1966 Kombi
£10,995

Just in from the US west coast is this very solid and unmolested camper based on a 66 kombi.

This is a very original bus in solid and complete condition. The original colour is Dove Blue which can be seen on the dashboard and other interior areas as well as the roof whilst the rest was repainted at some point in the same colour. It has great patina where it has faded back to the primer in places and would look cool just buffed up and waxed.

Bodily the bus is very good and has original sills, arches, doors etc. The underside is superb, even the jack points and outriggers. No welding has been carried out prior to our purchasing the bus. There are a couple of small areas needing a little metal work but these are minor and the repair is included within our asking price. In brief its a minor repair on each side of the cab floor. Straight forward work that will be done to a high standard.

The bus will receive our usual check over mechanically in preperation for mot, the brakes will be rebuilt with new cylinders and master cylinder, rebuilt kingpins fitted, new tyres all round, engine serviced, oil changed etc etc. We fit new headlight beam units, fit new seatbelts in the front and make sure its all up to mot standard. We are also converting it to 12 volt with an alternator upgrade.

A nice unmolested bus with character, i love this one just as it is..

To be sold with MOT, tax and UK reg.

1963 Beetle
£4,750

This nice original 63 has come in from Scandinavia. An original turkis (L380) coloured car and still shows the original colour code sticker under the bonnet. The car comes with its original VW keys, service book, instruction book and VW document wallet as pictured.

The car has spent its life in a region where theres no road salt used in winter and away from the coast. It is a very solid car. It was repainted some time in the early 80's in the original colour. The interior is in original paint. Doors, engine lid and bonnet are rust free. Chrome work on bumpers etc is all original german chrome and shines well.

Internally the car is very nice with only a very small patch of wear on the upper driver side seat backrest. Its all original upholstery and in very good condition for 46 years old! The headliner and door panels are nice and original too. Carpets were replaced at some time.

The tyres are new on all 4 original wheels with beauty rings and original german chrome hubcaps.

The brakes were checked over and new wheel cylinders fitted recently.

In the back is a standard 1200 engine which starts and runs well. The last owner told me it was replaced 30000 km's ago by a vw main dealer. It certainly seems to be true as its a clean nice running motor. The engine was just serviced, oil changed and its ready to go.

1970 Westfalia Camper

£15,500

Here we have a beautiful 1970 Westfalia Campmobile that we imported from California and have renovated to very nice condition. We imported the vehicle in a structurally solid but sunbleached condition and have over the last few months brought it up to the condition you see here.

Starting with a solid base vehicle we stripped it back to a shell. The body was then prepared and repainted in its original Montana red colour. The wheels, bumpers and nose emblem were sandblasted and along with the roof painted in pastel white. The colours work well together. Underside this bus is really superb with original jack points, sills, outriggers, floor and chassis all in excellent condition.

Inside is the correct original Campmobile interior with sink, cooler box, wardrobe, table, double bed, roof bunk and cab bunk. The cabinets are in good condition and have all been fitted with new original style door handles. The headliner has been redone using quality veneered ply similar to the original as have the interior side panels. Theres new prefessionally done upholstery on the rear seat, bed and rear facing seat. The bunk in the pop top has new canvas too. The cab seats are done using the original basket weave upholstery that matches the also new exact reproduction front door panels. A set of quality lined curtains have been made that fit around the whole bus including the cab and a pair of matching cushions finish off the inside.

We have restored the pop up roof and fitted a top quality new canvas with zipped windows and insect screens, new rubber seals and original style Westfalia decals too for that finishing touch.

The Windscreen is new as are all the window seals and door seals. Opening quarterlights are fitted in the front doors. Both louvred side windows are functioning correctly.

Mechanically the bus has a (rebuilt at some point) 1600 sp engine which we have compression tested with perfect results, stripped and repainted the tinware, fitted new gaskets where necessary, new clutch kit, new german exhaust, original german heat exchangers, full service inc oil, clearences, plugs, points, leads, cap, condensor etc etc it runs great and is ready to go..

