1971 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon transporter Tyler 2 9 passenger Description

this bus is unrestored, a Maine original. Still has MORONG FALMOUTH dealer decals, title from 1989, and paperwork indicating a motor rebuild in 1977, owners manual, and keys. This VW bus has never been restored, and was last inspected and on the road in 1990. Manufactured 10/71.
This bus does not currently run, although it does turn over on a fresh battery or a jump. It comes with the rare gas powered heater, although it has had the gas lines disconnected. The interior is original and in impeccable condition, with no serious floor rot or tears in the headliner. All th glass is intact the tires need replacing, as age and dry rot have leaked the air and are flat.
There is some body rust and paint discoloration, indicating that bodywork has been done to the drivers and passenger sides in the past. I do not know to what extent it has been repaired. This bus is supposedly the original employee transporter for AMHI, Augusta mental health institute from the 1970s.
This is a rare chance to own an all original VW TRANSPORTER bus, which are getting extremely rare to find in this condition. Save thousands and restore your own bus!
This bus is currently in Augusta Maine and is also for sale locally on CL. I can deliver for an agreed price via flatbed trailer service within 1000 miles of Portland Maine.
