VW Campervan Early Bay 1968 (RARE!) Tin Top LHD SOLD
I’ve owned the van for nearly 4 years, and in that time I’ve done around 3, 000 miles. He’s been serviced regularly and well looked after, and I have a folder full of history dating back to 1968.
New engine (1600cc) fitted in Jan 2012. All standard, no modifications. Sound underneath, no rot. Porsche replica chrome wheels and tyres (with added whitewalls) fitted in 2013 and in great condition. Full width rock 'n' roll bed, walk through cab and also comes with a two ring gas cooker and cabinet. Runs really sweet having had a full tune up prior to the very recent MOT.
He started life in Pasadena California in April 1968 (I have the original dealers handbook, owners card and service book). Having spent 30 odd years in California – mainly San Francisco by the looks of it - (tons of bills etc covering that whole period), he was first registered in the UK in Oct 2002.
Minor negative points: Red paintwork is fading in places, some rust spots coming through on the offside door sill (see photo’s) and a tiny hole (less than 1cm) in the passenger foot-well. Also rust bubbling in two spots under the engine lid. Photos of all of these available on request.
Fantastic condition for a 48 year old vehicle, and I’ve not seen too many 68 bays for sale in the UK.
GBP13, 500. 00 and I'm open to offers.
If you'd like to arrange a viewing or would like any more info please send me a message with your details and I'll get back to you ASAP.