The brakes were also overhauled with new shoes, cylinders, flexi hoses and master cylinder. New quality CV joints, boots and grease too. All 5 tyres are brand new commercial 8 ply's giving a more positive feel on the road.

There has been a lot of work done on this bus and as it was done to a dry climate import you can rest assured that your getting a bus thats as solid as it looks and you wont have to worry about welding at MOT time..

Supplied with Full MOT and UK reg ready to go at £15,500 inc VAT

1966 Split project
£POA

Arriving from the US west coast in early August is this 66 microbus restoration project.

That said it is a great basis for restoration.

More pics and info on arrival.

1963 Splitscreen project
£Sold

Just in from the USA is this 63 splitscreen restoration project.

It is a California import vehicle that is largely solid but does have some rust repair needed.

Originally the bus was a Turkis and blue white standard microbus which was then repainted in a more modern splitscreen colour years later. It has a nice front panel, very good chassis, good outriggers and cross members too. The inner wheel arches are excellent in the rear and needing only very minor work in the front. At some point someone broke the windows in the bus allowing the cargo floor and cab floor to get wet and therefore these two floors need repair or perhaps to do a nicer job replacement. All panels are available and are inexpensive. In addition to this the battery tray needs to be replaced and the rear wheel arch lips need to be refitted following a funky 70's modification allowing big wheels to be fitted at the back. The roof is good with only some surface rust around edges, under the windscreens (a common rust area) is superb, the chassis is excellent too. The work needed is nothing out of the ordinary for a split bus and should make for a straight forward restoration.

Supplied non running with no motor. Has steering, gearbox, suspension etc intact.

SOLD

 

1963 Split Camper
£Sold

A new arrival in from the USA is this 63 splitscreen camper.

Originally ordered from VW as a walkthrough model panel with the 1500cc engine upgrade option.

The bus is in solid condition with minimal rust. There is some but nothing serious and a few days work only. In fact if its just MOT welding probably a day or two would cover it. Bodily the bus is quite good with minimal denting or damage. Good solid doors end engine lid.

It has been off the road for a few years so will need mechanically going through. The engine is the 1500cc unit which is complete and original looking but hasn't run for years and wont turn by hand. It may free off with some lubrication down the cylinders but may need a rebuild.

Inside the rear has the rock n roll bed mechanism and the wooden headliner from when it had the camper interior but otherwise its empty ready for fitting out as you please. The bulkheads have been trimmed out by a previous owner but we have a pair in stock that would fix that easily otherwise it lends itself to the fitting of swivel seats.

An easy project bus that will come on fast and has loads of potential. A file of 39 pics is available upon request.

Delivery available reasonable cost.

1970 Westfalia Camper
£7,500 +

This Montana red early bay Westfalia pop top camper has been imported from dry Northern California.

A good early tax exempt family camper that can sleep 4 or more with the addition of an awning. The original camping interior is still fitted with wardrobe, rock n roll bed, table, cooler box etc.

The body is exceptionally solid with an excellent underside and no real rust to speak of. A nice straight body too with original sills, wheel arches, doors etc all rust free. The paint is a very old repaint which cleans up for a patina look but would need a repaint to be a shiny beauty.

The bus starts, runs, drives and stops as is but needs going through for the MOT.

We have various options available on this one.

As is for £7500

On the road with MOT, brakes rebuilt, new tyres etc and UK reg for £8995

Additional work possible but we would need to discuss your requirements and quote for that.

We have removed the spare wheel from the front and fitted a correct 10" sizew VW emblem in its place. More photo's to follow soon.

1978 Westfalia Berlin Camper
£5,995

Just in from Nevada is this rust free camper project bus.

This bus has been basking in the sun all its life and it shows as its super solid. Looking around the body it has all original body panels still in tact. Sills, arches, doors, corners etc are all superb.

