This is the raddest Vw bus I've ever owned. She's fun to drive and attracts A LOT of attention between her clean exterior, sound system and hilarious led lights. Automatic transmission but hey... Now your friend can (who can't drive a stick) drive you around as you crack open a cold one or have a dance party in the back. Just redid upper and lower ball joints, breaks, replaced master cylinder and steering box- she's ready to travel! Great daily driver. Been up and down the west coast a few times- just don't have the time for it since buying a New home. Has an incredible sound system (usb connection/charge and blue tooth) and funky little led lights all over it that makes it light up like a Tijuana Christmas party! One of the cleanest buses I've ever seen- one rust spot on passenger side as seen in photos. Pretty minor. Other than that no rust! This bus gets thumbs up and a smile anytime we're on the road! Sad to let her go. Message me if you have any questions or would like to see a video! Namaste
