Vehicle Description
This 1966 Volkswagen Bus Type 2 Kombi is the enduring icon sunroof
VW bus that you've always dreamed of having. It's that perfect surf
wagon and road trip machine rolled into one irresistible
package.
The two-tone minty green and white is the kind paint you'd expect
from the factory in the '60s, but it has the telltale luster that
lets you know there has been a solid modern investment. It's a
truly coordinating two-tone with the bumpers and steel wheels
painted white. Plus, the green VW emblem in the middle of the
iconic the dipping "V" front makes a striking first impression. Not
only is the body impressive, but also this really gets the details
right. You see it in places like the headlight surrounds, large
side mirrors, and the classic hallmark VW hubcaps that were shared
with the Type 1 (AKA, the Beetle.) And the real wood roof rack just
makes you want to go for a cross-country trip on the byways.
Just like the exterior, the interior remains quite faithful to the
original style while making sure everything is in good order. The
fabric and vinyl two-tone on the seats are repeated throughout the
interior on the side panels and the stylish bulkhead behind the
front seats. So this is not only a great place to spend some time,
but also you'll love pulling up to car shows and opening up all the
doors so everyone gets a peek. Speaking of open to the world, the
large fabric sunroof is an iconic feature that people love to see.
It really makes this interior bright and cheery. With all this
glass and the open roof, you'll really enjoy this on the road, too.
These were great for giving the driver a commanding view. The large
factory two-spoke steering wheel w/Wolfsburg crest, single VDO
gauge, and easy to reach gearshift should feel a bit familiar to
Beetle fans. Plus, with the pop-out dual windshields, nothing beats
the old-school breezes this VW bus creates. And just to make sure
the road trip is perfect, there's a modern AM/FM/CD stereo that
keeps you in command of the best tunes.
You're looking at an air cooled, horizontally opposed 1776cc motor.
That's a larger displacement than what was available in '66, but
it's hard to visually tell the difference on a VW. Of course, the
extra-tidy setup with dual carbs might be the real giveaway to the
extra investment in the engine bay. So that means extra power while
still retaining the spirit and reliability of the Beetle motor. It
fires up easily and runs nicely. Plus, it's linked to the sturdy
and versatile four-speed manual transmission, which allows you to
get the most out of the motor. It's an unbeatable package that
provides that hypnotic air-cooled soundtrack we all love.
Oh the places you will go... but only if you're the first to grab
this deal. Call now!
