Vehicle description
1974 Volkswagen Transporter. Yes, yes I know, "it"s a Brazilian bus", but wait, let me explain, when I received the bus I started scratch. Started with a rust free frame. Pulled the old engine out sold it and had a new 1600cc built for me. Sent out the transmission for rebuild, and had 3.44 gears installed because this bus has big nut gear boxes that"s been rebuilt with new seals and bearing. With the 3.44 gears in the trans I can cruze at 60mph at only 3k rpm. Installed disc brakes up front with new flex lines with a duel 8" vacuum booster duel master cylinder feeding proportional valve that also feeds new rear drum brakes with all new parts new drums and flex lines. She will stop on a dime. The trans is shifted with a short throw lock out reverse shifter. All new wiring with a fuse panel under the dash and easy to get to. Interior floor is insulated and has a rubber mat with Bamboo flooring on top. The upholstery is white and tan and was done in Brazil and is done very will. The front has Safari windows and 4 side windows that open. All new door bushings are installed to stop how the doors saged. An auto fire extinguisher is installed above the engine, you can be see it in photo, you know, just in case. Some stuff is not shown in the picture, like jail bars, GPS/MPH gauge, tach and backup camera. I have all documents for all the work that was done. All tires are in excellent condition like new. Now for the con.
The body work is not the best, it does have areas that could have been a lot better. It does have filler as far as I can see. The speedometer works but 14" rims were installed in place of the 15" that were on the bus and that changed to read of the speedometer. Side doors close nicely but still need adjustment. So with all this it doesn"t effect the performance, drive it anywhere, I have around 1200 miles on it so far and not one probleem.
