Description
Custom Rat Rod Volkswagen 1940's Panel Delivery Wagon Beach Party Bug
Built back in 1983 using a 1974 VW Beetle chassis and custom 40 Ford Panel delivery Fiberglass kit. Iacquiredthis little gem a few years ago and decided to go Rat Rod/ Steampunk with it. Really catches your eye and generates lots of thumbs up cruising around with it. 1600cc Dual port engine runs good and has had a recent tune-up,carb rebuild,coil replaced, starter replaced,new tires,etc. Custom wheels and adapters installed also. The lights work and stop lights work but no turn signals. Turn signal lever is still on column so you could install some if you like. Gas gauge works and heater fan works, Windshield wiper motor works. Brakes are good but emergency brake cables need to be hooked back up in the rear.The original lever and cables are in place. There has been plenty of patching on the floor and it is holding up fine for me just cruising around town. Installing new floors would really beef it up and they are available on ebay for around $280 for both pieces. I've done the job once years ago and I was surprised at how easily they pop into place. The back was done in a black carpet material.This is a cool little rat rod in driver condition. It is at the stage where you can take it further in either direction. I saw one of these back in Santa Barbara in the 80's. It was done in sea blue with a surfboard on top and simulated wood sides. It had a surf shop mural painted on the side and it was the bomb. Any questions fire away. These do not show up often so grab this one while you can.
Please do not make offers on this vehicle unless you are prepared to follow through with payment. In other words make sure the wife will not goballistic on youwhen it shows up in your driveway.
