Volkswagen Type 2
T1 - Type 2 T1 (1950-1967)
£26,000
The original VW van that became an icon of 1960s counterculture. Split windscreen design distinguishes T1 from later models. Air-cooled flat-four from Beetle mounted in rear. Surprisingly capable with simple mechanicals. Early splits most valuable, especially 23-window Deluxe.
Rust in sills, floor sections, and around windows. Engine cooling critical in vans. Reduction box issues on early models. Fuel system corrosion. Cab door hinges wear and crack. Difficult to source correct glass. Seals perish allowing water ingress.
Samba specification (extremely valuable). Split windscreen. Original paint. 1500cc engine conversion. Safari windows. Westfalia camping interior. Matching numbers. Period accessories and camping equipment.
