Vehicle description
About this vehicle This 1956 Volkswagen Stern Magazine Logo Bus Type 2 Split Window is an original. The owner has had it for 1 year. The vehicle needs work and is mainly used for car shows. Seller"s Notes Bus is sold as-is where is with a notarized bill of sale. No title Vehicle Details The day has come that I’ve decided I will be selling my September 1955 built Wolfsburg split window bus. This is a one of a kind logo bus with one of a kind journalism history. It wasn’t til after I purchased it that I realized what the logo on the side said. It reads “Stern Die Grosse Illustrierte” and has their star logo. Stern to this day is Europe’s largest news magazine. Also Stern magazine was owned and started by Henri Nannen who was a nazi propagandist in 1938 and a member of the SS. Pretty bizarre history. It has an early camper conversion in it that I believe was put in for the reporters of the magazine over in Germany so they had a hotel room on wheels, the curtains even have washing instructions in German print. There is also a hatch that was put in the roof. I think it was a hole for them to stand up out of the bus to take pictures and record footage. Seems like it spent its life in Germany up until 1970. There’s and old fiberglass repair in the drivers floor and I found a 1970 German pennig stuck to the floor (thing they did back then to give it good luck). I had big plans for this bus but by the time I get to it it could be another 20 years. I would like it to go to someone that will keep its history alive whether they fix the rust issues and get it driving as is or if they end up restoring it, I think it’s history being a Stern logo bus must be preservers. I found an interesting wooden “w” logo on an oval piece of wood inside the bus as seen in the pictures, not sure what it represents. Message me for more pictures and information. Thanks for looking!
