FOR SALE Champagne Edition II OG paint 1978 Late Bay Microbus

  1. I've owned this bus for nearly a year, I bought it in the original paint.
    I has come from the dry state of Oregon on the West Coast of USA.
    Because tree sap had ruined the paint on the roof I have had the top half painted in the original colour Agate Brown.
    The bus had hit a deer at some point so I had to replace the front panel this has been painted in the original Fox Red I also knocked the dent out of the engine lid and painted this in Fox Red.
    The engine runs fantastic, sounds nice & has plenty of power it is a fuel injected 2.0 L air cooled type 4 with hydraulic tappets it also has electronic ignition so apart from changing the oil, air filter and fuel filter its pretty much maintenance free.
    The engine oil is like new still golden and there are no leaks, it doesn't burn any oil.
    The breaks have been bled right through so they are now right for the next 3 years.
    It has a 12 month MOT with no advisories.
    In the next couple of weeks its going to the trimmers to have a new head lining fitted & the front seats re-trimmed.
    The bus has never been under-sealed or waxoiled, viewing is essential as you can see how rust free this vehicle is.
    Included in the price is the cost of under-sealing and waxoiling the bus, painting the rest of the bus & new stickers. I would rather the new buyer see it as it is and either let me do it or I'll knock money off and they can do it themselves.

    £12,000 ONO as a finished bus with everything done. Comes with 12 mths MOT & 12 mths TAX

  6. Registered or not?
    It's MOT'd
    TAX is £220 will cost me a grand to do the paint, £800 to do the interior and £100 or so for the wax treatment etc. Registering is about £70
    The hassle of doing it too so call it £11K for cash. :)
