Vehicle Detail
This 77 Bus is one of the most fun I've ever owned. It's pretty original except for the color. I call her "Sunny" and she gets looks everywhere we go. She runs strong, doesn't leak a drop of anything, doesn't smoke, even on start up, she stops better than average and lights etc. all work. She has almost brand new heater boxes and a pretty decent stereo/CD player. She's a walk through too. The tires are almost new, floorboards are solid and she's cute as a button. She even has little smiley face tire valve covers! The vinyl decals can be removed if you like. This is not a show car, at least not if you want to win against the 50K buses. It's nice, it's clean, it runs well and it's fun. It has the tiniest bit of surface rust in a couple of places, the first mile or so each day the back brakes grind a bit and then they quit, but since I don't have a VW mechanic close and I'm not mechanical you'll probably need rear brakes soon. The gears all stay put but as with most buses are just a bit finicky sometimes. The bus seems pretty tight, steering wise. The black upholstery is original but has a few normal wear and tear places. I have a custom made, $100 set of orange and yellow curtains made by Snorkel Granny that I'll include with everything you need to mount them. The blue and yellow California plates and Vee Dub plate holder go with the bus. I also have a spare tire cover that I bought off Samba that's included as well. I'll help you arrange shipping to wherever you want. I've been ripped off a couple of times with VW stuff so understand that what you see is what you get. I'll be honest with you about the bus. If you have limited or negative feedback contact me before you bid. I don't have time to deal with people who don't have the money, need to talk with mom, or wait for answer from the bank about a loan. I'm in a bind financially and need the cash ASAP or I wouldn't even consider selling the bus. Thanks for looking.
