Advice on pricing old VW Buses - 1955 Barndoor Standard

What is the full VIN #?
It looks like 20-11366?
yup that's it.

that mat looks torn up to me I really doubt its worth reusing if repro is available. that rear apron piece could be under all those parts in the van. if it was tucked up to the rear seat or possibly in the other van along with the correct motor. I will search for it once I get a chance.

Barn door cargo mats are not available so if it's not missing any pieces, I would lay it out flat to protect it from any further damage.

It appears to be 20-111366 Everett

sorry yes that's it I didn't notice the missing 1

EverettB · Posted: Mon Dec 08, 2014 5:36 pm Post subject:

Got it - I see I missed the first 1 in the 111 myself.

Thanks!

To confirm what is above - It's a January, 1955 Standard Microbus

I updated the thread title to be nicer.

Well whatever you sell it for you just won a small lottery when you find a barn door good job. You might as well keep the rear seats the guys on the other end of the pond just take them out and turn them into campers anyways. Smile

I pulled the ad because I would have had to take the day off of work to go through all the emails. I pasted a link to the this thread hoping people would read through it and get a good idea on it yet I still had people asking if it runs and how the floors are. A really nice guy from England wants to buy the bus. He made an offer the owner is very happy with and is just trying to sort out shipping. I'm giving him some time to make sure it's do-able before I take a deposit. Its not sold, just on hold at the time. Ultimately the best sale would be someone showing up with a flatbed handing over cash and loading the bus.

wonder what the currency exchange rate is for Canadian and the pound.

It may help you if you stated offers over? 20,30,40 grand what ever it my be.. best offer adds get a shit ton of tire kickers! I wouldn't worry to much about English buys.. It's their problem getting the bus.. not yours! They will find a way to get it picked up and shipped..
