Drive; Comprehensively and well restored in 2012; rock n roll bed; curtains;
sound system; tow bar
You've probably already noticed the price
of a weeks' AirB&B these days....simply frightening! Here is the
solution.
Acquired late last year by its current owner, the bus is very
very reluctantly offered for sale simply due to the purchase of their first
house - needs must...
Comprehensively restored in 2012 - with photos show
this T2 completely stripped. Resprayed and repaired where necessary, it has been
very attractively trimmed inside and comes complete with rock and roll bed for
that perfect weekend away.
A quick look down the side of any T2
immediately reveals whether the restorer knew what they were doing, this bus
exhibiting nice ripple-free panels all the way round. The bodywork remains very
sound, with just a couple of areas where rust is peeping though on the front
arches by the doors.
In 2015 'The Engine Shop' supplied a fully rebuilt
engine, converted to run on unleaded petrol. The spec included a crack tested
crankcase, reground crank, new bearings, 1,641cc barrels and new cylinder heads.
It has only covered around 5,000 miles since.
A stainless exhaust system
has been added, supplied by Just Kampers and the bus has been set up for ease of
use and convenience, with lots of thoughtful additions.
The front seats
have been retrimmed in red with a cubby inbetween with cup holders. There
are coco mats up front too. In the rear there is a porta poti with pop
up tent and a breathable car cover which includes poles and
covering. Curtains are fitted and the vendor has also sourced a set
of black out curtains for a really good night's kip.
There
are twin roofracks for extra luggage or surf boards and it has a useful
towbar fitted too, and two new tyres were fitted late last year.
Driven
to us for the sale, it is ready to go and could be out there on the beach
next weekend of so desired. If 'living the dream' in a Bay Window
camper is on your agenda, this bus is well worth careful
consideration.
