Description

1966 VW Bus. Very Clean. Runs amazingly well... a pleasure to drive

- Dual 44 IDF Webers
- Mahle pistons and cylinders
- Carillo-style rods
- Pertronix ignition w/ rev limiting rotor
- Electric fuel pump
- Bosch mechanical/vacuum advance distributor (virtually no typical Weber 'flat-spot')
- A-1 Stainless Sidewinder exhaust with stainless heater boxes (sounds amazing and not obnoxious)
- Welded fan
- Porsche pulley for greater fan speed at idle
- All engine tin
- Large oil sump
- Remote oil filter
- Oil cooler w/ fan
- Final engine assembly and tuning by Oldspeed. Idles at 750RPM... no annoying fast idle from a bad tuning.
- Drop spindles and front disc brakes by Oldspeed
- Rear disc brakes
- Freeway Flyer Trans
- Straight axle kit
- Bilstein shocks
- New fuel tank and sender (gauge is off by 1/4 tank- needs rebuild)
- Windshield washer fluid bottle and sprayers are new and no fluid has been in them)
- All gauges are illuminated and operated by the headlight dimmer
- Custom headliner (base Kombis didn't have the teeth up front!)
- Period correct and year correct seats
- 8 seat belts (3-points in front)
- All new window rubber.
- New front glass (old laminates were bad)
- Euro headlights and taillights (rears are wired correctly!)
- Dynoed with the old Weber 40s on it and pulled 130HP at the crank!
- Custom speaker enclosure/storage in the back up top
- Steering wheel has been cut down and fitted with a beetle outer ring.
- Custom heavy-duty parking brake cables.
- Heavy duty accelerator and clutch cables (with throttle cable roller at fan shroud).
- Master power kill switch for storage and added security
- Lo/Jack
- Can sit for months and start on first try... no excessive cranking with elec pump and hi-torque starter.
- 15x5.5 steel chromed wheels (not the crappy thin ones that flex either).
- Front beam has NOT been narrowed... so wheels do rub on some bumps... I couldn't make up my mind as to whether or not I should do it. If you switch back the the 15x4.5 steel chromed wheels (included) it will not rub.
- Garaged full-time.- ODO says 16752
Disclosures:
- Missing VIN plate on overhead. Clean title
- Driver rear corner damaged and repaired at some point... not major... repaired but not with a new corner piece.
- Floorboard on driver side had a repair at some point... fiberglass reinforced but not cut
Comes with some extras too:
- Chrome passenger dash handle
- Cigarette lighter with ivory knob to match original knobs... can be mounted and wired to operate your phone charger
- Stereo has backup camera and (I think) optional navigation unit... screen slides out and open.
- plus some other things I can't remember...
Anything else you wish to know, please just ask. More pics available upon request. This is a well-built bus.
