Vehicle Description
One look at this custom 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon will unleash the
adventurer in you. And even if you're just on a milk run, it has
the style and stance to look like you just came in from an epic
journey.
The Vanagon is part of a special heritage. The versatile
forward-control style and squared-off look make this instantly
reminiscent of the classic VW Type 2 bus/pickup. They may have come
after the Summer of Love, but their impression was no longer tied
to hippies. Instead, it was a new generation of travelers. Everyone
from surfers to campers loved to utilize the adaptable space, and
there was even a pickup version sold to other parts of the world.
So this custom build delivers an excellent truck for the American
adventurer. The custom long bed is great for holding your surfboard
and other gear. Or maybe you utilize the custom soft top cover to
make an open-air bed for the ideal summer night out in nature.
Plus, the tall stance from all-terrain tires, a custom roof rack,
liner paint, and a full-size spare on a swing-away mount are all
great features for any epic journey you're going to take. Even the
paint theme feels right. The two-tone brown and tan have a
distantly 1980s European feel, and it looks good on the street or
trail without making you worry about what may happen if you leave
the beaten path.
The interior is also part of this thoughtful custom build. The
front half is pure classic Vanagon. A comfy bucket seat, dual-spoke
steering wheel, and classic VDO gauges give the driver a commanding
view of the open road in this forward-control pickup. There's even
an easy-to-reach, upgraded AM/FM stereo with USB and Bluetooth.
There are also provisions for air conditioning (it will need
servicing/components to blow cold.) This makes it feel like an easy
journeyman, but there's also something more. This has a custom
extended cab. It includes handy features like a separate
passenger-side door and a pop-out rear hatch to the bed. So it's
great for extra people or a secure place for your gear.
Besides being larger than the old VW Bus, the Vanagon is also
desirable for its drivetrain package. The motor is a 1.9-liter
fuel-injected flat-four. The motor is mounted low in the body for a
low center of gravity, and the weight over the rear driving wheels
delivers the same power/traction advantages of the Beetle. It's not
the kind of powerhouse that wins drag races, but you can feel the
smart engineering in its setup. There's also a fully independent
suspension and the control of a four-speed manual transmission. Add
in power steering and front discs for a useful total driving
package.
This custom truck has a style that looks like every day is an
adventure. So, you're looking at an irresistible deal at a price
like this. Call now!
