1971 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Description

This sweet bus was saved out of NJ where it had sat for a long long time. It looks alot worse then it is, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I got think this bus is freaking awesome. Comes with every piece of documentation since it was brand new. Based on the repair reciepts, this bus might in fact only have 15k miles. Every book, every repair reciept since new. Even had pics of the original owner in the 70's riding his motorcycle. Just some really cool history with these bus treasures. Truly a gem!!Pros:The bus runs amazing and fires up first time, everytime and has great power.Engine was overhauled recently and has Zero shaft play. Its nice and tight.All new sealsNew alterntor conversion and belt.New brake linesNew pads.New clutch and clutch cableRebuilt carb and dist.New throttle cable.New rear main seal etc etc.trans shifts great, tight and smooth. No grinding. No popping.Super straight bumpers with overriders.Solid floors, lower nose, rear corners.Brand new gas tank and sending unit.27" tires. Looks beefy and sits up higherUpper and lower cot.Awesome mother nature paint job.Cons.Outer rocker rust on both sides.Gas gauge isnt working at this time, but the sending unit is brand new and the gauge itself tested good. Ill try to have that sorted before the auction ends.I put all new brakes on, but the front rotors had surface rust. I cleaned them up, but the front passenger side is a little warped. You can feel it in the pedal, but the brakes do work really well.Needs a poptop canvas.

All in all this is a freaking sweet ride. Im confident the bus can be driven long distances if you wanted to fly/train in and drive it home. If shipped i can work with your shipper and over seas buyers are welcome too.
