1964 VW Bus For Sale
This California based 1964 Bus has been in the same family since 1966.
An older restoration done to a nice driver quality level, still shows well
and is a clean fun Bus that is turn key ready to use.
Stock height, no crazy suspension lowering or customization.
Paint color is very pretty, not a factory color perhaps but boy it looks great.
The interior has been nicely done in a two tone vinyl.
Door panels are factory style and materials sourced from Wolfsburg West.
Center seat has been installed rearward facing to create a nice conversation pit.
A removable table comes with it that fits in between for having lunch, etc.
Front seat is the 60/40 bench design
Very clean inside with nice seat belts, factory style mats and so on.
Dash is super clean with no modifications.
Modern audio installed under the parcel tray.
Stock radio remains in the dash but is disconnected.
Clean steering wheel and horn button.
Speakers installed in the front kick panels.
Rear box speakers are easily moveable as desired.
Nice headliner. Carpet in the rear areas,
Here is the table in place...really makes for a cool hang out spot.
Door panels look great
Out back is a 1600cc 12 volt engine that was rebuilt roughly 22k miles ago.
Its a good strong runner that has been well maintained.
New muffler and battery installed last year.
Pretty solid Bus underneath with its whole life spent in California.
Still all factory original finishes under here...nothing hidden.
Still factory stock transmission with the gear reduction boxes.
A bit of road grime perhaps but no signs of horrific leaks or issues.
Good tires all the way around.
Brake system was flushed and bled last year as well.
New muffler and tailpipe
New fuel tank installed a while back as well
New Interstate battery
Pretty clean in here, but obviously not show level. Its a driver, not a trailer queen.
Original manuals
All body tags are present
Paint and body was done around 20 years ago
but still remains clean and pretty.
Nice gloss and smooth bodywork.
All window rubber and body seals were replaced at the time of the restoration.
Nice reflection down the sides.
There are some bubbles popping up at the base of the nose just above the bumper.
Nose is very straight
What a great face
Splash panel is in place under the front
There are a couple spots on the rain gutters where a previous repair is evident.
Better photos of this to come
Fresh air box
Rear bumper has a minor deformity along the area where it meets the bumper guard.
Center seat of course could easily be swapped to face forward if desired.
Under the rubber mats a smooth sheet of steel was installed by the owners father
years ago.
Rocker panel detail
There is one area where there was a little rust perforation in the floor as you can see here.
Small spot, certainly not structural .
Here is a larger section where the floor metal has rusted.
Keep in mind this has been treated from above and the floor has an extra later of metal across the top
so its certainly fine to leave as is, but the purist may prefer a more proper factory repair.
Along the back edge of the roof in the gutter is one of the areas I mentioned before.
A repair from ago that is starting to lift slowly.
Its been stable, but something is going on under there.
Front floors show signs of some repair and patching in the past as well
Good quality Blaupunkt audio unit.
A couple small paint chips on the bumpers
A few more interior shots just for fun
Another of the engine...fun to see the factory "governor" in place under the carburetor.
Those are so often tossed!
Frame rails and outriggers looking good
Pretty solid old Bus.
Not totally "rust free" as shown in the other photos
but she's a very sound and structurally solid example in my eyes based on these photos.
A closer pic in better light of the bubbles along the base of the nose.
Spare wheel and tire behind the seat
Hard to tell for certain here but the M code tag may be missing?
Overall for a final walk around it sure is a nice old Bus
Clean enough to be proud of but not so cherry that you would be afraid to use it.
Good Bus, and I love the history of it as well. Same family since 1966!!
Plenty of room to haul your friends and family
A clean place to put them too...very nice interior
So...are you the next owner to sit behind this steering wheel?
