I have a SO35 Flip Seat interior, seats and cabinets that came from a '62. I need some help on determining a fair price for selling it as a complete set.

I bought this one minus the front seats/arms a few years ago for a nice bus that was missing alot of its interior... http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1968734
Your front seat/arms look a bit crusty but they're not cracked and the door cabinet is worth good money on its own. So35 is very cool but there might be less people looking for one. The og fabric is nice but odds are its not all nice. There are a few pieces missing what happened to the bus?

This was a family member's Bus, it t-boned a stalled flat bed truck on a cold dark and snowy night, some thirty years ago.

I would list it at $10k.
If some on has a shell, which is common, and they paid say $20k for it, that kit makes money sense.

I hear you say it had a dented nose. And where is the bus now?

That is awesome your family had the fore site to save all of that interior years ago. This would make someone very happy today. You see a lot of flip seats missing interior.

I'm sure you will get offers for certain pieces (door cabinet and table for sure) but I would try to keep it together if at all possible.

Yup... he's not wrong. If you do decide to part it out, shoot me a message. I'm just down in Portland. Smile

Sorry, if I said dented I meant to say DENTED.

I'm sorry to report that the body was parted out soon after the accident. These interior pieces have been in storage since that time.

You need to PM the guy in the Netherlands that just bought the empty flip seat bus.
