So I take the guy has figured a way to get these here from the Middle East? Fog lights were pretty common. Same with FF rear axles. All beige which other than white about the only color you see there but even the white was rare compared to beige. Too bad he couldn't didn't get that nice soft top troopy that was for sale in UT years ago. The buyer had it sent to Vulture Mine where he ripped the buyer off when then had it sent back east where it was modified from stock. I'm still kicking myself for not buying that one.

Looks like a 68 or early 69.
As soon as I saw the bezel in the first picture I knew it had a V8 conversion. Exhaust in the second picture confirmed it. When your having over heating problems opening up the bib for more air flow could help.

OK, so theyre not Toyotas but classic nonetheless. I havent seen too many 4 door VW bus pickups. The interior was amazing as well.The Karman Ghia was immaculate as well.
Not usually much of a VW fan but I can and do appreciate the amount of love and effort put into these vehicles!
i believe the bottom one is known as a kamback or some such.

2 of the nicest 40's rust-wise (virtually none!)
So what is the bubble on the roof of the white one? John

Yeah, goofy isnt it?
The PO wired in his CB antenna to the bubble which must contain an antenna.
The new owner picked it up from NM and is going to clear off all the roof items, fill and repaint the top. He is also going back to OE wheels and hubcaps and skinny 33" BFG white letters. Change out the old lift and homemade shackles with the soft ride 2" ultimate OME lift kit from Kurt at Crusier outfitters. Prior to that, were going to help him get it back in shape mechanically too.
Good to see new owners taking the older classics and getting them refreshed for a new lease on life!
