1965 VW Split Screen Camper Van. Factory Right Hand Drive. For Sale
From the moment you poke your head into the rear of this bus, your senses will tingle, as you are time warped back to 1965, to an era when life had a far simpler tone. The smell of the woodwork is superb and the wonderful fragrance inside of the bus is what gives off immediate 1960’s nostalgia. The headliner is completely original in factory perforated off white vinyl showing beautiful patina commensurate with its 54 years of service. The look and feel of a factory installed item that has survived in this condition for this length of time simply cannot be replicated and is a truly stunning feature, which would be sacrilege to replace.
The shell of the bus has been subject to quality restoration work that has been completed to a very high standard and most importantly of all, has been done sympathetically to ensure the original features of the bus have not been damaged in any way throughout the process. This is absolutely essential especially with regards to the interior, which forms the true soul of the vehicle and much care has been taken to ensure that this has been fully protected whilst restoration work has taken place. There is photographic evidence to show off all of the usual and expected areas that have been replaced with top quality panels including the front inner & outer valance, sills, rear lower arches, lower cargo door sections, cab floor etc. Anything that required repair has been replaced and then the bus has been carefully primed and fully resprayed in its year correct original colours, Velvet Green and Pearl White. The bodywork on this bus is absolutely superb showing all of the hallmark signs of a well cared for and cherished classic motor.
The mechanical setup on the bus has been reconditioned to preserve as much originality as possible with a few expensive and uprated items to help with modern roads such as a CSP vented front disc brake conversion kit for optimum braking performance.
The original Devon interior is in our opinion one of the best preserved original interiors in existence. The rare and original items that can fetch large amounts if sold off separately are still intact. This includes the original Dudley cooker which is a double gas burner hidden discreetly in a side cupboard that has a folding / lifting metal shroud and a cooling shelf above (One of the best features and incredibly sought after). The original cooler box and shaving mirror are present as well as the sought after Whale pump. The interior cushions have been tastefully reupholstered in 1960s style fabric and both original tables are present and complete with all of their original screw in table legs so that they can be used inside or outside of the bus. The larger table is stowed below the rear overhead cabinet and also acts as a platform between the opposite facing seats that allows the cushions to fold down into a conveniently sized double bed. This interior is simply stunning in every possible way, even the original Devon interior light works and the original Devon badge is intact.
