VW Bus Westfalia Type 2 Transporter Westy 1977 Time Capsule Volkswagen

1977 Volkswagen Westfalia

Let me start by saying that I have owned a handful of antique VW's over the last 20 years or so, ncluding a few buses, nd not much compares to cruising down the street in the stereotypical 60’s/70’s VW bus, onking the horn at every one you see, topping into the car show and stealing all the attention, etting up camp at the edge of the ocean, r just having a safe place to sleep after camping. My plans were to kip it for ever, ravel across country with family and friends, Unfortunately I just bought a very rare vw R, o I need to sell my Westy to restore the new Karmann Mobil. With that said, lease, lease, lease- do not bid if you do not intend to pay- time is truly of the essence for me with selling and therefore relisting it will be quite a burden.

Well over 100+ pictures available! let me know i will send you more specific pictures or video.

This is an extremely solid, all original, 977 bus. I spent a very long time looking for a solid bus, hey are hard to find here in the north east. The reason I waited and searched forever before I finally pulled the trigger on this one- it is solid and all origina, o floors have been touched, he frame and wheel wells are excellent, nterior is complete with extras etc). This bus is extremely solid which is hard to find. Most of the factory undercoating is still present on all the floor paneling and frame rails, elping them standup over time without rusting and rotting, hich is very rare for a Bus of this age. No frame or floor patches. I included pictures showing the inside of the wheel wells which have just started to have some of the undercoating peel off, hich is incredible for a 40+ year old bus, nd you can also see the paint which was beneath the undercoating is perfect, ot even any surface rust, nd certainly no need to worry about rot. The frames and panels on most buses this age have been patched left and right, rust me I have looked. The only way to be comfortable you’re getting something relatively solid is by having original paint, hich this has. There are a couple minor flaws on the paint do to use camping. paint is 4 year old.

All outside and inside lights work including lisence plate light and interior dome light, orn works and directional lights.

Another thing that really caught my eye with this bus is the interior. The interior is in excellent condition. Dash is perfect no cracks and everything works except the radio is not hookup for some reason,we never listen to the radio i had no need to install. no fading on the material plaid color,include kid cot,original tool kit, urtains, riginal curtain wire retainer,see picture most of the time is missing, riginal German retractable seat belt, riginal back window screen. this bus was always garage . Has the awesome green plaid fabric throughout which is in excellent condition including the front seats plaid is perfect. The cabinetry is in great shape as you can see, including the sink, counters, rawers, reezer, tove and rear storage cabinets etc minor imperfection . the bus has all the extras dash small table,small storage box stool between seats, table extension, I have never cook inside so i haven't fill the Propane.The carpet in the main back area is new, nd is also in great shape for 40 years old. This bus has the full bunk bed up top, hich is great shape. Pop top goes up and down with ease, inges and clamps are good, nd the top itself is solid in great shape. The canvas is new with poptop protector bracket.

brakes are new, ires new and wheels are painted original color.

Bumpers are in excellent condition with the original bumper guards.

Lastly, bus has a brand new crate motor with a single carburetor with 3400 miles,very complete with all the original tins and seals to kip it cool, ushing the bus to 60 to 65 with out any problem, ransmission shift good with new clutch, riginal exhaust with heater boxes install but not hooked up.

If you’ve never owned a VW Camper let me say that you will love owning one! They’re a blast to drive and get a ton of attention. When you pull one of these into a campground you’ll notice quickly that it gets much more positive reactions than a $225,000 RV. Everyone has a story, everyone is happy so see it, nd for better or worse everyone asks for a ride.

I will not hesitate to drive this bus anywhere, ly in and drive it back..
