For sale is a 1972 Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi Bus located in our Indianapolis Showroom. The concept of the VW Type 2 bus was credited to a Dutch VW importer Ben Pon back in 1947. The inspiration came from rather strange looking motorized trolleys used to transport parts around the factory that were made from stripped down Beetle chassis and running gear. His sketch design of a beetle-based van was taken into production a few years later with Volkswagen officially launching the Type 2 Van at the Geneva Motor Show in November 1949. Over the next four decades, the basic design remained the same with around five million buses being produced over that time. As the design was so uncomplicated, VW was able to turn out 90 different body combinations over the first five years of production. These variations included buses, pick-ups, fire engines, ambulances, beer wagons, refrigerated ice-cream vans, milk floats, mobile butchers’ shops, bread vans, mobile grocers, delivery vans and the well known and loved camper.
This 1972 Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi Bus is powered by its 1700cc 4 cylinder dual carburetor engine and is backed by a 4-speed manual transmission. This nicely restored VW camper is a great multi-purpose classic that you can enjoy taking to a car show, cruising around town, or take on a camping trip. The options on this 1972 Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi Bus for sale include: AM/FM Radio with CD Player, Pop up Camper Top, Hub Caps, Seat Belts, Cloth & Vinyl Interior, and Radial Tires. The exterior has been repainted in a period correct Neptune Blue paint with a White camper top and bumpers and is outfitted nicely with a tan colored cloth and vinyl interior. Inside you have everything you will need on a camping trip including a working sink and refrigerator, along with a hook up for power, a fold out table, popup camper top that sleeps two, and a sleeping area below that sleeps another two people. Some recent work completed on this VW Bus includes: New Exhaust System, New Fuel Lines, New Ignition Wire Set, New Battery, and Dual Weber Carburetors Rebuilt. This VW also comes with the original owner's manual and a stack of receipts from the restoration and maintenance.
