Vehicle Description
In the world of hot collector vehicles, few can match the Type 2
Volkswagens for excitement and value. These have become some of the
most desirable vehicles on the current scene. Here we have a
jaw-dropping 1967 Double Cab Transporter that is simply amazing in
every detail. The colors are Sealing Wax Red with a tastefully
contrasting Classic Deluxe Chestnut Brown - correct VW colors.
Recently restored, every detail from window frames to brightwork to
trim has been addressed. The windshield frames are new stainless
Safari windows. They The odometer indicates a mere 250 miles since
the restoration. That's just enough to ensure all is well. Fit and
finish is outstanding. The doors operate as new, and all those bed
doors open and close freely. The side panels of the bed are like
the tailgate. They open to create a flatbed truck for extra bulky
cargo. Mechanically, this vehicle is like new with a freshly
rebuilt 1600cc engine. An MSD ignition box testifies to the
thoroughness of the build, as this is an upgrade for quick starts
and dependable service. It also helps provide the power to work
better with the transmission set up. The transmission is also
fresh. It's a T3 Freeway Flyer for quieter highway driving and
higher top speed. Of course, the first thing that catches your eye
is that fabulous paint combination. To compliment those great
colors, there's new Grumpy's Metal deluxe trim all around including
the rocker moldings, and a Sealing Wax Red trim insert for the
finishing detail. Stainless steel polished bumpers are another
practical upgrade, yet they are the correct style for a 1967 VW.
Open the doors and you will be treated to the same high standards.
Dark brown upholstery with dark chocolate brown piping complements
the exterior so well, it goes beyond vintage and into designer
territory. The original seat frames were sandblasted and black
powder coated. Brown and beige colors continue into the door panels
and kick panels with new chrome moldings. All the glass is original
but the rubber and weatherseal is new. Also new are such items as
the steering wheel, dashboard knobs, chrome ashtray, horn button,
and wiper arms (with a safari pivot for opening the safari
windows). No detail was left unattended. But the big stuff is
handled too. All the electrical systems are in working order. There
are new headlights, driving lights, stop lights, emergency lights,
interior dome lights, a new battery, new ignition switch, and new
starter. Your drive is the best it can be with a completely
refurbished suspension including new flip spindles, steering
damper, tie rods, king pins and link pins, and four new shocks.
Yes, Volkswagens have always had many followers, and they are
hotter than ever. If you're an aficionado, you'll appreciate the
time, the care, and the workmanship in this spectacular
restoration. But even if you're not yet a fan, take a close look.
You might just catch the bug!
