1974 Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi 23-Window Samba Conversion

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Volkswagen introduced the Type 2 model in 1950 to answer the need for a spacious and versatile vehicle. Derived from the Type 1 Beetle, the Type 2 Transporter, or “Kombi,” was built in a myriad of body styles ranging from the utilitarian panel van, devoid of rear seating and side windows, to the more refined Deluxe in 21- or 23-window form (known in some countries as the “Samba”), boasting eight passenger comfort and a stylish two-tone paint scheme.

By the time Type 2 T1 production ended in Germany in 1967, nearly two million units had been sold worldwide. But the iconic style of the original T1 extended far beyond its European production run, with manufacturing continuing in Brazil until 1975.

The example presented here is a Brazilian-built 1974 Type 2 T1, which has been subjected to a comprehensive restoration and Samba conversion by Old School Metal Cars. Air conditioning ensures a comfortable environment, while modern camping and entertainment features include a mini fridge, a small sink and faucet with running water, a two-burner electric stove, and a pop-up bed that effortlessly converts the interior into a cozy sleeping space. A cleverly concealed 32-inch pop-up TV adds a touch of luxury when it's time to unwind.
