It will sell & someone will fix, I had one of those in the 80's, traded it for a vw convertible because what's a bus going to be worth in the future.... The vert has held steady at $3500, bus would be a $35k one at least. I can't even afford a regular bus, sometimes you can get a cool top cut off & marry it to a reg bus... that's what I would do... Corvair engine & disk brakes tho....

If that had the double side doors it would be at 30k.

$11200 now, one day left. Here's where it will get interesting. 54 bids?!! Holy hell...for what?! What do these sell for not rusted to bits? 23 window about the same as a 356 preA. http://jalopnik.com/5815611/this-is-what-a...-bus-looks-like https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=2045303 https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=1970772 21 window buses are a bit cheaper. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=2031224 https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=1974572 sometimes you can get a cool top cut off & marry it to a reg bus... that's what I would do... You can buy a repro 21/23 window roof kit for $5000. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=1476437 |

That's a rough one for sure, but given the value of the rare 23-window bus, what are the going rates? Can you find a better one for less than $10k?

Kindig It Design grafted a 21 window top onto a regular bus base. Restored and customized, it went for over $200k recently at a BarretJackson auction. VW buses, old ones, in any kind of condition have some legs.
It was a very cool and nice bus if that's any consolation..... |
