Thank you for viewing this 1967 VW Bus. This bus has spents it's life in central California. It is in great shape although it is not going to win you any pebble beach first place trophys. It was restored to drive around town or to the beach. Perhaps drive it to work everyday like i did .Whatever you want to do with it.The engine runs very good, it starts right up, and you can drive it pretty much anywhere as long as you take your time getting there as it is . The Odometer reads 80,000 and it has a Clean and Clear, California title. Overall this is bus very solid, does have some rust surface rust here and there and a few paint flaws but all the rusted out sections were replaced and re-welded in. There is one exception the inner nose panel which does nothing and no one sees still needs to be bought or made and welded in to be a perfect resto. just a reminder what you see is what you get. The stereo, roof rack, fog lights, slow moving magnetic sign on the back, ECT are all included in the sale of the bus. Note: all windows open by sliding, pop-out or safari style. All seals for the windows, doors and engine tin are all new. They cost me a small fortune and were a pain putting in let me tell you. I saved you the hassles. The sides are all pop-out style, the doors are sliders and front and back are safari's. Feel the breeze when you cruz down the road! Mechanical: This bus runs great. The engine runs good, no noise or issues. It just adjusted the valves and timming. The carb is a new 30 pict and the choke works good. It has a new fuel pump, fuel lines and filter. It has a new eletronic distrubitor with new cap and rotor and new spark plugs. Overall the engine is in good shape. Compression in the engine is good with a year on a full engine rebuild. rebuilt heads as well then. The transmission, shifts nice, all 4 gears, are smooth as well reverse. The clutch was replaced last year with a heavy duty one and heavy duty fork and throw-out bearing. It has new red axle boots as well. The transmission feels good, no slop, and stays in the gears, no popping out. The brakes were redone a while back, new rubber lines, and the brakes stop very good, no leaks from the cylinders. Overall, mechanically it is in great shape, drive it anywhere. With that said, be prepared, its a VW they always need adjustments, but they run forever. The tires are newer as well, all match, and have about 80 % tread on them, and are worn evenly. There are two extra rims with new tires and hubcaps. the front end has new ball joints and steering dampner, new shocks all around and recently greased up beam. Heater and defroster for the windshield work great by the way. Electricial: The Headlights, taillights, fog lights, wipers and turn signals all work. All the interior lights work as do all the gauges. The gas gauge works but is not perfect. It shows half of what's there in the tank. Might need new sending unit.The Alternator and oil pressure lights both work on the dash and so does the horn. The horn is a german air raid siren and can be switched but is fun.The dimmer switch is broke at the stem but switches high and low. There is a newer JVC cd player and with USB and audio inputs for whatever you want to play through the stereo. Also has a 100 watt amp hidden under the rear seat with a 15" rockford fosgate sub with a Q logic box. Has two 6x9's in the rear and infinity 6" woofers and tweeters in the front doors. sounds sweet with no rattles! The body on it is in good shape in general. It has a few dings and paint imperfections, but nothing major. The nose is in good shape with the lower outter portion replaced when restored. Drivers door is perfect but the passenger door has some small rust holes on the bottom. Doors close good except passenger door needs a little more umph to close than drivers door. Cargo doors are good and recently repaired as along with the front and rear floors, lower valances on the sides, battery tray, drip rail sections, wheel wells, hatch door, ect. Olny the inner nose valance is left to replace and it was out of stock when i was rebuilding this bus so that's why it's left. Easy fix and does nothing structually. Interior is restored and used for a few years since replaced but overall usable and decent. The headliner and door panels are wood panels i made. Overall you can see the general interior condition from the pictures. This bus has front and rear safari wondows installed. All the squre windows on the sides open. Glass is decent and no cracks and all OEM German serkuit. All doors lock and have all oem keys to the doors.

No, there are no accidents or major sheetmetal replaced olny a few patched sections otherwise all original sheet metal. 3. Yes, it is the original motor and transmission that has been rebuilt with the original reduction boxes still in place and working. I have replaced all the seals in the engine and transmission including all motor mounts and nose cone bushing. { Climbs the hills good because of the reduction boxes by the way} 4. yes, it is driveable. i have been driving it daily for the past four years. during that time I have worked and replaced every pary on it. For instance clutch cable, speedometer cable, throttle cable, gas pedal and all moving parts related to the operation of it, all fuel and brake lines, all brakes, Master cylinder, shifter linkages, transmission oil and redux box oil replaced, all motor mounts and seals for the engine and transmission were replaced. It is as reliable as any 50 year old car. take care of it and it will take care of you. More reliable than most buses on E-bay because this one has gone through the trials of everyday driving. 5. I have included some more pictures of areas that bidders want to see close-ups on and they are in the main ad. Someone will win this beauty and be very happy with there purchase. It has met the reserve.......
