1963 VW Bus For Sale



This Southern California based 63 Bus is one very pretty machine.



The current owners have had the Bus for the past 10 years and have had a lot of fun with it.
Lately its not getting out as much as it was in the past due to health issues,
so it has been decided that its time to share the fun with a new owner.


The paint and bodywork was done in 2017, further records that accompany the Bus go back to about 2010


It is super clean inside and out and gets compliments on every drive.
It has even won awards at local shows.


The personalized plate is a fun one as well which will go with the Bus
if sold to a California buyer.


Nice straight bodywork and clean paint


Smooth reflections down the sides and panel fit look good as well.


Locking T handle on the rear hatch is not an original but looks and functions well.


15" Bus wheels with nice black wall radial tires


Window and body seals appear to be in nice shape


Two post antenna mounted low on the passenger side


Chrome nose emblem


Windshield glass and seals look very good.


Definitely a "Happy Bus"












Interior of this one is super fun as well


Rock and roll flip out bed. Nice open floor plan.
Kenwood speakers throughout pump out your favorite tunes.


I love the throw pillows and those great red and white flower curtains.
Its just so clean and fun.


Nicely trimmed inside, very clean headliner,


Divider wall shelf has cup holders fitted in the shelf.


With the bed flipped out there is plenty of room for two to do a little light camping.


Super clean and cozy


And flipped back up for seating. Much storage below and seat belts to keep the passengers safe.


I love the airbrushed surf scene on the fresh air box.


What a fun place to sit and drive around this world.
There is nothing quite like the experience of driving a split screen VW Bus.


Coco mat on the floor looks great.


Clean dash, nice shifter extension and the radio is a "Retro Sound" unit
that has the classic original look but modern electronics and performance.


Seat upholstery is very clean




Door panels done with a simple clean two tone.


Odometer reads just 8680 miles.
Certainly not the original miles on the Bus ,
current owners have put on roughly 5000 of those miles over the past 10 years.


Oil pressure and temperature gauges fitted under the dash


Stock steering wheel is fitted with a padded cover






Very nice


Out back is a smooth running 1600cc engine.


Dual port heads and manifolds


New fuel tank installed in 2023


Bosch 009 distributor
12 volt electrics with alternator


Rubber engine seal along the rear apron is missing
but that is a fairly easy fix.


12 volt battery with cut off switch for storage and security


Brake backing plates all look clean and certainly hint towards
a full service of the brakes at some point.


New steering dampener is fitted, shocks look fairly new as well




Looks quite solid under here in the pics provided.














Overall pretty fair underneath cleanliness wise.
No big caked up globs of grease or grime


Transmission as well looks clean and most likely has had a rebuild at some point.


Over all its a pretty one and the owners state that it runs and drives very well and is
super solid and as quiet as a VW Bus could be with no crazy rattles or squeaks.


She's been garaged kept and well cared for and that certainly shows in these photos.


If you are looking for a good fun turn key happy split screen Bus
to play with, this one is an excellent choice. Bright and clean, well kept and well restored.
It may not be a flawless restoration or a top level trailer queen, but there is little joy
in that anyway.  This is at the perfect level to pile the family or some friends in
and head for the coast. It will me smiles all the way.
