Vehicle Description
This 1994 Volkswagen Type 2 13-Window Deluxe Bus has quite a long
name because it designates a car that's quite special. It's a
recently restored Brazilian import that celebrates a part of VW
history we rarely get to see.
South America kept many VW traditions alive longer than even
Germany did. This is the kind of vehicle that gets to blend some of
your favorite elements of the Type 2 Bus. The flat front end is the
later Breadvan look, and the great body lines keep the crisp and
clean look going from every angle. Of course, the full window
treatment, including the wraparound rear ones, has the look of
those first-gen surf wagons. And this even has a step ladder and
roof rack so you can have an epic road trip to the beach. When you
reach your destination, the big and iconic ragtop sunroof folds
back so you can let all the surf and sun into the van. Even the
little details are nice. After all, we love these with two-tone
paint, and the mustard yellow and white look period-correct. But it
has a modern smoothness to look good, and there's even some bright
trim to help separate the colors. It's a full two-tone style, right
down to the wheels.
The interior is restored to look vintage but feel fresh. It starts
with the driver's seat. You get a classic VDO gauge package, a tall
shifter for the four-speed, and a grippy dual-spoke steering wheel.
But the part that you'll like the best is the way the burgundy
seats have distinct white piping. This kicks off a full package
that's coordinated on the side panels, kick plates, and upholstery
for all three rows of seating. This is full of terrific classic
details, like the fabric window curtains that draw added attention
to all those windows. It also has practical features like seatbelts
for all rows and a rear defogger. And the rear seats fold flat in
case you feel like having an overnight trip.
Under the rear hatch is the ultra-tidy 1600cc motor - it's one of
the largest of the series and a dual-carb unit. This looks like it
was given plenty of attention during the restoration... and it runs
just as good as it looks. Details like the power brakes, front
discs, and modern cruising tires are all part of this road-ready
package.
A South American VW Bus like this means distinction, freshness, and
nice updates. It makes for a cool classic that's more fun to show
off everywhere. Call today!!!
