Vehicle Detail
1965 VW Kombi. - 1835 with dual dellorto carbs built by Jeff Wilson at Mears Metal Products (http://www.mearsracing.com/) with less than 1500 miles since he built the motor. - Alternator - 12 volt - Dual Dellorto carbs - Tight shifting makes driving easy This is my fathers and he has had this since the 80s. this bus is stored the last 40 years and sees less than 100 miles a year. It has been repainted on the outside. It photo graphs beeter than it looks in person. I do not want to say Nicest VW in city etc. because condition is relative to someones expectations. It can be seen in person in Minneapolis, MN so please understand we are making our best attempt to accurately describe this bus. The Good: - One of the best motor builders in the world is a family friend and built this engine as a favor - Extra oil cooling mounted below with steel braided lines - Solid floors - This bus will go at highway speeds no problem, trany and shifting very tight. The power is balanced you can cruise mellow or step on it to merge on the highway - This bus even accelerates up hill and is a great driver. The Bad: - Bus will need typical saftey maint after sitting this long - Front driver door and passanger door eye windows still need rubber seals, and wing locks are broken - Drivers door and side doors need adjusting, just typical time to button up after paint - The rear is custom 70's fabulous, the front is stock pannels - It was a exterior repaint in the 80's - 1965 this is not a restored bus and will show flaws that are normal for a 50 yearold vehicle This bus can be inspected by serious buyers, it is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime for any reason. Please understand I am not looking for advice or knowledge and would appreciate only serious inquires and not someone who is looking for a friend. The bus can be shipped overseas it has a clear title in prior owners name. It can stay for a few weeks as shipping is figured out as long as it is paid in full. Once this goes back to storage - that is where it will stay and I will wheel it out in 20 years and try again.
