Inside, the front has the classic VW charm with bucket seats, the forward-control steering wheel, and classic VDO gauges. While the exterior has the vintage attitude, you can make sure to have modern tunes thanks to an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input and a powerful speaker box. We all love these vans because they are quite configurable. Right now, you have two rows of rear seating. So you can choose to bring along family and friends, or build out into a true road tripping machine.

The engine is Volkswagen's famous flat-four unit. This air-cooled motor is known for its hardy nature, and this one fires up with ease. You take full control over it with the four-speed manual transmission. Plus, owning a later second-generation Type 2 has its benefits out on the road, including an improved suspension and the stopping power of front disc brakes. There will even be new tires at the time of the sale.

The magic bus is ready right now, are you? Call soon!
