1978 Volkswagen ASI Riviera Campmobile They are only original once! ***WILL SHIP WORLD WIDE*** This Bus started its life in Tacoma, Washington and was driven by the new owner to its home in Eagle River, Alaska. I am unsure how long it lived in Alaska but it did come to Texas in the 90's. The odometer reads 56XXX but I would assume it has rolled over. The VW has had only one repaint quite a few years ago. While it still looks good it will be ready for another to be brought back to factory new. I have installed a new front tire cover, it also has 4 Kumho tires that are in excellent condition. No real body damage, just a few nicks and dings. Great looking Bus! All Lenses are Factory Hella except the two rear side marker. All glass in good condition and in working order. It does need a windshield, more on that later. 2.0 Liter with dual Weber Carbs. All heating components are present and I have replaced engine to body seal for proper cooling. I also installed a new battery and starter within the last month. The carpet is in great condition and all the original cabinets and appliances are present as are all the foldout tables. The Bus also has all of its original curtains. Sink has two faucets, one needs an electric pump the other is in working condition that hooks to water hook ups. The original stove and fridge are included but I have not tested them. The rear bed still retains the original fabric. There are a couple of spots that need attention but I would prefer worn original over perfect un-original. Dome lights are in working order! The canvas top is in great condition (could use a little cleaning).The fiberglass top is in great condition as well. Lets talk about windshields and rust. I have not replaced the windshield because it would be a good time to repair the rust around the windshield. It has not rusted through anywhere. What I would offer is, I will replace the windshield before it is picked up if the winning bidder is going to wait to have the bus painted. But if you would like to have it replaced after you have the bus painted I will deduct $225.00 off of the winning bid to cover the cost of a new windshield. Your choice. Rust, they all seem to have it somewhere. The worst rust on the bus is on the roof (see pic below). I know it is ugly but you can not see it if the top is down and if you are going to have it painted this is an easy fix. Way better than floor problems. Like I said earlier the floors are in excellent condition! Door panels are in good condition. Seats are in great condition! The dash has no cracks! The floor mat is in great condition. All seats have seat belts including the rear seats. Headliner is in excellent condition! The bed up top is in excellent condition! Ready to go camping! Folders of receipts and hand written notes! Including the original owners manual, dealer pouch, warranty & maintenance manual with owner ID plate. (pic below) Cool stuff! Awesome bus ready to go camping. Runs and drives good and is ready for a new owner. Terms of Sale The following terms of sale apply to all of my online sales. Payment Methods Cash (in person), certified check, bank transfers.
