Up for bid is a very nice 1976 VW Westfalia camper bus, in advanced state of restauration. This bus has been in the same hands for 22 years and was re-painted 7 years ago. Most window rubber was replaced at that time. It's a very presentable above average paint-job. The project stalled due to not enough time, too many vehicles. (it belongs to a classic car collector in Riverside. CA) It has been stored inside since he bought it in 1991. Title is clear and non-op so no back fees. Licence plate says "4AIR523" which is cool. The bus starts right up even after sitting for a long time and drives well. It does not overheat or pop out of gear. However, when shifting gears the linkage makes a scraping noise as if it touches something. Blinkers are not hooked up yet. Headlights work fine. As can be seen in the photo's this bus needs finishing. Tires are near new. The only rust I found are the small dime-size spots in the floor boards. And of course a new plate has been installed for the battery tray. Rockers, dog-legs and under carriage are rust free. This is a solid California bus that will bring a lot of money when finished. Install a new canvas top and some new door panels, a closet door which is missing, the wrap-arounds for the seats and a floor-mat for the cabin and you're pretty much there. (this is what I will do if the reserve isn't met) International buyers welcome, shipping to CFR in Paramount (A shipping company) is $300. An estimate on shipping to Europe, which I can arrange at no extra cost, is about $1590. A non- refundable deposit of $250 is required within 7 days of the auction ending. Zero or low feedback bidders please contact me prior to bidding or your bids will be canceled. No warranties sale is final. Please inspect the bus in person when in doubt or ask for more photo's which I can provide (of the under carriage which is rust-free) Happy bidding!
