1971 DELUXE MICROBUS- LHD, CALIFORNIAN IMPORT NIAGRA BLUE / WHITE
This was bought by the previous owner in 2009 from Midland Earlybay (imported from California and was previously owned for 15 years by the same person). Where all of the work required to register/MOT was also carried out including wake up work to the brakes, suspension, ball joints etc... Since then I have had it undersealed, a set of carbs fitted and the top end rebuilt and re-tuned.
• It has had a 1800cc conversion carried out at some point in its history.
• MOT June 2014
• Tax exempt
• Front disc brakes.
• Mostly original paintwork with great patina and a few minor dents that really do add to the character of the bus.
• Excellent interior with all seats and interior panels present and in good original condition... Headlining has cleaned up ok but does have a couple of patched up areas.
• No rust to the underside or floorpan (see photos) very solid/straight bus.
It has 7 seatbelts fitted now and seats are in great condition too. The bus runs and drives brilliantly and I have done the following within last month -
New Alternator
New Belts
New Ignition system
Oil Seals
New pads
New Speedo cable
New accelerator pedal and linkage/assembly including cable
Steering refurb
Probably more too but all in all a well loved and brilliant van
Truly reluctant sale and viewing recommended ( in Northumberland). PM for pics please and I can email them
Priced at £9995 ono
