VW Early Baywindow 1971 for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.25) based on 47 votes
1971 early baywindow South African import.

Eninge:

Stock 1600 longblock reconditioned 7 years ago with twin Webber 34 ICT (Spanish), cb manifolds, cb bellcrank throttle link, 123 ignition tune+ distributor, vintage speed exhaust. Covered 30k km since recon. All the mods were made with fuel economy in mind, hence if you are very careful it is possible to get 30mpg.

Chassis:

Lowered 1 spline at the back and an adjustable front beam. Over all the chassis is in ok condition, rust is beginning to take hold on the front passenger side by the door step and the front valance in general. It will need looking at in the near future. Most steering linkages and joints have been replaced over the last couple of years to keep the steering sharp (as possible).

Body:

The worst part is the sill under the sliding door which holed this year. The 2 front door are free from rust on the underside but previous repairs are now failing. Otherwise the body is in ok condition and I have tried to photograph it as well as I can.

Brakes:

Front callipers, disks, rear slaves and drums replaced 7 years ago and still good.

The interior was fitting last summer and has seen very little use so is in good condition.

It's just been on a 3 week tour of the south west with no issues and has never given me any mechanical problems. Even driving around Tuscan hills (cautiously) in the Italian summer heat.

As you can probably tell from all the parts fitted and work done over the years, I never intended to sell this van but due to the pandemic I don't really have a choice any choice.

Happy to answer any serious question people have, viewing welcome near Brighton. 12 pictures isn't really enough either, I have more and can take any you want.

Thanks for looking.
