  1. Hey late bay!


    Up for sale unfortunately is my 1979 vw bay window camper which has just recently had a 2.0litre 63k mile engine from a subaru put in and it is an animal now !


    Honestly I didn't expect it to be as crazy as it is the acceleration and torque is just so much fun and being a subaru it's reliable everyday!


    The only reason I'm selling it is I'm going off to do a uni course and won't need my car or flat so will have no where to store it


    The spec on the camper is very high it's easier to explain in person but here's a summery:


    RHD uk model type 2 converted van

    New pop roof fitted by previous owner

    2.0 litre subaru engine from a 63k full subaru history car (have proof)

    Alloy rad twin 12inch fans operated by a auto switch to come on at 93degrees

    Mocal oil cooler with fan wired to same as rad

    TSR Engine conversions adaptor plate

    Custom subaru - vw flywheel

    Up rated heavy duty clutch

    New clutch cable

    Shorted alloy sump for more oil capacity but more ground Clearance

    Equal length manifold / exhaust

    Induction kit

    Inline aps Motorsport 300hp fuel pump

    Has had 3 oil and filter changes in last 2 months since engine conversion

    Properly converted sugar wire loom so no loose wires or extra plugs


    Interior

    Subaru seats up front (can include originals not in best shape)

    Mountry steering wheel and boss kit

    Empi short shift

    Led bulbs in dash

    Water gauge (reads 40* higher than should)

    Wooden rock and roll bed less than 6 months old

    New high quality black carpet

    Good seat / bed foam could do with retirm

    Recently painted white throughout

    Led strip lights

    Extra cigarette lighter in rear for phones / tv / fridge in back high amp wiring

    Front cig lighter for sat nav phones what ever

    Electric front heater

    Twin charge battery set up with both battery's fitted ( trays could do with rewelding)

    New fuel gauge and sender and wiring

    Newly fitted wood panels covered with chequered


    Brakes

    New pads

    New disks

    New calipers

    New drums

    New shoes

    New wheel cylinders

    All brake pipes checked any poor pipes changed

    New front wheel bearings

    Around 3 weeks old not even bed in stops perfect!


    Suspension

    Lowered all round

    No knocks or bangs no play to parts

    Recent rear shocks


    Wheels

    American wheels 15's

    Rear center caps included not fitted in pics

    New rear tyres

    Good tred front tyres


    Bodywork

    Probably the only part that let's it down slightly

    The car was a rat car before I got it and started to work on it so there is panels welded onto what's believed to be good metal to add to the effect

    The top half is raw then laquored so won't rust but looks rusty underneath

    The bottom half is painted flat blue only recently and comes up great when washed and polished




    Overall the car is very capable of being a reliable daily and will go off the clock on the speedo which stops at 90mph!

    Which has MOT and currently taxed and used daily!

    My plans was to finish it off and add rest of the campervan insides and get the top half painted I didn't mind the ratty outside with flat paint adds character and really really surprises people on the road!

    Honestly come have a look don't even waste your time with aircooled it's slow and unrealizable and slow!!

    This is a solid base that's almost complete just needs a few touches or enjoy it as it is! I know I'll regret selling it but I'm gunna need to money and have no where to keep it!


    Send me a message for any questions if I remember more I will add on to here the spec is so much custom it's hard to remember!
