This is a highly sought after Right hand drive bus, which has been lovingly restored to a very high standard using only best quality German parts. Many one year only parts are intact and in excellent condition. The engine runs smoothly and pulls strongly and has no end float. The steering is accurate and precise with minimal play and the brakes stop it on a sixpence. Every thing on the dashboard works thanks to hours of replacing 40+year old wiring with nice new cables. The original fuse box has been retained with the addition of a new unit to carry the higher amps stuff. The headlights have been upgraded to halogen units so that you can actually see and be seen at night and the brake lights have quick response high intensity bulbs.
open to serious offers
The bus has been valued by local VW main dealer at £18000 including HPI and VMC certificates.
The only filler in this bus is a very light skim over welding which has all been carried out by a qualified welder/fabricator.
All tinware is present vw heritage towbar being refitted this weekend
