This 1969 Volkswagen Type 2 has that iconic look we love, and there
are even some vintage details that make it even more fun. Plus, the
value price means it's easy to take home today and personalize it
even more as you create your dream Bus.
There's a distinct look to this one. The Dark Red Metallic paint
has a shadowy kind of tone, and so the full blackout trim package
works really well here to complement the color. The VW logo,
headlight bezels, bumpers, full-length trim, and full roof are all
part of this comprehensive dark side. Even the wheels go with the
color theme with dark red units that have glossy black hubcaps. The
fit and finish are far from perfect, but if you've priced these VW
Busses lately, you know this one represents a nice entry-level. So
some of us will see it as a great way to get a classic that's easy
to enjoy on a whim, and others will see it as a base that lets you
budget for everything you want. And no matter your plans, this
already comes with desirable features like the front bumper with an
integrated step and a classic-style luggage rack with wood
slats.
The two-tone color theme is continued inside. There have been some
nice investments in the seats, door panels, and headliner to make
this one fundamentally inviting. In fact, the comprehensive color
theme looks particularly nice on the convenient three rows of
seating that have clean red vinyl and handy black seatbelts. So
while it's a bit of a blank slate waiting for your finishing touch,
the basics already feel so that the full package still feels right
with plenty of potential.
The 1600cc air-cooled flat-four motor has a longstanding reputation
for durability. This has a clean look and updated components that
signal it's a strong runner ready for those who like to experience
their classic. You get proper control over the engine with the
smooth-shifting four-speed. The feeling out on the road has that
classic VW feel, and since the parts availability is huge, you can
often sharpen up the feeling with just a little bit of weekend
work.
This Bus is about being attractive for its price today and letting
you dream about all the different styles tomorrow can bring. After
all, the heart of the Type 2's appeal has always been about how
it's a personal expression. So it's time to make this one yours.
