This 1974 Volkswagen Type II Custom Bus is a build that swaps its
original air-cooled roots for modern American muscle. Finished in a
classic two-tone blue and white PPG basecoat/clearcoat, it
maintains a vintage look while sitting aggressively on a 2-inch
lowered front axle and 17-inch Porsche EMPI wheels.The real story
is under the skin: it features a mid-mounted, fuel-injected
Chevrolet Vortec V-6 paired with a Turbo 350 automatic transmission
and a heavy-duty 10-bolt rear end. This setup transforms the Bus
from a slow cruiser into a reliable, high-performance
machine.Inside, the cabin blends utility with luxury, featuring a
custom suede headliner, Vintage Air climate control, and a tilt
steering column with electric power steering for effortless
handling. The driver?s experience is modernized with AutoMeter
gauges, a Lokar shifter, and the safety of front disc brakes. With
an aluminum radiator and custom fuel tank, this Bus is fully
engineered for long-distance, worry-free touring.Mid Mounted Fuel

specializes in collectible classic and custom vehicles. We have
more than 200 vehicles in our collection and have sold dozens
nationwide and even overseas. We recommend that all buyers who are
unable to view a vehicle in person have a pre-purchase inspection
done prior to purchase. Inspections can be performed by an
independent party selected by the buyer. Due to the age and
uniqueness of these special vehicles, it is difficult to cover all
aspects and characteristics of each vehicle?s condition within the
limited space available. Thus, pre-purchase inspections are helpful
to all parties involved. The information provided for this vehicle
