Volkswagen T1 split-screen van 1968, imported from Brazil for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2) based on 80 votes
The van has been imported from Brazil in late May, is fully customs and NOVA cleared, therefore ready to get registered as a historic vehicle in the UK (MOT and tax exempt) - if necessary we can do it at some additional cost.

For age the vehicle is quite well preserved, with some surface rust, but nothing major that would need a replacement. A little bit welding is needed underneath but no at the points of importance (one floor half-support). Other than that it seems the bodywork needs just a good prep and a new paint.

According to the original owner the engine was recently fully overhauled, which seems to be true - it worked without any problem with plenty of power back in Brazil - the van was driven for about 200 km from the town of Sumare (north of SP state) to the port of Santos and then used locally for some time. Unfortunately upon arrival to the UK she didn't want to start what can be caused by a fuel supply or an electrical fault. The carburetor was dismantled and thoroughly cleaned with new gaskets so it should help. If not, the coil and the ignition device will be checked so hopefully soon she will start again. There is a problem with brake pedal that is not getting back to the upper position - this will be looked at too.

Most of the photos were taken in Brazil just before the departure but there were no major changes since then. More picture possible on email.

The van can be viewed in person in Grays, Essex.

This offer is directed mostly to the workshops or companies which restore such vehicles and convert them to campers. We will gladly start regular cooperation with such a company. We can guarantee a regular supply at reasonable prices.

The advertised price includes 20% of the UK VAT i.e. £9600 + VAT.
