1979 VOLKSWAGEN BUS / TYPE 2
1979 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Description
This is my 1979 VW Bus that I am selling. I have owned it since 2003. I restored it back then... (you can see what it looked like when I first got it in the pic with all the stickers on it). I was well on my way to finishing up the whole thing... A/C etc... when we moved from FL. to Louisiana. I left the Bus at our house in Florida to use as a beach buggy but as time went on the salt air started getting to it so I brought it here to our Louisiana house. I had all intentions to repair the rust but I bought an airplane and thats where my attention is directed.The mechanics of the bus are good... Its powered by a 2.0 fuel injected engine... the same motor used in the porsche 914. It has A/C on board which held pressure last time I pulled a vacuum on it... I hadn't tried to get it working yet. The starter has some issues, every now and then I have to jump the solenoid with a screwdriver but I have a retrofit kit that cures the problem. I haven't installed it as of yet. I broke the rear driver window mowing the grass but I have a replacement one that will go with the vehicle as well as numerous nick nack parts that go with the bus. It mainly needs a good owner and some TLC... Its biggest issue is the body rust. I bought an el cheapo muffler a while back and 1 year later it rotted and fell off. Don't ever do that.It has a clear FL. title it runs and drives fine (a little loud with no muffler) and I will be happy to answer any questions one may have.I hate to see my Bus go but I'm trading my wheels for wings!The actual mileage is really unknown.Thanks for looking!!
