Description
Experience vintage adventure with complete peace of mind. I’m selling my 1976 VW Type 2 (T2) Kombi, the fruit of a professional restoration. This vehicle is not merely a revised classic, but a fully documented collector’s project (photos and invoices).
CHASSIS & BODYWORK: CONCOURSE CONDITION
Unlike typical imports, this bus benefited from a deep structural restoration:
• Full sand-blasting: the shell was stripped bare and sand-blasted completely to guarantee a 100% sound base (zero filler).
• USA provenance: imported for its solid base (dry climate), which allowed exceptional bodywork.
• Protection: always stored in a locked garage, no rust spots.
MECHANICS: POWER & RELIABILITY
Equipped with the original Type 4 engine, far more powerful and robust than the Type 1:
• Engine fully rebuilt and optimised: Weber twin carburettors, cylinders/ pistons, crankshaft, camshaft, valves and guides all new.
• Python exhaust: ideal torque for mountain driving and perfect sound.
• 2026 servicing: carburettor, tappets and geometry settings performed in April 2026. Oil change every 5, 000 km. Ready for any distance.
? PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING & TOTAL AUTONOMY
A modern interior within a vintage shell, designed for real “Vanlife”:
• Premium insulation: cork and hemp wool (thermal comfort in summer and winter).
• Sleeping: 4 berths (recent pop-top roof canvas).
• Power: solar panel, auxiliary battery and smartphone-controlled charger. Total autonomy.
• Kitchen & comfort: compressor fridge (genuine cold), sink (45L clean water/ 45L grey water), dimmable LED lighting.
• Accessories: orange outdoor awning, bike rack, roof bars, integrated thermal windscreen shades.
? PRACTICAL INFO
• Registration: Collector, 8 seats.
• Mileage: 44, 000 km since restoration.
• Detail: Original steering wheel slightly cracked (aesthetic only).
Complete photo dossier of the restoration (from sanding to reassembly) and invoices available at viewing.
