1961 VW Deluxe Microbus For Sale


Here is one sweet Bus!
Great colors, great stance and mild custom touches and of course
it has that big ol sunroof and weenie windows up in the roof!
Awesome!


This Southern California based microbus is a very clean recently restored mild custom
that shows itself very well and is an excellent runner and driver.


Nice body and paint, has all the proper trim and details.


Glass is great, all fresh window rubber and body seals


Very smooth and straight down the sides.


Sweet looking ride for sure.


The moment of truth? Is it a genuine real deal German 23 window?
Well... it is a genuine German Deluxe, but the sunroof and skylight windows were added from another Bus.
So in short...this started life as a "sunroof delete" code Deluxe (a "15 window")


The installation is excellent and being a Deluxe model to start with,
nobody would ever guess it to be anything but factory, but we have to shoot straight and tell you the full story.


Sunroof opens and closes well, the top done in nice quality black canvas.




Looks sharp!


Safari front windows are a classic addition as well


There is nothing quite like that breeze on a nice warm day


Proper chrome ashtray on the dash, the safari window mounts are properly welded in place.


Factory Deluxe clock is present as well as a radio block off plate.
Dash looks very clean and unmodified.


Odometer reads 6219 miles as of these photos.
This is the actual mileage on the restoration and current engine.


Fresh air box is cleanly painted.


Headliner done in a black velour to match the interior.
Jail bars and luggage rail are present on the rear seat.
Nice to see the coat hooks in place as well.


Rear seat has the correct kick panel below.
Seat belts have been mounted for safety.


Matching center seat is included but was not installed at the time of these photos.


Nice to see the grab handle on the back of the center seat as well.


Door panels are done in a cool black and red two tone.
Nice carpets on the floor.


Headliner shot with the sunroof closed.




Walk thru front seats are a major bonus and a desirable option.


All done very clean and well trimmed.




Restored steering wheel with Wolfsburg crest horn push.


Empi trigger shifter  is the only non original control.


Very strong running 1776cc with 40 Weber carbs.
12 volt electrics with alternator.


Engine room is pretty clean.


Custom exhaust with stainless muffler tucks in nice and tight under the back of the bus.


Correct belly pans are here , underside has been undercoated.


Looks solid


Under the front


Chrome Porsche alloys front and back with nice quality Continental radials


Four wheel disc brakes on this Bus as well!!


You can peek in the wheel slots and see those nice rotors.




Transmission is a recent rebuild as well
and the gear reduction boxes have been eliminated so the Bus really runs quick and can keep
up with the fast paced modern world.


New front beam with adjusters, new shocks and tie rods and such.
All is nice and tight.


Last year for the bullet front turn signals.
Euro fluted headlight lenses.


Great looking Bus all the way around.
Truly the iconic image on wheels.


Clean, recently rebuilt from top to bottom, it is a genuine German Deluxe
and it has all the right trimmings. Timeless custom touches and tasteful modern upgrades
on performance and safety. This is a fantastic cruiser for the whole family.
