Looks like a 63 to me, thin lip dog legs and flared rear wells. No pic of the seat brackets though. Looks like a nice one for the price, it'll be gone tomorrow I'm betting. |

|
|
I bought a nice drivers seat for my '66 walkthrough for a great price from a member here 'named' stuco.
These seats are hard to find and even harder to find as a good deal. Thanks stuco. |

I was going through the classifieds specifically trying to find a camper bus for myself. I have been stumbling upon this time after time and I still don't know why it has not sold. I have seen some overpriced in my opinion "crap" sell for ridiculous amounts but this seems to be a ok ish bus.
The only downside I really see if the rear fenders were cut out and it needs new bumpers.
If the price is right and it is still available I might consider heading out to go see it when I have more time. Shame it is not closer to me.

I'm old & think all these Buses are OVER PRICED. Anywho, that does not look like a bad deal, not much rust, rear fenders can be found, Bumpers are not that big a deal (I have a super solid but dented one for $80) I find it weird that it has no drivers seat, but all that is "Wrong/Bad w/ the Bus is cheap compared to bad ROT. _________________ Tom

My thought exactly.
Honestly I have been surprised with how expensive these busses have become. About 6 or 7 years ago I badly wanted one to be my first car and my dad ended up talking me out of it as a daily to get to and from school. That was back when you could get a really nice one for $5,000. Now that I have a dedicated daily and some spare time on occasion I am saddened to find that those $5,000 buses are now selling for $25,000.
I am still in college but I would love to finish a nice camper project. For now I am just playing the waiting game for a nice walk through non panel split window bus. Preferably a 67 SO-42 but just about anything at this point would do. |

It's not everyday you get to saw off a roof of a splitty to help a fellow hobbyist!
It was great meeting you Matt. I really enjoyed your stepdads stories as well.
Let me know if I can help in the future. _________________ Looking for SO34 parts.

In this day, if you want a bus that you like and can afford, you may have to travel to go get it.
Im still calling that a nice bus |

Guy got back to me. It has no title. I'll keep looking for a different camper. Damn. And I thought I was close to a nice bus project. |

I thought he also said previously in the ad that the camper interior in it is not original to the bus. I could be wrong but the no title thing is a bummer. _________________ RPM=(MPH*336* (R&P*4th*1.26))/Tire Diameter in inches |

sign on, then go to the top of the screen, click on control panel, once it takes you to the new screen scroll down to about the middle of that page, on the left side click on "classified alerts" then enter whatever it is you want to be alerted on in the "Classifieds Keywords" box |

Here's the ad, he must have re-listed. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1751389
But, I think you posted in the wrong place. $32.5K is not a good deal. _________________ nothing |
