It had the Camper upgrades ( pantry in the side door, etc.), and was in pristine shape.No lifting roof like the Vanagons, in that era. Neat old Vans, that's for sure. The Gasoline heaters could be a pain, though. Be sure to post a pic after painting ! ------------------------------------ The one I have is a camper version but without the pop up roof. It's the old style with the split front windshield. Inside, there's an icebox type refrig, a water tank with a manually operated pump/facet and the rear seat folds down to form a bed of sorts. * It's pretty cool and runs perfectly. The guy I bought it from was a mechanic who rebuilt the engine, replaced floor pans and converted it from 6 volts to 12. * He was a decent mechanic, but a terrible body and paint guy. * It needs to be sanded all down, smoothed out and re-painted. *Actually has runs in the current paint, if you look closely. The year on the website is in error. *It's not a '66. *It's a '65 with a lot of '66 parts. http://www.eisboch.com/bus Eisboch Eisboch Yup, same one I saw on E-Bay. It was Sky Blue and white 2 tone. Had windows just like yours. As a matter of fact, it was just like yours. Look up the Men at Work video " Land Down Under " on you tube. They use a Bus just like that in the video. Called it a " Combi " , funny video. |
