This 1966 Volkswagen Bus was delivered new to the port of New Orleans, Louisiana finished in two-tone Pearl White and Velvet Green paint this is on the bus now!!! I acquired the bus in 2020 and have since done a complete front to back, top to bottom mechanical refurbishment including a replacement 1,776cc flat-four installed along with a rebuilt four-speed manual transaxle. The interior was reupholstered in gray cloth, the steering and brakes have been rebuilt, and the weatherstripping has been replaced. Equipment includes front lap belts, a cupholder, an under-dash air conditioner, rear bench seats, 15″ wheels, and front disc brakes. This VW Bus is now offered with an Arkansas title in the seller’s name. The passenger-side dogleg section was replaced and the paintwork in that area was blended. The engine lid has also been refinished, and the window seals have been replaced. The front area of the floor was also replaced at this time due to rust, and existing rust is noted under the cargo doors on the passenger side. A two-spoke steering wheel with the Wolfsburg crest sits ahead of a VDO 80-mph speedometer and a replacement VDO fuel gauge. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 3k miles, which is the mileage since its refurbishment. A Vintage Speed shifter has been installed, and the shift linkage has been replaced. The high/low beam switch on the aftermarket turn-signal box does not operate properly. The complete interior has been reupholstered with TMI Automotive Products materials and sound insulation has been added to the cabin. There is minor rust in the bottom of the rear door. A replacement 1,776cc flat-four was installed by Sam at The Bus Barn Ltd. of Benton, Arkansas and is topped with a single carburetor. The fuel-sending unit has been replaced.
