Greetings all!
Up for sale is my beautiful VW bus. named "Uncle Rico". Fantastic. near rust-free condition (yearly undercoating applied). Interior has been re-done. Engine still strong (just finished a 3000 mile round trip excursion to Colorado actually! Not a hiccup!)

Equipped with a 1. 00 dual Port engine that is mechanically sound. Also comes equipped with the smaller 30 pict carburetor on it. This helps this vehicle perform much better on gas. Pertronix Igniter II and an upgraded Pertronix coil as well for an electronic ignition. This is the last year for the 1. 00 dual Port engine and the first year for disc brakes. $200 Brand new alternatorSound absorbing material throughout. Has the upper sleeping hammock and the childs hammock as well. Installed auxiliary battery for appliances ($200 inverter included). Battery is 2 weeks old. $125New pop-top canvas.  $200 Custom fitted thermal window covers (for use in winter or summer). You can see these in the picture.  
Lots of things upgraded/added. Everything from powder-coated rims to a steering wheel cover to new wipers and antenna. I've even installed a wood burning stove for campouts! Comes with original sink unit too! I've added a stereo system (still under Best Buy warranty). just put on 4 new tires (about 2 months ago). And lots more (snow chains. luggage holder. buddy heater. wheel chocks. valve covers. etc etc etc). Have keys for every single lock. Also includes original back passenger seat. which can be interchanged with wood stove station behind drivers seat.  

Cosmetically Uncle Rico is in good shape. I've gotten many compliments. including from some local Vdubbers. I backed slowly into a dumpster a few months ago. so the rear bumper is slightly bent. But that's easily repaired/replaced. I've attached photos of it. Other than that. it's pretty great. Solid body (originally from California). Over the entire bus about 3 inches total of light surface rust (just needs sanding and repainting - a one afternoon project).  

I absolutely love my bus. but have to start paying tuition bills. So I must make this sacrifice. Serious offers will be entertained. Clean (Indiana) title in hand.  

Of course as with any 40+ year old vehicle. all sales are as-is and final. I know you will love your new bus. so please feel free to message me for any more information. I can take more pictures if you need. and I welcome you to come take a test drive at your convenience!
LOCAL PICKUP STRONGLY PREFERRED. Central Indiana (Kokomo/Indianapolis area). The best way to buy a VW is to see it yourself! Drive it. get to know the new member of your family!
I will consider allowing non-local purchase at my sole discretion. Buyer would need good eBay reviews. full payment would be necessary up-front. and payment would have to cleared through paypal before transportation is organized. Finally. transportation arrangements would be 100% the responsibility of the buyer. All local offers will receive preference.  

Thank you!
