The original focus of the VW Microbus was on function, but today it
is a timeless piece of moving art. Volkswagen began production of
the second generation Type 2 Bus in late 1967 and it continued
through 1979. It was the forerunner to the many cargo and passenger
vans that covered our landscape in the 80's and 90's. Our 1974
Kombi Microbus has undergone a complete restoration and is a
splendid example of this iconic vehicle. Its exterior was
professionally refinished in two-stage Brilliant Orange and Pastel
White. The interior was restored to better-than-original with new
orange/white vinyl seat upholstery and door cards. New carpeting
was installed and the headliner is in very good condition. Power is
provided by the 1.8L Type 4 air-cooled VW 4-cylinder that the owner
states has never required a rebuild. Factory rated at 67bhp, the
engine is currently fitted with an aftermarket 2V intake/carburetor
and new custom exhaust system. This boxer motor is backed by a
4-speed manual transaxle and it runs beautifully. The solid chassis
sports new rear half shafts/CV joints, 4-wheel drum brakes and
steel wheels with nice radial tires. If you revel in the unique,
this 1974 Volkswagen Microbus is your ticket. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS
IS".
