1972 VOLKSWAGEN BUS THIS BUS WAS RESTORED APPROX 12 YEARS AGO, AT THE TIME OF THE BRAND NEW RESTORATION, THE NEW OWNER FORGOT TO PUT THE OIL CAP ON AND BLEW UP THE ENGINE. SOON AFTER THAT HAPPENED THEY HAD BRAND NEW 2000 CC ENGINE INSTALLED, BUT THE BUS WAS PARKED IN A BARN FOR THE NEXT TEN YEARS NOT BEING USED. WE PURCHASED IT APPROX 2 YEARS AGO, AND HAVE PUT LESS THAN 1,500 MILES ON IT. ITS VERY CLEAN, GREAT CONDITION, VERY HAPPY WITH EVERYTHING ABOUT IT! THE BUS HAS HAD A COMPLETE RESTORATION INCLUDING BODY AND ENGINE. THE BODY IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE, ITS RUST FREE, IT HAS A FEW VERY MONOR ROCK DINGS FROM DRIVING. NO DENTS. THERE IS A VERY SMALL " LINE" OR DENT CREASE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE DRIVERS DOOR, (PLEASE SEE VERY LAST PHOTO) THE BODY IS STRAIGHT. THE ORIGINAL COLOR APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN AN ORANGE, BUT HAS BEEN REPAINTED A CREAM COLOR. PAINT JOB LOOKS PRETTY GOOD. THE DOORS ALL SHUT AND FUNCTION CORRECTLY, THE DOOR SEALS ARE ALL INTACT. ALL OF THE GLASS IS ALL INTACT, NO BROKEN WINDOWS, ALL WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN AND CLOSE AS THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO. A TINTING FILM HAS BEEN APPLIED TO THE WINDOWS AND IN GOOD CONDITION. ALL OF THE SEATS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION, THE MIDDLE SEAT IS REMOVABLE. THE FAR BACK SEAT HAS A SEPERATION APPROX 8 INCHES LONG ON THE SEAM OF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SEAT. ALL ARM RESTS AND GRAB HANDLES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION, NO TEARS OR RIPS. THE PADDING ON THE DASH IS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME TEARING AROUND THE RADIO CUT OUT AND A SMALL ONE WHERE THE HANDLE IS TO THE LEFT( BAR JUST ABOVE RADIO) ( SEE PHOTOS) THE FLOOR MATS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. CARPETING ON THE BACK PLATFORM IS IN GREAT CONDITION. HEADLINER IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, NO RIPS NO TEARS, NOT SURE IF IT WAS NEW TO THE RESTORATION? BUT LOOKS LIKE IT, OR VERY GOOD CONDITION IF ITS THE ORIGINAL. ONE PHOTO SHOWS SOME " BROWNING" WHERE THE HEADLINER AND SEAL ARE,NEAR THE DOOR ( SEAL APPEARS TO HAVE BECOME UNATTACHED IN ABOUT A 6 INCH AREA. I BELEIVE ITS GLUE- IN ONE SPOT, PROBABLY COULD BE CLEANED UP. THE GLOVE BOX ON THE INTERIOR COULD USE A NEW LINER ( ITS FULLY FUNCTIONAL BUT THE TOP PORTION OF THE INTERIOR OF THE BOX SEEMS TO BE COMING APART- THE CARDBOARD IS WARPED) A STOCK 2000CC ENGINE WAS INSTALLED LESS THAN 12,000 MILES AGO. ENGINE RUNS GREAT. TRANSMISSION SHIFTS FINE, AND FUNCTIIONS THE WAY IT SHOULD. CLUTCH IS LESS THAN 12,000 MILES OLD. FRONT BRAKES WERE REPLACED IN THE LAST 1,500 MILES. TIRES ARE NEW WITH LESS THAN 1,500 MILES. ALL LIGHTS WORK AND FUNCTION FINE. TURN SIGNALS WORK FINE. ALL GAUGES AND INSTRUMENTS WORK FINE. WINDSHILED WIPERS WORK, HOWEVER THEY MAY NEED NEW LINKAGES DUE TO SITTING. ( THEY FUNCTION KIND OF SLOW) THERE IS AN AFTER MARKET RADIO- CD PLAYER THAT WORKS GREAT. THE MUFFLER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT HAS RUSTED OFF AT THE INTAKE FLANGE, THE REST OF THE EXHAUST IS IN GOOD SHAPE ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO, WE HAVE MUFFLER WIRED UP) THE CHROME " VOLKSWAGEN" EMBLEM IS MISSING OFF OF THE BACK, IF YOU LOOK AT THE PHOTOS YOU CAN SEE WHERE IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE ( ABOUT 2 FEET ABOVE WHERE THE MUFFLER IS) THE TINT ON THE WINDOWS IS A BLUE/PURPLE THIS BUS GOES DOWN THE ROAD STRAIGHT, STEERS TIGHT, STOPS FINE & IS FUN TO DRIVE. IT HAS LOTS OF POWER, A SMOOTH RUNNING ENGINE. WE HAVE OWNED IT FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS. ITS EXCELLENT FOR CAMPING, OR A DAILY DRIVER. LOTS OF ROOM!!! THE MIDLE SEAT IS REMOVEABLE, AND ALLOWS FOR A LOT OF ROOM, QUICK AND EASY TO RE-INSTALL. THIS IS LOCATED JUST OFF OF I-90 30 MILES WEST OF SPOKANE WASHINGTON. YOU WILL NEED TO PICK UP.
