Sometimes,
a classic is so rough the seller only needs to say, “See pictures” to
eliminate any chance of misrepresentation about what he is selling. This
1965 21-Window VW Bus is here on eBay
with bidding at $6,600 and the reserve unmet. I can’t say I’m surprised
since these old air-cooled vans are following the trends of bathtub
Porsches into collector car territory regardless of condition. The
simple math on these vans says to count the number of windows and
increase the price accordingly; that said, I suspect this example with
its multiple day-lit openings will see an impressive final bid despite
needing a ton of work. Still, the original paint is a bonus, along with
the transmission it came with from the factory. The engine, like many
old Beetles and Buses, is long gone, but that will likely be the easier
part of the restoration considering the amount of corrosion in the
floors. Oh, and you’ll also need a complete interior while you’re at it!
So, what are your guesses as to where this one will end up dollar-wise?
