Description
Lot #1116.1 - This 1962 Volkswagen double-cab bus has been rotisserie-restored by the talented craftsman at Overland Imports with a Resto-Mod feel and features. This bus was originally built by VW in Germany for the export market and was imported by Volkswagen of Brazil when new. During that period the Brazilian market did not offer a domestically produced double-cab truck version. The bus is powered by the original 1200cc Flat-4 engine, which has been bored and stroked to a 1,700cc with dimensioned ceramic-coated aftermarket exhaust system and mated to a 4-speed manual transmission. Finished in a red exterior with deluxe exterior trim, color matched roof rack, and a white vinyl and waxed canvas interior with tan carpet. The bus has been slightly lowered and sits on factory 15-inch color-matched two-tone wheels wrapped in brand-new Continental Vanco four-season tires. Stopping power comes from upgraded front disc brakes and factory rear drums. The tailgate and both bed sides can be lowered for access on all three sides of the truck.
