Transporters, better known here as the VW Bus, are becoming rarer
as time goes on. This handsome example underwent a complete
restoration with new and original Volkswagen materials was
customized into a 19-window Split-Window or Splittie variant.
Finished in a White Lotus over Light Gray, the exterior is in
overall great condition. Both sections of the split windshield are
finished in chrome and flip-out for extra ventilation. The bodywork
is straight and includes the van's original sunroof and original
banana-model arrows. The engine bay is exceptionally tidy, the
bumperettes with overriders look fantastic. This Splittie rolls on
Goodyear tires, size 6.40-15 at all four corners. Each tire
surrounds factory full moon wheel covers with gray beauty rings.
The tires and wheels are in very good order. In the back is the
original German 1.2L flat, air-cooled four-cylinder engine buttoned
to a four-speed manual transmission. Inside, the original gray and
tan upholstery makes this a true time capsule vehicle. The seats
have been wrapped in clear plastic to preserve the original patina.
On the floor are black mats that are in decent order. A two-spoke
steering wheel faces the driver. The dashboard, with its VDO gauges
is in satisfactory shape while the inner door liners exhibit the
same patina as the seats. The first generation of the Volkswagen
Type 2 with the split windshield, informally called the Microbus,
Splitscreen, or Splittie among modern fans, was produced from March
8,1950 through the end of the 1967 model year. Like the Beetle, the
first Transporters used the 1100 Volkswagen motor, a 1.1L
air-cooled flat-four-cylinder 'boxer' engine mounted in the rear.
This was upgraded to the 1.2L in 1953. Competition to this VW Bus
included Chevrolet's Greenbrier (Corvan) (1961), and G-10 Sportvan
(1965), Dodge's A100 (1964) Ford's Econoline (1961) and GMC's
Handi-Bus (1965). Classic VW fans or fans of vans in general, this
Splittie is not something you should pass by without stopping by
