Its mine!

1600 aircooled, starts first time everytime. Known as Fudge for obvious reasons:



1982 Danbury 4 berth poptop conversion. Just had new sills, lower panels, sliding door runner and attention to MOT areas.

Body is generally good but it needs a respray. Door bottom and tailgate ropy so it would come with a door and tailgate.

Interior is dated, but all complete with original 2 ring stove, sink and electrics/hookup and 12v/240v/gas 3 way BOB fridge/cooler.









Poptop is 95% watertight with one small tear (easily fixed) but needs new gas rams (£50) and attention to a sticking hinge. Beds are both big and very very comfortable.

Basically it needs minor (now very minor) MOT work and cosmetics inside and out. Service it, freshen up the interior and treat it to a paintjob and you will have a 5k van by Vanfest.

Looking to sell it (and 2 bugs, Jetta) so I can concentrate on the Beetle/Syncro(s).

Will make someone a nice camper and £1750 is a steal with prices going up as they are. Just got my sister a Devon in virtually the same trim that needs sills and other welding and paid £2250 for it so I know its worth the £££.
