Step back into an era where simplicity and utility met style with
this 1960 Volkswagen Transporter Pickup. This classic vehicle is
more than just a truck-it's a statement of timeless design and
practical charm that evokes memories of open roads and endless
possibilities. Restored approximately 22 years ago by ISP West VW
Parts & Restoration in Carson, California, this pickup has been
lovingly maintained and displayed in a showroom until recently. Its
vibrant red paint with a crisp white roof and bumpers captures
attention and invites you to imagine the stories you could create
behind its wheel.
Inside, the pickup offers a clean, no-nonsense interior that stays
true to its vintage roots. The gray vinyl bench seat provides
straightforward comfort, complemented by matching gray door panels
and headliner. The floor is carpeted with a Coco Mats liner, adding
a touch of protection and style. A Blaupunkt pull-out radio is
mounted under the dash, ready to fill your drives with classic
tunes. Minimal wear inside preserves the authentic feel, making it
a cozy and inviting space for any journey.
Beneath the hood, this Transporter is powered by a replacement
1.6-liter dual-port flat-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual
transaxle that includes gear reduction boxes, a "Freeway Flyer"
gearset, and a 3.88:1 ring and pinion for enhanced drivability. The
electrical system has been converted to 12 volts, modernizing its
functionality. Recent servicing in October 2024 included an oil
change, valve adjustment, distributor, fuel filter, fan belt, and
left rear wheel cylinder replacement. The mechanical upgrades
ensure smooth shifting through all gears and reliable braking with
manual front disc and rear drum brakes.