It is a pop top Berlin model with the 2 double beds and cab bunk so capable of sleeping 5 or more if you are very friendly! The cabinets are all in place in the back and some repair to the surface laminate will be necessary. The front seats are original high backs with headrests and are original upholstery but need re padding at least.

The last owner bolted in a 2 litre motor which is said to be good so its in there and should be ok but we canmake no gurantees of its condition having not heard it run.

The body is very nice and straight with just a couple of fairly minor dings and dents that would be easily sorted at paint job time.

An excellent basis for very light cosmetic resto and huge potential to be an awesome camper or even a money spinner if you are handy and looking for a project.

Now in stock in our Swansea warehouse. As with all our vehicles delivery can be arranged at reasonable cost.

1979 Westfalia Berlin
£6,995

An original paint unrestored Westfalia Berlin camper with very straight body and in need of very light restoration.

Being offered as a light project vehicle in non running condition and been out of use for a couple of years. The last owner has changed the motor but not finished the job so theres a 2 litre motor bolted in but not all hooked up and running.

The body is a lovely straight original paint example which will be so easy to work with to bring this bus up to superbb condition. The underside is rust free and in really superb condition. The cab floor is perfect and original paint as is the cargo floor. The doors are superb too. No rust under the windscreen or around the roof guttering. There are i think 4 areas needing minor repair which are on the lips of the wheel arches. Early stage rust that has not spread far at all and therefore can be easily fixed. Id say a couple of days max would see it al fixed. The original paint gives you the knowledge that the bus doesn't have filler.

This is the deluxe berlin with the 2 ring cooker, gas tank, fridge and leisure battery. There are sleeping spaces for 5 people so perfect for family use. Theres 2 double beds and a bunk in the cab. The inside is in really great original condition with the exception of some upholstery which has become discoloured or worn.

A superb camper to develop for your own use, for rental or for resale as theres plenty of scope for a fast turn around.

More pics on request. Delivery available.

1967 Splitscreen project
£Sold

Just in from California is this splitscreen project bus.

This is an excellent basis for restoration as it has been in a dry state its whole life and although there is some rust repair needed it is not extensive and should be a straight forward fix.

The bus has very good outriggers, chassis, cargo floor, good sill on longside etc. Needs work on the cab floor outer edges, under windscreen mainly on the passenger side, sill under side doors, roof edges and battery tray area as well as some other individual repairs here and there. The underside pictures show how solid it is below.

The bus is mostly complete so there's minimal parts hunting to do. Parts that are missing are the engine, rear bumper and valence. We have some of these parts in stock which can be bought at additional cost.

Being a 67 model it has 12 volt electrics, twin speed wipers, dual circuit brakes, larger radio slot, improved gearing and a couple of other 67 only features. As the bus has been out of use for a while it will need recomissioning.

A very worthy candidate for restoration or just do the welding and mechanics and drive it for this season then finish next winter.

A file of pictures will be available very soon showing more areas of the bus.

 

1967 21 Window Deluxe 'Samba'

£Sold

This is a 67 Walkthrough model deluxe 21 window microbus that has been imported from California.

67 is the last year of splitscreen production and being a walkthrough this is a desirable model. Its packed with nice features and hard to find parts such as long sliding sunroof, roof windows and extra rear side windows, aluminium waistline and sill trims (which are all present), bumper trims, six pop out windows and of course the walkthrough front seats.

It is a project vehicle but an excellent basis for restoration and has the majority of the hard to find parts included. The bus has been stored in a very dry climate but has been off the road for years so will need going through mechanically and some welding to the following areas. Sills, jack points, battery tray, belly pans, small floor repairs too. However the roof is very good especially for a samba, front floor is good with only a small repair needed, doors seem good, windscreen sills are solid, front panel and valence solid.

The majority of the glass is original sekurit logo's toughened not laminated and seems in good condition.

Some parts missing but mostly there. Rear bumper blade included without overiders or trim.

