HERE IS MY 1972 VW BUS IN PRETTY NICE SHAPE FOR ITS AGE AND NOT BEING RESTORED. LETS START WITH THE BODY, WELL ITS IN NOT TOO BAD OF SHAPE, NO RUST HOLES JUST SURFACE. THE PAINT IS FADED, IT HAS THE COOL GUY BUMPERS WHICH ARE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. MY INTENT WITH THE VAN WAS TO COMPLETELY RESTORE IT BUT I HAVE RUN OUT OF MONEY AND WITH THREE LITTLE GIRLS HAVE RUN OUT OF TIME. THE INTERIOR IS COMPLETE WITH AN ALMOST FLAWLESS HEADLINER. THE SEATS ARE ALL INTACT WITH NO RIPS OR HOLES. WHEN I GOT THE VAN IT DIDN'T HAVE THE MIDDLE BENCH SEAT. I FOUND ONE THOUGH ITS A DARKER SHADE THAN THE REST OF THE INTERIOR BUT AN EASY FIX TO RECOVER IT. THE HARD PART IS DONE, I FOUND THE SEAT :) THE WIRING IS COMPLETELY UNMOLESTED AND ALL ELECTRICAL WORKS AS IT SHOULD. IT EVEN STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE. THE HEAT IN THE VAN WORKS REALLY WELL, EVERYTHING IS HOOKED UP AS THE WAY IT SHOULD. THE ORIGINAL ENGINE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY REBUILT AND UPGRADED WITH LARGER PISTONS AND CYLINDERS TO MAKE IT A 2.0 VS A 1.7 IT HAS PLENTY OF POWER AND CURSES DOWN THE FREEWAY BEAUTIFULLY. IT HAS DUAL 40 EMPI CARBURETORS, NEW BOSCH 009 DISTRIBUTOR, BOSCH COIL, ELECTRONIC IGNITION, PLUGS, WIRES, EXHAUST ETC. THE HEATER BOXES WERE WRAPPED IN HEADER TAPE TO HOLD IN MORE HEAT FOR BETTER HEAT IN THE VAN. THE ENGINE HAS A MILD CAMSHAFT IN IT FOR BETTER LOWER TORQUE. THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD WHEN I GOT THE VAN SO I REPLACED IT WITH A TRANSMISSION OUT OF A 79 WHICH IS GEARED A LITTLE HIGHER FOR BETTER FREEWAY TRAVELING. THE FLOORS ARE SOLID WITH NO HOLES. THIS VAN IS A PAINT JOB SHY OF BEING A 10 TO 15K $ VAN. I HAVE OVER $3500 IN THE ENGINE ALONE. I ALSO WANT TO ADD THAT LAST SUMMER I HAD THE FRONT OF THE VAN BLASTED AND PAINTED FOR I THOUGHT THAT I WOULD RESTORE THE VAN ONE PANEL AT A TIME, SO THE NOSE IS ALREADY PAINTED AND LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. I AM MISSING THE VENT COVER FOR THE FRONT. I HAVE BEST DESCRIBED EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT THE VAN. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS, OR COME BY AND TAKE A LOOK. I WILL HOLD THE VAN AS LONG AS NEEDED, AND I WILL ASSIST WITH TRUCKING IF THE VAN IS TO BE SHIPPED. I AM REQUIRING A $500 DEPOSIT AT AUCTION END. I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL FOR THE PURCHASE OF THE VAN. THANKS SO MUCH, MIKE
