Sadly I need to make some space so my splitty Betty needs to move on to pastures new. It is a Brazilian bus 1974 not yet registered in the uk. I did send all the paper work to the dvla and they sent it back because I did not send the correct cheque for road tax. It’s now tax exempt by the time the paper work came back from them the mot was about up so I decide to wait. It has a 1.9 tdi with a Audi flip box so 5 speed goes in all gears kit supplied by ultimate engineering (NOT YET RUNNING ) it needs the wiring sorting out full audi loom in the back with keys , I got it to the point of turning over two years ago. I drove the car home so I know its a good engine and box. Very easy to put back to vw power the flip box and engine set up is worth the cost of a vdub engine

It’s got new bay drive shafts and IRS fitted with all new back brakes & new front supplied.

4 to 5 stud adaptors on the rear to keep the 5 wide wheels

All doors are good and solid no filler & minimal rust including the barn doors

The rear back corners are solid

The flooring and rails are all good need minimal work all sills are good they have been replaced at some time in its life.

Comes with New A post for both sides need fitting

New 3 part B post for offside

Drivers side wheel arch panel new

4” lowered & narrowed front beam with sway ways fitted & drop spindles

Suzuki van steering rack fitted with so now rhd will need work only fitted to steer off drive.

Brand new race alloy radiator and twin fans

All glass including corners should you want to put them back in removed to weld up. (Because I wanted to)

full set of Pop out side windows they need new glass but frames are like new just need paint.

There is loads more but it’s been under cover two years so I cannot remember everything.It dose roll easy but my drive is gravel so a long winch would be best. I will not part the van out its all or nothing .Check out my other items I will be listing more car part’s.
