Car description

Up for consideration is my 1969 VW Bus in good standing condition with clean title. I've had the pleasure of adventuring with this rugged beauty for the last couple of years now. Runs well and has had a lot of new parts installed recently (see below) basically completely re-built. It started its life as a service vehicle which is why it has the panels instead of side windows. I like it as it adds more discretion while camping and keeps heat better during chilly nights. The siren from its original service life is still functioning. The previous owner converted it to a Westfalia pop-to using the top and interior from a 1974 body. It also has a 2.5" lift by Wagenswest on the lift spindles and the rear was moved 1 click up. There is coil over shocks on all four corners along with 27" General Grabbers on 14" Appliance wheels. New engine has a mere 3,306 miles on it, but in her lifetime she has 156,710 miles.
With her lift, terrain tires, matte chalk paint & some rust, she's more for someone that doesn't wanna worry about driving through rough terrain, than someone that wants a vintage show vehicle. She's built for camping, and gets through impressive terrain considering she's a 2WD. The undercarriage is in good shape considering the year and there has been metal repairs prior to my three year ownership. There is some rust on this old lady, but the body overall is in good condition. I've tried representing the vehicle as good as I can in the images, but feel free to reach out with any questions and I'll do my best to answer.
