Vehicle Detail

For sale is a 1973 Volkswagen pop-top camper bus. It has a rebuilt 2 litre engine with less than four thousand miles on it. The transmission was also rebuilt when the engine was and a new clutch was installed at that time. I bought it last spring and used it all summer as a daily driver. It runs like a dream. I have made a lot of modifications to it, restoring the interior. It needs a few more small things and it will be perfect. The table has been re-surfaced and the interior wall panels have been painted white with the exception of the sliding door. There is laminate flooring installed in the back and it looks really nice. I also put new curtains in all the way around. I installed a new refrigerator in the back which has a mirrored black tinted transparent front. It has a blue LED internal light which looks pretty cool. There is also a brand new top of the line 300 dollar yellow top battery installed in the back. All it really needs is to have a power inverter installed and hooked up to a switch to either run off of shore power or the battery bank. The main battery is also new, and there is a battery switch hooked up so that the starting battery will be charged until full charge is reached, then it will switch over and charge the starting battery. I made a new roof assembly for the rear which just needs to be painted and installed. The roof assembly can also hold two 6x9 speakers, and there is also a place to hook up two more 6x9s in the front doors. I also made the door panel for the sliding door, it just hasn't been painted or installed yet. I just ran out of summer before I ran out of work to do on it. I put all new tires on it, but due to a personal issue with an ex-girlfriend, the tires on the passenger side have been slashed. The spare is brand new, never used, and the tires on the driver's side have only a couple hundred miles on them. It needs a new brake line on the driver's side front. It is an extremely cheap part, but it is not drivable right now due to the passenger tires and the brake line.. There was also a scraping sound in the drivers front tire when I parked it, and removed the caliper. It started after I drove on a gravel road, so it may have just been a rock stuck in the brakes, but it also may need new bearings. I started it a couple weeks ago, and it started right up in sub zero weather. The top is in decent condition with no major tears. The cots will need new canvas however. Age made them kind of brittle. It has the pop top with a cot for a child (or a really short person), another cot that goes across the front seats, and the fold out bed in the back. There is plenty of storage room. It has a new steering wheel and an old style oooga car horn with an 8 ball shifter. As you can see, Scooby is always riding with me. If you want him too, maybe we can work something out. :) It definitely gets some attention. Also it has a complete set of brand new chrome hub caps. I took it on some road trips this summer and it did great. I have a lot more pictures if you would like to see some more. Just send me an e-mail at dadgeman@yahoo.com. Also, I forgot to mention that I started installing LED light bars as opposed to dome lights for the interior of the camper and the dome light. Less power draw, and a cool blue tint. Just needs to be finished wiring to the switch. Wires are already run.
