1966 VW T2 Split Screen Camper Van *

VW T2 Split Screen – 1966 – Californian Import – LHD – Tax Exempt. Being possibly the most iconic vehicle of all time this van is probably the pinnacle of all T2’s in terms of style and reliability. The van was originally supplied to California from new and has spent the majority of its life there in the warm climate until being recently imported in 2006 where It has been cared for by one meticulous family owner since. During its life in the UK extensive work has been done to bring the van up to a very high standard. The van is in very good condition throughout with a solid chassis and underside as well as a good body all round. The van is powered by a recent 1600cc Flat four engine (Standard VW engine same as original) which has proven to be very reliable and has plenty of pulling power to handle steep hills even with a party of 8 on board. The van has many expensive extras which all add to its beauty and persona. The front brakes have been converted from drums to discs, which makes a great difference with the vans overall safety and stopping power, Electronic ignition has been fitted with a 009 Distributor, which is a renowned setup on these for increased reliability and performance. No more worrying about points! Professionally lowered with all necessary suspension components replaced with high quality parts. Stainless steel exhaust system fitted by ‘Beetlelink’ of Farnham. The interior has been refitted with a simple but practical design. The table drops down to create a large double bed with a section that can be removed for even more legroom, if necessary. There are plenty of cupboards and pockets all over the van to store things away in. There is a single gas stove cooker mounted on the inside of one of the side doors which folds up at down at your leisure.
