Nice Brazilian Volkswagen T1 Samba van from 1975, completely new Camper version with 23 windows, a beautiful blue / white colour scheme, a new sunroof and a completely new interior.

This original VW T1 from Brazil was refurbished (not restored) last winter and converted into a beautiful Camper. It is not an original Samba but a beautiful replica. The two-tone colour combination of Blue with a Lotus White roof looks beautiful, but the paintwork has some signs of wear. The chassis, axles and doors are in reasonably good condition. The bottom has already been worked on in a few places.

It has a completely new camper interior. It has all you could wish for in a T1 van, including everything you need for a night’s sleep. A fridge, sink (incl. water collection), fold-out table, dining table in the van itself, smart storage compartments under the benches, storage compartments in the roof, and of course the seats. The backrest can be laid flat using the well-known "rock 'n roll" system creating a complete bed. The seats and benches have completely new upholstery in vintage style, and still in plastic. The door cards, matching curtains and headliner were made in a matching style. New, original chrome-plated Volkswagen logo on the front and original VW rims with chrome hubcaps. The curtains, whitewall tyres and double roof rack complete this T1 Samba camper van.

This T1 has the well-known air-cooled 1500 cc engine with 4 cylinders. The engine runs fine and the transmission shifts properly. A technical service is definitely recommended after the long journey from Brazil to Europe, just to make sure everything is tuned properly.

The van still has a Brazilian registration certificate for registration in Europe. The original papers and customs documents are of course included. Some country-specific work may be required depending on your country, or final adjustments to meet European requirements and your own quality standards. Points of attention: ignition key does not fit on the doors (original door key not available), the fuel gauge probably does not work, some doors hang slightly resulting in some visible gaps, the horn does not work.

This is a private sale and the van is sold "as is"; warranty therefore does not apply.
