NO RESERVE! 1972 VW Volkswagen Westfalia Camper Bus. New Paint, New interior.

1972 VW Volkswagen Westfalia Camper. Beautiful bus that has been partially restored. This bus will get attention wherever it goes. Lots of thumbs up!!
Newer paint, brand new custom interior, new wood interior panels, new wood floor, new canvas top, freshly painted fiberglass pop top, new pop top seals, new curtains, tinted windows, newly painted rims, custom front spare tire cover with VW emblem, all new window seals, lots of new rubber around lights, new tail light and turn signal lenses, custom wood tables, bumpers straightened and painted, new luggage rack rails, custom matching ice chest, and the list goes on.
This bus looks great but isn't perfect as to be expected for a 47 year old bus. The body has a few imperfections but pretty straight overall. Paint was done two years ago and still looks great. All the windows and top were removed prior to paint. Paint is nice but not a $10k paint job. There are a few imperfections here and there but looks great from 5 feet away. The interior was not painted and shows its original wear. This bus does have a little rust in a few areas (front floors have been patched), surface rust on interior metal, frame is solid. I am sure there was some bondo used when painted. Just want to set the right level of expectation. The bus is beautiful but not perfect. This was not a $30k+ restoration. If you are looking for a concours show bus, this not it. If you are looking for an affordable really nice looking bus that will still get you attention wherever you go, this is the bus.
Mechanically the bus starts, runs, and drives. Transmission shifts nicely. Just fully tuned up with oil change, new fuel filter, oil filter, cap and rotor, spark plugs, air filter etc. Would not recommend driving immediately on a long trip. Has been driven locally during the last couple of years as I was fixing it up but should be driven and gone through before expecting a long trip. Tires have good tread but are a little older. Interior is beautiful. Custom, expensive upholstery on all seats including rear z bed, new wood panels, custom homemade wood tables, new curtains, brand new matching canvas, etc.
Clean CA title that has been on non-op so no back fees.
