1967 Volkswagen Bus

Gateway Classic Cars of Charlotte, North Carolina, is proud to list this peace-loving 1967 Volkswagen Bus. If the VW Bus (Type 2) is not the most important van of all time, it is undoubtedly the most iconic. As one of the most recognizable vehicles ever made, the VW Bus wasn't only a hit in post-war Germany. Its popularity quickly stretched across the Atlantic to the U.S., where it became a counterculture icon of the 1960s. Though it had its U.S. heyday in the 1960s, the van's history stretches before and after this period, with tons of enthusiasts and collectors worldwide. 1966 and 1967 were the golden years of the "Splitty," a nickname given to the early VW Buses because of their two-piece windshield design. Its air-cooled engine had grown to 1500cc and made 44 brake horsepower.

This VW Bus has had a ton of "the hard work" done. The larger 1900cc engine has just been rebuilt (just a few miles ago) and runs very strong. You'll appreciate the clean shifting four-speed Freeway Flyer transmission as you cruise along the highway at a more comfortable rpm and speeds. New kingpins, a new steering link, and new trailing arms keep this bus in between the lines, and new disc brakes up front bring you to a stop with ease. Super clean, green upholstery inside and a new bamboo headliner round off this timeless package. The main cabin is ready for your personal touch. Whether you want to install original style bench seats, a cool "Rock-n-Roll" style sleeper seat rear, or go full custom camper or merchandise van, this VW should draw a crowd and plenty of stories anywhere you take it. Call us now to get this bus home. You can get the surfboard and start making your memories!
