| Joe's Cool Cars |
Boy Oh Boy....This is just an amazing, and rare double door bus!!! I
seriously contemplated restoring it back to the original ruby red paint, but
fell in love with the patina finish. They say that anybody can have a shiny
new paint job, but it's taken 48 years of natural sun and weather to look
this cool...Plus you can see exactly what you're getting . Buy selling it this
way, I can keep the price down and the lucky new owner can drive it just
the way it is,or restore it at their leisure. Of course it could also be
lowered and you'd have the baddest rat camper on the road.
Mechanically this bus is as good as it gets!!! It just runs and drives like a
dream. With a rebuilt 1600 dual port motor converted to 12 Volts with less
than 1500 miles on it. (unfortunately I did not receive any paperwork with
the bus) The transaxle shifts smooth and doesn't grind or pop-out of any
gears. Front-end is tight and doesn't wander or clunk. New brakes all the
way around stops straight with great pedal. All rolling on brand new tires
with fresh new hub caps.
I left the best part for last, the way hip Westy camper interior!!!
Completely insulated with foil back insulation, new paneling, curtains,
and carpet. Retro fitted with original Westfalia cabinets, closet, bench,
and bed. The van just feels warm and sounds tight going down the road.
Not to mention that it is so practical and most importantly, looks so nice
inside.
I could go on and on about this groovy fun bus, but I think that I'll just cut
to the chase and list some of highlights:

-Rebuilt 1600 Dual Port
-New Carburetor
-12 Volt Alternator

ELECTRICAL

-Original paint on dash looks fantastic

-Nice original rear bench/bed
-New paneling
-Newer front door and kick panels
-Newer front seat in original style vinyl
-Clean original cabinets
- New Marine Carpet
MISCELLANEOUS

-New Curtains

FUN STUFF

So it's getting late and I need to get this listed....If you have any
questions feel free to call me @720-270-5637. If your local and serious
your welcome to set up a personal showing. I am open to reasonable
offers on my Buy It Now if you don't want to wait for the auction to end. Be
sure to learn more about me by clicking on the "me" link next to my
feedback. As a licensed Colorado dealer I have sell the bus as miles
exempt due to its age. It is pretty neat that the odometer reads 62
thousand miles and it's a 1962 bus. Good luck bidding and thanks for
checking out my auction.
Peace, Joey
