Description

Welcome to the sale of our 1969 Volkswagen Split Screen T2 Micro-bus 15 Window Deluxe. The bus was fully restored back in 2018 and has been a successful Wedding transport side-line for us for the last 5 years. The bus is white over anthracite silver has the correct Truck rated tyres and upgraded suspension; this was to accommodate its use of transporting up to 6 wedding party at a time. I have copies of all the invoices to show how much went into this restoration, all paperwork is present including MOT`s (although MOT and Tax exempt) and plenty of photo`s to show the journey. I am the first UK registered owner since the bus was imported from Brazil in 2016.
The restoration saw the bus taken back to the bare metal, and the left side paned and part of the flooring panels completely replaced, this is a good genuine solid bus and the underside coated with “red oxide paint and undersealed”. The interior has recovered seats in the same vinyl used in the marine industry, cream with silver piping and an engineering wood floor, with all window seal rubbers replaced and new stainless steel rosewood steering wheel.
Mechanically the bus is sound all new bearings reconditioned GERMAN steering box was installed and new breaks throughout including brake pipes. A new wiring loom was installed, and all electricals replaced including lights and ignition system, all work correctly
A new 1641cc Engine and Gearbox was installed in 2019 and the reduction boxes were overhauled, new exhaust, clutch and a new carburettor fitted at the same time, giving the bus great reliability.
Some parts of the bus were not completed to show bus standard, the doors do not lock, and the cab windows will need attention.
This bus has been a great “well looked after” work horse and has always been kept in dry storage. Attending over 40 weddings with the colour being very popular with photographers and brides.
It would be an ideal investment for someone looking to start or add to a wedding car business or very easy to turn into a camper van.
