There is something timeless about stepping into a classic
Volkswagen bus and feeling the history and personality it carries.
This 1966 13-window deluxe walkthrough is the kind of vehicle that
sparks memories of road trips, sunlit campgrounds, and a slower,
more tactile way to travel. Finished with a recent repaint and a
like-new interior, it balances vintage charm with thoughtful
upgrades that make it enjoyable to drive today. If you have been
looking for an authentic 1960s VW bus with modern usability, this
is worth a closer look.
Inside, the cabin presents very well, giving a near-new feel for
its age. The deluxe trim has been removed for a cleaner walkthrough
layout and the seating surfaces and panels appear fresh. A Pioneer
retro-style radio with Bluetooth and upgraded speakers provide
modern convenience without spoiling the classic look. Overall the
interior reads as a well-cared-for, comfortable space ready for
weekend drives or car shows.
Under the rear engine lid sits a 1776cc Type 4 powerplant that was
swapped and rebuilt. The build included reduction gears and a Type
4 oil cooler to improve drivability and serviceability. The engine
bay is notably clean and presents well. Power is routed through a
4-speed manual transmission to the transaxle, and the bus benefits
from a rear sway bar addition for improved handling. Brakes are
drum all around, and the tires are modern 205/75R14s mounted on 14
inch wheels. Expect a solid, driver-quality experience with the
vintage air-cooled engines.

• Well restored 13-window deluxe walkthrough bus
