FULLY RESTORED 1957 VOLKSWAGEN BUS. COLORS ARE PERIOD CORRECT PALM GREEN OVER SAND GREEN. THE BUS IS IN PERFECT RUNNING CONDITION WITH A 12 VOLT CONVERSION, STRONG ORGINAL ENGINE AND REBUILT TRANSMISSION. THE INTERIOR HAS BEAUTIFUL OFF WHITE BENCH SEATS WITH MATCHING GREEN TRIM. THE CONVERTIBLE SNAP TOP ROOF CAN BE REMOVED TO ENJOY THE CALIFORNIA BREEZE. EVERY DETAIL OF THIS BUS HAS BEEN ADDRESSED AND THE RESTORATION WAS COMPLETED IN 2010. ALL THE WORK WAS DONE LOCALLY HERE IN COSTA MESA. THE MECHANICAL WAS DONE BY NORM AT MESA WEST, THE INTERIOR WAS DONE AT UNIVERSAL AUTO & MARINE UPHOLSTERY AND THE PAINT WAS DONE AT J.J'S PAINT & AUTO BODY.
I PURCHASED THE BUS IN NOVEMBER 2006 AND COMPLETED THE RESTORATION IN MID 2010. SINCE THEN IT HAS MADE THE 2 MILE JOURNEY TO BALBOA ISLAND A COUPLE OF TIMES A WEEK HAULING MY PADDLEBOARD (I HAVE ONLY PUT ON 3,000 MILES SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED 12 YEARS AGO). I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS AND MANY EXTRAS. THE LICENSE PLATES ARE PERIOD CORRECT, I HAVE THE "BIRTH CERTIFICATE" FROM THE VOLKSWAGEN ARCHIVES, EXTRA PARTS AND A TRANSPORTER WORKSHOP MANUAL.
