1965 Volkswagen Type 2 Bus Split-Window

This 1965 Volkswagen Type 2 is said to have undergone cosmetic and mechanical refurbishments between 1995 and the seller’s acquisition in 2017. It is finished in green and white over gray upholstery and is powered by a 1.6-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes 14″ steel wheels, white-finished bumpers, a wood roof rack, and two rear bench seats. This Type 2 is now offered at no reserve with two keys, spare parts, a surf board, and a clean California title in the seller’s name. Finished in green and white, the bus is said to have been repainted twice since 1995 during previous ownership. Exterior features include white-finished bumpers, a driver-side mirror, and a wood roof rack. The turn signals are not working, and flaws in the paint can be viewed in the gallery below. Steel 14″ wheels wear chrome VW-logo hubcaps and are mounted with 185/70 BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial tires. Stopping power is provided by drum brakes at all four corners. The nine-passenger cabin features a split front bench and two rear benches upholstered in light gray cloth with darker gray vinyl sides and backs. Additional amenities include a passenger grab handle, a fire extinguisher, and front sliding windows. The seller notes the Blaupunkt AM/FM radio does not work, and the rear benches do not have seatbelts. The two-spoke steering wheel fronts an 80-mph speedometer and a fuel level gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 36k miles, approximately 1,500 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown. Installed before the seller acquired the vehicle, the 1.6-liter flat-four sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle. Additional underside images are provided in the gallery. Filed under: vw
