For Sale at Auction: 1974 Volkswagen Bus in Palm Beach, Florida

Vehicle Description

This 1974 Volkswagen 23-window microbus re-creation was an original luxury Type 2 Kombi that underwent a one-year refurbishment before being imported to the U.S. by Advance Miami in December 2024. The exterior is finished in red with a white-painted roof and bumpers, complemented by a retrimmed white-and-red interior. Power comes from a rebuilt 1.6-liter air-cooled flat-4 engine with dual carburetors, increased air and fuel intake, and a revised 4-speed manual transaxle. The suspension has been overhauled, and the vehicle features new brakes, new tires with inner tubes and an upgraded steering box. Additional equipment includes chrome VW hubcaps, painted steel wheels with trim rings, dual wood-slat roof racks, flip-out front windows, Safari windows in the front and rear, dual side mirrors, bright exterior trim and a retractable cloth sunroof. The interior features three rows of bench seating upholstered in white cloth with red accents, ceiling-mounted courtesy lights, lap belts, a second-row padded bulkhead, chrome grab-handles, and removable second- and third-row bench seats secured with floor brackets and wing nuts. The white two-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-km/h speedometer and a fuel-level gauge. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 1,375 kilometers (approximately 860 miles), though total mileage is unknown. This Volkswagen bus comes with a spare tire and import documents. ** PREVIEW
