Overview of 1977 Volkswagen Transporter For Sale by Owner

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. With just zero miles since its rebirth, it's now seeking a new owner for many more adventures. Why don't you seize the moment and make it your avenue for relaxing, unwinding, and destressing?

Exterior and Interior

A lustrous red and white paint job means everyone will be captivated as you pass them by in this 1977 Volkswagen Transporter II, rolling on its little white steel wheels with chrome hubcaps. We observe a wood-decked roof rack atop the rear portion of the vehicle, adding to its already generous luggage capacity. The current owner reports that the exterior was fully redone in 2020 and 2021 to bring it to the condition that you see here. A chrome tailpipe peeks out from beneath the rear bumper, and we're told that the vehicle has received a new muffler as well. The interior is said to be refinished, which explains why it looks similarly pristine. You've got plush and comfortable original seats that could easily accommodate six or seven adults, a functional dashboard with the critical gauges directly ahead of the driver, and little else to distract. There's no surround sound system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, or power this-and-that. There's reported to be air conditioning, albeit non-functional at this moment. If you're wondering about the raised luggage bay at the rear of the cabin, that's because the engine lives under the trunk floor. Yes, Volkswagen did package everything well.

Engine

This 1977 Volkswagen Transporter II is powered by a 2.0-liter Type 4 'Pancake' engine that is a flat-four with air cooling. It was said to develop 70hp when new, and drives the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. We are told that the engine was redone at the same time as the exterior, but the transmission has never been rebuilt and there is a timing issue with the engine. Reliable and simple to work on, these Volkswagen air-cooled powertrains can't be beaten.
