STK 2809 1974 Volkswagen Bus
The original focus of the VW Microbus was on function, but today it is a timeless piece of moving art. Volkswagen began production of the second generation Type 2 Bus in late 1967 and it continued through 1979. It was the forerunner to the many cargo and passenger vans that covered our landscape in the 80's and 90's. Our 1974 Kombi Microbus has undergone a complete restoration and is a splendid example of this iconic vehicle. Its exterior was professionally refinished in two-stage Brilliant Orange and Pastel White. The interior was restored to better-than-original with new orange/white vinyl seat upholstery and door cards. New carpeting was installed and the headliner is in very good condition. Power is provided by the 1.8L Type 4 air-cooled VW 4-cylinder that the owner states has never required a rebuild. Factory rated at 67bhp, the engine is currently fitted with an aftermarket 2V intake/carburetor and new custom exhaust system. This boxer motor is backed by a 4-speed manual transaxle and it runs beautifully. The solid chassis sports new rear half shafts/CV joints, 4-wheel drum brakes and steel wheels with nice radial tires. If you revel in the unique, this 1974 Volkswagen Microbus is your ticket. ALL VEHICLES SOLD “AS IS”.
