Our customer offers for sale this 1966 Volkswagen T2, originally built as a delivery van and later transformed into a versatile camper. Powered by a 1493cc 4-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual transmission, this iconic bus blends vintage character with functional upgrades. In 2014, it underwent a camper conversion, including a rock-and-roll bed, a sink unit with water supply and waste tanks, and modern seatbelts. Resprayed in its original yellow and white color scheme, the vehicle retains its period charm, complemented by Samba-style roof racks.
The paintwork shows minor scratches on the bumpers and slight rust near pop-out window trims, with stainless steel replacements available. The interior, largely updated in 2014, is clean and well-maintained, featuring leather seats.
