnson Pacific' in Oakland,Calif. dated 8/16/73 which is where the rest of the dealer stamps are.
Front License plate frame is Original from this Dealer. Original Owner was a Woman,she is the one who brought it to Oakland a few month's after she bought it.

This Bus is Truly a California Bus..Rock Solid, ORIGINAL PAINT, Complete Interior. last driven in '94. The previous Owner told me he had the motor out and did a Compression check,and that it was good. He had some multiple Problems with the Carbs,and Distributor.
He was NOT a Mechanical guy and left the bus alone.There it sat for all these years. He had bought the bus in Aug.'93 . All door locks work off of the keys.
 
Still for sale for some strange reason, while cleaning it today it i noticed it still has its original VW front windscreen and delivery sticker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Now £5995 without rack and cooler!!
has to be the best out there by far.
Just some of the history.
