Old Indian motorcycle dealership parts delivery van shop truck

1958 Volkswagen  bus type II  panel
It is currently registered and insured


Coolest cruiser ever!!

Perfect for cruise nights. ar shows. swap meets. or use for advertising or for your shop  parts runner. there is plenty of room on the front doors to paint your name. or shop name

Perfect patina. will only get better as time goes on
This bus was painted as a tribute car. meaning I made it look like an old parts delivery van. it was in primer before. then I painted it flat brown. I gave it a 4 step process  all hand done to rub thru. then hand lettered the logos. and again hand rubbed thru. I can add your name to it if you want. I was going to paint some more on the nose. and maybe the rear. ut I quit for now

The body:
There are signs of previous body work. body filler. and some rust repair on the front floors. they have patch panels welded on. the side rocker under the cargo doors had rust. but a replacement panel was put on . right now the patina is the look everyone wants. other than that it looks pretty good. you can see everything from the inside.  Custom Brizz ribbed aluminum bumpers.

The engine:
The engine is a 2332cc with 140 cam. doghouse oil cooler. ual 48 weber IDF's. full flow. with external oil cooler and filter



The transmission:
The trans is a 1968 swing axle type 1.
built trans with super diff. And close ratio 2nd. 3rd and 4th gears with disc brakes

The Wheels:
New BRM wheels with 145/15 Tires up front and 600/15 cheater slicks in the rear
 

The electrical:
The headlights and tail lights and brake lights work. the turn signals and wipers do not

The interior:
The interior is bare bones. the seat has some 90's velour on it. but I covered it with a New Mexican blanket. the back was all painted satin black. and the cab was left original dove blue. but you can make it what ever you want. add some seats. add some shag. or  you can do what I was going to do . add a work bench and decorate it with old tools and old motorcycle parts



Here is the good :
It's fast. it's cool. gets lots of attention and pictures taken. it sits low. and you don't have to wash or wax it

Here is the not so good :
The steering is a little sloppy. it's loud inside. it rattles and squeaks. the rear tire will rub when turning right. the speedo works but is unhooked. the front wheel bearing dust caps are off so the wheel center caps will fit. there is no gas gauge so with the speedo unhooked you gotta fill up every three days to be safe or carry a gas can. the rear engine lid is missing its latch and the license plate light. but I do have the engine tin and rear apron but they are not on. it could use a better exhaust system

So ask your wife. momma. parents. or who ever controls your check book

Come take a look. let go for a ride. it looks way better in person
