1970 VW Type II Bus with Sunroof

1970 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Deluxe

Up for bid is my 1970 VW bay window. As you'll see from the pictures, the bus is in great shape for its age and runs strong. The rear seat was taken out some time ago and a bed frame built in its place but it looks really nice. It does have the middle seat so you can still carry passengers and still have plenty of cargo space in the back. You can drive it as is or put in a little more work and you can end up with one very sweet ride. It only has 1,680 miles on a rebuilt, 1641 cc, dual-port engine which has recently had a tune-up and timing done. The sunroof opens and closes completely but it does need a new seal which comes with the bus. It has styling Empi style allow wheels all around with plenty of tread left on the tires (including a full-size spare). I bought it with the intention of restoring but I can't work on it as much as I'd like due to limited time and weekends are taken up with kid sports.

The bus is originally from California and maintenance has been kept up (I have all service records). The bus is currently in Texas and I picked it up in Mississippi so it has never seen salted roads but as you'll see from the pictures there is some rust on the floor right underneath the sunroof where the seal leaked at some point. Nothing that goes all the way through the pan but it does require a new plate to ensure all three seat stands are firmly bolted down. There is also a small rust bubble on the passenger door as you can see in the picture. Other than that, the body and pan are all solid including all jack points and drain channels. Nothing that can't be fixed on a workhorse that is almost 50 years old!

The bus deserves a good home and someone that can bring it back to its glory days or continue using as-is.

Here is the work that has recently been done:

Points, condenser, and coil were all replaced and timing is done,

Has new CV joints,

Replaced the fuel hose with OEM German hose,

Replaced battery with a new VW battery,

Electrical:

Brake, turn signals, headlights, running lights, dash lights and dome lights all work. The only lights that don't are the backup lights (work intermittently) and the rear passenger light which is included but it will need to be wired up.

Parts that will be included with the bus:

Replacement light bulbs (turn signals, backup)

License plate holders and hardware

1 rear tail light lens and frame

Fuel filters

Accelerator cable

New sunroof seal from West Coast Metric

Original Bilstein Jack

Engine gasket kit

Alternator belt

Please feel free to contact me if you have questions. I also have videoand more pictures of the bus if interested.
