Vehicle Detail

1968 VW Adventure Camper NO RESERVE 1st year of the Bay windows. Adventures are getting rarer and harder to find these days, especially the early ones with the upright type 2 motors. 68 to 71. This camper is gutted, but a good start if your looking for an Adventure. Motor was junk and sitting in the cargo area. I've got it and it goes with the bus, with the normal auction. I also have a complete1600 dual port turn key that I just built for another project. It's been bench tested, and the rings just broken in. 140 plus compression all 4 cylinders, AS41 dual relief case, Alternator, Doghouse cooler. Ready to go that will also go with the bus ONLY with the "Buy it now". If the regular auction plays out, then the core motor goes with it, and whatever parts we can find. Cab floor, and walk thru really dry, cargo floor has a spot on it (see pic). I got the brakes up, and they seem to be fine. FG top is in decent condition but needs to be compounded out some where down the line. Right rear corner will need work, but nothing that can't be done while you drive the bus, and is rough but presentable. It's got plywood closing off the 2 rear flat large windows. I have the glass for them and seals are cheap. It's a good bus to start with and collect an interior, finish up body work etc. for it while you drive it and restore it. It does and will need work but the price reflects that. Front end looks great, tires are decent shape, even the spare. Steering is tight. I've blown out my tendon in my right arm and can no longer work on this bus for the next several months so that is why it's going. NO, I can't install the motor, which means it's not a driver. There is a great VW shop less than 30 miles from my house that just specializes in VW's (mostly air cooled) who can not only install the engine for you, and the glass, bleed the brakes etc. if you want to drive it home. I will get it there for you, but, YOU will negotiate price and pay on pickup. I've also got misc. small camper bits lying around that I will just throw in with the bus. Anyway, regular auction price, you get the core motor. Buy it now, get's the rebuilt 1600 dual port. Check engine prices, it's a good package, motor is turnkey and worth more than half of what I'm asking in the "buy it now" Clear title in my name. AS IS, WHERE IS. Once again, I will get it to B&C VW if you want them to finish the installation, otherwise buyer is responsible for pickup. Also, that little rocket of a bug in the background is going up too. Apparently, surgery is expensive these days.On Sep-22-14 at 06:19:41 PDT, seller added the following information: Lots of questions on the "Buy it Now" I guess it went away with the first Bid. Good thing ebay charged me for it.......... It was, 3500.00. still is available. The rebuilt turnkey motor is worth more than half that. Check prices. Also, several questions on driving it home, once again, I will deliver everything to B&C VW. They will give you a quote on finishing it. Which is basically installing the motor, exhaust etc. and dialing a few things in. I cannot put it all together as I'm having surgery, otherwise I would be finishing this project and the price would be much higher. Yep, come on out and take a look, it's in my shop now.
