Lot details

MOT: None

  • Imported from Indonesia and NOVA declared
  • A stalled restoration project with much of the structural work done (new wheelarches and front / side panels)

  • Dating Certificate, Indonesian logbook, marque specialist bill

The T2 version of the Type 2 Volkswagen van was launched in 1968 to replace the shorter ‘Split-window’ T1 version. Visual changes to the T2 included the large, single-piece windscreen giving the ‘bay-window’ nickname.

Built to right-hand drive specification, chassis 2042101132 spent most of its life in Indonesia. Acquired by the vendor with the intention of transforming it into a Camper Van, the T2 was the subject of much hard work before ill health stalled matters. Structural repairs are estimated to have cost £4,000 and encompassed the chassis / floorpan, all four wheelarches and replacement front / side panels. The engine and gearbox were deemed sound and the Volkswagen was last running during 2021. The brake system has been renovated, and the clutch and fuel tank replaced. The cabin was stripped and partially floored with cupboards being fabricated behind the front seats. A stainless-steel sink, Camping Chef hob and rock ‘n’ roll folding bedframe were sourced but have yet to be installed. The front seats look as if they would respond to a thorough cleaning and the odometer shows an unwarranted 96,185km (59,800 miles). A worthwhile project, this tempting T2 comes with a NOVA reference number, old Indonesian logbook and sundry paperwork including a Dating Certificate and bill from Chris Gilley Beetles of Stockport.
