For Sale at Auction: 1972 Volkswagen Bus in Palm Beach, Florida

Vehicle Description

Originally a 19-window microbus, this 1972 Volkswagen Type 1 was restored and converted into a 23-window Deluxe Samba. The re-creation is powered by a new upgraded 1600cc 4-cylinder engine with a single carburetor, paired with a 4-speed Freeway Flyer manual transmission. The front suspension was completely rebuilt and fitted with a height adjustment system, while the rear suspension was also rebuilt to the original standard but lowered by 2 inches. A brand-new steering roller box with a precise roller system was installed. The front and rear drum brake systems were entirely redone with new parts. The electrical system is either new or restored to like-new condition. The exterior features a two-tone Vanilla and blue paint scheme, a pop-out safari-style split window, a sliding ragtop sunroof, a luggage rack with a ladder and eight skylights. Additional details include a new set of green glass, new stainless-steel mirrors and handmade headlights with angel-eye lanterns. It rides on 15x5.5 steel wheels with chrome-dome hubcaps and new radial tires. The interior is fully customized with blue and white eco-leather upholstery. The front seats three with retractable seat belts, while an L-shaped sofa in the rear accommodates up to five passengers with five seat belts. It features a built-in Smart TV with Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity, a touchscreen multimedia system with Bluetooth and a rear camera, a laminated wood floor, a restored speedometer with an added green LED light, and new chrome dual sideview and rearview mirrors. ** PREVIEW
