A unique variant of one of the best known cultural icons of the 60's and 70's
Joining the lineup in 1952, the Transporter pickup was first available as single cab flatbed and later as a double cab for the 1959 model year
It shared its mechanical underpinnings with the VW Beetle, equipped with a rear-mounted and air-cooled flat-four producing 65 horsepower
This Type 2 has been expertly restored circa 2017, and more recently received a freshly rebuilt engine mated to a four-speed manual transmission, complete with welcome upgrades in the form of a Pertonix ignition and a stainless steel exhaust
Only 500 miles covered subsequent to the restoration, and just 5 miles traveled since receiving a rebuilt engine
White bumpers and VW badge, 15-inch steel wheels nicely accentuate the classic Volkswagen shade of Ruby Red
Hinged panels on all three sides of the truck bed aid in loading cargo while also allowing it to function as a flatbed if needed
This charming package is completed by a refinished wood bed and a reupholstered grey cloth bench seat
