This is the one to have... 1971 was the last year for the bug style (upright)motor, ast year for the low light early bumper body style and first year of the factory disc brakes....
With the rebuilt performance 1776 motor, uspension and brake work this bus runs and drives more like a car than a bus. The additional power from the upgraded rebuilt motor andlowered stancemake this bus perfect for highway and long distance driving. So much work went into this bus its difficult to list every thing that has been done. Hundreds of man hours and thousands of dollars went into the build of this bus. This is truly one of the nicest early bay window campers on the market today. I am regretfully selling to fund other another unfishedproject. This bus can be used as a daily driver orforcarshows. This van would be theperfect centerpiece for any VW collection.
