One of the best you are likely to find. We run a workshop with a team of meticulously trained specialists that have worked hard together to create this special bus. We only have the capacity to build a certain amount of these buses each year as each one requires an enormous amount of time and effort to reach the finished product. This bus offers a unique and rare opportunity to acquire one of our buses now without any lead time. It is ready to go with the turn of a key!

Sought after Right Hand Drive model that we have fully restored to a very high standard and high specification throughout.

A local bus to us for many years and having been mainly kept in the dry meaning we had a really good shell to start as the basis for restoration. The bus has been stripped, carefully prepared and repainted in our favourite early VW colour scheme, Titian Red / Beige Grey.

This is a first class restoration that involved stripping down all of the exterior components including the restoration of the pop top roof with a brand new colour coded canopy to match the body.

Original steel wheels sand blasted and painted, fitted with brand new vintage whitewall tyres and polished hub caps.

Fully reconditioned 1600cc engine. Reconditioned brakes and other mechanical components wherever required. Geneberg Quick shift gear linkage. Wood rimmed steering wheel.

Brand new high end bespoke interior built by us. Please look at our Instagram to view some of our interior work. This is our favourite part of the restoration giving the opportunity to be creative and stylish throughout with the design.
