Long Description: DESCRIPTION HAS BEEN UPDATEDThis 1974 Volkswagen Samba Type 2 has undergone a 14-month professional rotisserie restoration by a well-known builder and has been upgraded to a 23-window. The execution is to a high level of craftsmanship with attention to detail throughout. Nothing has gone untouched, and no expense has been spared on this bus. It is finished in Marine Blue and Lotus White two-tone colors with a white top, over a white and blue interior. The bus features Safari front and rear windows, three sets of pop-out windows on each side, a full center retractable ragtop sunroof, double cargo side doors and seating for nine. Made of Brazilian wood, the front and rear roof racks and ladder provide additional storage and really add to that classic VW charm. It is powered by a rebuilt 1500cc flat-4 engine mated to a 4-speed manual transmission; the complete drivetrain has been rebuilt, including the transmission and transaxle. The engine compartment was color-matched, and a graduated crank pulley was installed along with adjustable tensioner and generator pulleys to complete the clean look. A brand-new carburetor was installed, along with an ignition coil, spark plugs and wires for reliable spark and fuel delivery. The suspension, steering and braking systems have also been rebuilt with brand-new parts throughout. The electrical system was also completely redone, from the wiring harness to the generator, voltage regulator and battery.
