Yeah considering offers usually doesn’t mean lower than posted price anymore.

Everett, how does 524900 match pearl white? I thought pearl white was 523907 as mine is pearl white. Is mine 523907 because it's not a deluxe? Teach me please.

There are multiple codes for the same color. Also, some codes can mean different colors at different times. RED is whichever red was the regularly available red at the time the plate was stamped.
Specifically, for your bus 523907 is
5 special paint
2 transporter
3 kombi
907 paint code

I really don't know if it belongs here. There appears to be a 1962 23 window survivor "minus the newer engine" for $59,999.00 on e-bay "buy it now ". For what these things have been bringing in the past ,that price does not seem to bad, although out of my price range . I don't know maybe its a fake.

I believe this Bus is real but it needs a bunch of work.
The deck lid looks right to me?

I could've sworn this bus was listed for sale elsewhere not that long ago. Maybe Bring a Trailer? I feel like I've seen that color scheme especially with the green floor mats. |

Must be a scam ad.
Here’s the same bus on BAT, same pix, but $14k more.

Nice detective work!
I agree, probably a scam. |

They are not all og VW. The only good pair is aftermarket, rest are rusty.
It has been listed twice and I have told him this twice. Ad should be clarified. |

If anyone's ever in the Yakima, WA area, here's a really good deal on an original 1960 transporter single cab pickup. Needs work but a really good restoration candidate.

I can't believe the prices people are asking for single cabs and panels recently. I don't think they are getting them but I could be wrong. wouldn't be the first time. yes the special paint is definitely the coolest thing about this truck |

Yes, maybe I'm biased because it's a Single Cab and don't find them very valuable.
