1969 Volkswagen Type 2 Bus

Description

This 1969 Volkswagen Type 2 has that iconic look we love, and there are even some vintage details that make it even more fun. Plus, the value price means it's easy to take home today and personalize it even more as you create your dream Bus.

There's a distinct look to this one. The Dark Red Metallic paint has a shadowy kind of tone, and so the full blackout trim package works really well here to complement the color. The VW logo, headlight bezels, bumpers, full-length trim, and full roof are all part of this comprehensive dark side. Even the wheels go with the color theme with dark red units that have glossy black hubcaps. The fit and finish are far from perfect, but if you've priced these VW Busses lately, you know this one represents a nice entry-level. So some of us will see it as a great way to get a classic that's easy to enjoy on a whim, and others will see it as a base that lets you budget for everything you want. And no matter your plans, this already comes with desirable features like the front bumper with an integrated step and a classic-style luggage rack with wood slats.

The two-tone color theme is continued inside. There have been some nice investments in the seats, door panels, and headliner to make this one fundamentally inviting. In fact, the comprehensive color theme looks particularly nice on the convenient three rows of seating that have clean red vinyl and handy black seatbelts. So while it's a bit of a blank slate waiting for your finishing touch, the basics already feel so that the full package still feels right with plenty of potential.

The 1600cc air-cooled flat-four motor has a longstanding reputation for durability. This has a clean look and updated components that signal it's a strong runner ready for those who like to experience their classic. You get proper control over the engine with the smooth-shifting four-speed. The feeling out on the road has that classic VW feel, and since the parts availability is huge, you can often sharpen up the feeling with just a little bit of weekend work.

This Bus is about being attractive for its price today and letting you dream about all the different styles tomorrow can bring. After all, the heart of the Type 2's appeal has always been about how it's a personal expression. So it's time to make this one yours. Call today!!!
