A symbol of peace and love, the Volkswagen Transporter, or Type 2 series is well-known worldwide. These versatile vans or microbuses feature many commonalities with the VW Beetle, including its friendly, purring air-cooled engine. What we've got here is a 1977 Volkswagen Transporter II in fantastic condition after quite a bit of restoration that was done during 2020 and 2021.

The Volkswagen Kombi, Type 2 or Bus as it’s informally known, is one of the German automaker’s most iconic vehicles. Despite gaining significant traction in the 1960s with the hippie movement, the Type 2 actually debuted in 1950. These vehicles shared a lot with the Beetle, including the iconic air-cooled flat-four engine. Today, they continue to enjoy a loyal following, even from those who weren’t born in the Fifties, Sixties, Seventies or even Eighties. This 1975 Volkswagen Kombi Pickup Transporter is a fine example that’s reported to have undergone a restoration, and has racked up just 2,000 miles since then. It’s also a 2-door pickup, which is rarer nowadays than the more common minibus variant.

With just 1,100 examples produced and just a mere 36,800 miles on its clock, this low mileage limited edition German classic has all the charm a Volkswagen Beetle brings to your life and then some more.
One of the most widely sold cars in the world, over 21 million Volkswagen Beetles rolled of production facilities in Germany and other countries over the car’s exceptionally long lifecycle. In fact, the Beetle was introduced in 1938 and finally bid adieu to the world in 2003. This lovable, bug-shaped economy car has been responsible for shaping countless family lifestyles, acting as reliable and dependable transportation across the globe. It’s not uncommon to hear of life-saving stories that feature a Beetle in them. That’s why we’re proud to offer this 62,497-mile 1972 Volkswagen Beetle from Warwick, New York, for sale to one lucky new owner.

The Volkswagen Type 2 was Volkswagen’s second mass production vehicle, after the popular Beetle. Introduced for 1950, the Type 2 came in panel van, minibus and pickup truck variants. Soon, it became immensely popular in its own right, most notably as a symbol of the Sixties. Subsequently, the name changed to Transporter, and it’s a name that we see to this day. However, few today will make the connection between the two. For many, the Volkswagen Type 2, Microbus, Kombi or bus is its own vehicle, and a fine classic too. Here, we’ve got a 1965 Volkswagen Bus of the 21-window variety, for sale in Elk Grove California after undergoing a full rotisserie restoration. That makes it an excellent turn-key classic that you can drive straight away.

Chevy’s C/K Series debuted in 1960 and is widely regarded as one of the most influential in pickup truck circles. The entry-level was the C10/K10 variant, which denoted a half-ton truck. If you’re wondering why there are C-trucks and K-trucks, let us enlighten you. C trucks are rear-wheel drive, while K trucks have four-wheel drive. This is the key difference between the two. So, today’s 1984 Chevrolet K10 is a four-wheel drive variant from the third generation of Chevy C/K series trucks, and a half-ton truck at that. However, this North Carolina-based machine is much more than that, having received some refreshments and upgrades. Read on to discover more, and you might find plenty of reasons to sign on the dotted line and take this truck home.
Ford’s popular F-Series that is available today and in the fourteenth generation, was born in 1948. It was aimed at mobilizing American small businessholders, farmers and those engaged in trade. For the first generation, the range started with the F-1 which was a half-ton pickup truck. It had a 6.5-foot cargo bed, and sat at just 189 inches long; shorter than many full-size luxury cars of today. Over time, the F-1 has become a cherished classic and a symbol of American freedom – because it allowed you to take your family to market, with your goods for sale in the truck bed. This particular 1950 Ford F-1 Custom Build is a little different, as it’s a restomod with a host of upgrades. Residing in California and having just 13,367 miles since its rebuild, this truck is ideal for someone who wants classic style tastefully combined with modern features and performance.