1979 Riviera Camper
£Sold

This is an extremely solid original bus that you can see has been looked after and never neglected.

In fact the body is in such superb rust free condition it seems that the bus has been garaged whilst not in use for the majority if not all its life. The paint is mostly original and all the original body panels are present an not changed. Just look at the sill picture, clean as they come. The underside is just as good.

All the features you need in a camper are there. Cooker, sink, fridge, toilet, wardrobe and sleeping for 4 with the option to expand that to 5 easily. The pop top houses a large double bed and theres the double rock n roll bed down below too. I have never seen a camper with this interior in as good a condition inside as this. The pop top and canvas are in good condition too. Both centre side windows are sliding windows for ventilation and are fitted with insect nets. The cab area is nice with a glossy good condition dashboard, nice headliner and what looks to be original upholstery seats that match the rear.

The 2 litre motor has had new carburettors fitted recently and runs very well. Starts first time every time and purrs nicely. We will give it a service and oil change prior to sale so its ready to go.

An all round great camping bus in superb condition and with a great 70's feel to it.

1977 Westfalia Camper
£Sold

We have recently received this superb rust free Westfalia camper in from California.

This really is a 'rust free' bus and has been sourced from a non costal area of California which shows as it is rock solid. The body has all original metal work and it has never been welded before and no rust. A bus like this looked after will last for a very long time and you will not need to worry about welding or rust at MOT time every year.

The layout of this camper offers the very best use of space inside due to its swivel passenger seat and units down the one side. There are two double beds, the one up in the pop top is huge and the lower one is large too. Add to this a cab bunk for kids and you have a 5 berth camper. Perfect for families.

Other facilities are sink with running water, cooler box, leisure battery with internal sockets for powering your camping accessories without flattening the vehicle battery.

The 2 litre engine was recently rebuilt by a well respected VW shop in Northern California and looks super clean and runs great. Its a hydraulic lifter 2 litre injection which is the smoothest running, most capable of the engines fitted to these classic campers. Coupled with the 091 gearbox this gives the best combination that the VW factory offered for use in todays traffic.

Due to a few paint imperfections, scratches and minor scrapes we are repainting the bus fully, fitting a new top quality roof canvas, replacing the window seals and generally giving it a light and sympathetic resto.

The bus will be a super nice totally rust free family camper ready to go on holiday, weekends away or just day trips to the beach. We aim to complete this in late April / early may ready for summer.

To be supplied with MOT, UK reg and ready to roll. Price on application..

1960 Deluxe microbus
£Sold

A rare opportunity to purchase such a nice original unrestored example of a VW deluxe microbus with interesting history,

The 'Brock' bus was originally sold on 2nd August 1960 by Dick Coffey Inc Huntsville Alabama to Lawrence W Brock a local Zenith TV repair man. The bus was used for his daily business vehicle calling to customers to repair their TV's and radio's. The bus was only used locally and therefore clocked up only 60000 miles on its 1192cc 36hp motor before he finally stopped using it in 1978. The engine had been replaced by the dealer in 1962 and since they used a new case the original engine number was stamped onto it so matches whats in the original service book. This motor was fully rebuilt when in the hands of a previous VW collector owner in Missouri during the late 90's. The bus now has a little over 70000 miles on the clock so that motor is still super nice and fresh. Runs like a watch.

The bus is amazingly original and appears to have never been welded or repaired at all. The interior is fully original too. I recently sent off all the seats to a professional upholsterer to have some of the stitching replaced where the seams were opening. As the vinyl was not split this was a very sucessful repair and the seats now look great. Still original vinyl with the marks and stains to prove it but with very nicely re stitched seams so no splits or holes. The headliner is also original throughout. All door cards are correct and original, divider wall panels are really great condition. Superb original paint dashboard with nice og clock. Working ambulance fans. All original long spoon pop out window catches. Some areas inc the roof , wheels and bumpers are repainted but the rest appears original and the body with the exception of a couple of very minor dings is superb.
