1975 Volkswagen 21 Window Samba MicroBus 229 miles 1500cc 4 cyl
Rare and recent 2 1/2 years fully nuts and bolts restored example of this 1975 Volkswagen Bus conversion tribute 21 Window Deluxe Samba Microbus with skylight windows and cloth sunroof!This a highly desirable restoration and conversion tribute to a collectible Type 24 Bus (Deluxe 9 passenger Microbus). Most Deluxe Microbuses were ordered as Samba models (a $160 option) that included a sliding canvas sunroof flanked by 4 skylight windows on each side of the roof (that's a 23 window bus through model 1963 and a 21 window bus starting in model year 1964). The deluxe Microbus was Volkswagens top-of-the-line transporter.This is a superbly completed striking tribute to the iconic Type 24 Bus (Deluxe 9 passenger Microbus) which were originally marketed for touring the Alps with small skylight windows embedded into the roof for added viewing capabilities and were manufactured with the highest trim level available which included trim strips along the beltline and a dash clock! Most Deluxe Microbuses were ordered as Samba models (a $160 option) that included a sliding canvas 'Golde' sunroof flanked by the 4 skylight windows on each side of the roof.The body is razor straight and all the door and panel fits are original and as they should be and the bus is fitted with highly desirable 'original German' Safari front windows. The original 1500 single carb 4 cylinder engine was completely rebuilt and is matched to a 4 speed manual transaxle. During the restoration, the complete drivetrain was refurbished, including the engine, gearbox, differential and reduction boxes as well as a new carburetor was installed along with a vacuum advanced electronic ignition distributor, ignition coil, spark plugs and wires. The suspension, steering and braking systems were also refurbished with new parts as well as the 12-volt electrical system. Finished in the classic two-tone theme of 'Pearl White' top and 'Titan Red' bottom exterior it features eight chrome framed panoramic samba windows, a retractable ragtop canvas sunroof, a split windshield with safari windows, a wider trunk lid and a roof rack and ladder that combines stainless steel and wood.The interior features a walk-through concept with seating for seven, a double floor and a Samba model clock. It rolls on 14-inch painted wheels with chrome hubcaps.
