1963 VW Split Screen Australian Container Van RHD   Price: 1963
Rare Australian Container Van built In 1963 RHD
Number differs in articles but roughly 110 made and about 10 or so known left although one pops up discovered now and then

An absolute fortune has been spent on the van and too much to list now but here’s a few

Full restoration
New paint , Oslo Blue, Grand Prix White and VW Chinchilla Grey inside
Porsche hubs and disc brakes
Creative Engineering standard front beam
Creative Engineering Safari Wind Kit
Type 2 Detectives rear axle conversion
bilstein shocks All round
Original seat frames powder coated and covered in custom leather
Original gearbox rebuild at Bear motorsports in the midlands (£1200)
Currently has porsche 356 engine (not included )
Comes with a period correct big bore VW engine running Porsche pistons and putting out about 2100cc

I’ve owned the van since 2016 when it was a rotten wreck and always planned it to be a food van, hence the sales hatch
Then covid hit whilst still in the garage being done and things just kinda went on hold from there! Only really driven it around my garden.
So perfect start to have a kitchen fit and start selling, or a perfect advertising vehicle.

Money wise I know what I have In it, hence selling the Porsche engine and downgrading the Fuch wheels and I still know I won’t t get it all back
2 container vans have sold in the last few years and here is the list prices

2018 49K
2019 58k

I dare say mine outshines both by far but in a cooler built
