This 1977Volkswagen Microbus began its restoration with us as a great running daily driver, accident free with minimal dings, complete, licensed and registered and a very "sad to see go" seller. This bus is quite a find. RESTORATIONCompletely disassembled inside and out, down to a shell and power washed. All parts were inventoried and inspected for functionality and appearance. 90% of the original German parts were refurbished and reused as opposed to replacing them with a lesser quality aftermarket part usually made in China. BODYWORK & PAINT Entire bus was sanded. Any dings or scratches were repaired. Coats of “Fill-Primer” were applied to even out the body, sanded and prepared for paint. This two-toned bus was painted with quality DuPont automotive base coat/clear coat products. The roof, interior and bumpers are painted in light beige. Body is tan. Then entire bus was painted with several wet coats of clear. EXTERIORAfter paint has cured, the body was wet-sanded with 1500 grit sandpaper and machine polished for ultimate shine. All parts new and refurbished are carefully installed. All rubber seals and gaskets were replaced with new. Some but not all new exterior parts include; side mirrors, "smoked" taillight lenses and housings, clear turn signal lens, large and rare small roof racks, and more. Wheels are brand new stunning late model Audi 17” rims with brand new low profile tires. All glass windows were professionally installed with new seals. Front door windows, wings, trim, flaps and seals are new. All new body/door seals are also installed. INTERIOR & UPHOLSTERYFloor is also coated with undercoating, new plywood installed then covered with high traction area black carpet.

Front seats are comfortable bucket seats with headrest. UNDERCARRAIGE & MECHANICAL Entire underbody was power washed and completely sealed with automotive rust preventative undercoating. All mechanical and electrical components removed in disassembly are carefully inspected, tested and either repaired or replaced.
