even so, for that money you can't loose, if it is too much you can stick it on eBay and get way more back for it.

never seen windows in the lower part, crying out to be painted yellow...

[retrotoe]

[johnthesparky]

Just hide it in the back of the wardrobe and pretend it's been there ages..... that's what my wife does with shoes and handbags
(I don't do anything like that with bikes and car parts, for the record!)

Good luck!

here last camper had was to small,but was pocket rocket.

Well it's certainly got patina!

I was thinking you were completely barking until I got to the photo of the engine bay. Done right that will be a beauty.

(Still think you're a bit barking though. Noisy, slow, thirsty, unreliable, uncomfortable, handles like a shopping trolley with 4 wonky wheels. But then again......)

That's cheap even as a parts car it's cheap
Don't think you're ever loose money on it
Like the improvised VW badge on the front
I've got an early bay (I'm currently working on)

[retrotoe]

honestly think were rotted were it sweated under a tauplion,bet left it to element be as bad last on road 2011 also had new beam on front,try hardest save it,roof still good which is good,got lot wrong with it,but bones there

[guz]

Paid similar £ for mine years ago, I'll get it finished one day :/

[markm3]

Hmmm. Without giving your location away I think we live in the same town. Think I recognise the selendia in your sig.
Look foreward to seeing the van done

[Mercdan68]

That must be a good buy at that price?

[kevins]

At least it doesn't appear to be full of filler like many of them, a new front panel would fix many of the issues in one go, the rear pillars look like they have sweated from the inside out, what the structure is like inside will be interesting.

[düdo]

Looks good to me. Sun visor! It's certainly original. Motor looks tidy. Can't go wrong with those prices.

Interior pics?

[dubbelduwwel]

In terms of work required, you are a brave man...
Rare with all interesting detail!
Empi engines must be super rare nowadays and must have been a luxurious transplant somewhere in its life!
(Hope you do not hear the jealousy in my voice!)
