wtb microbus (sydney)
Hello,
Having driven beetles for years and I have finally decided to get a bus!
Budget: 12K but happy to spend a bit more for the right bus.
Looking to get a manual microbus which is registered. Prefer original paint or an older paint job. 1971 bus would be ideal but happy to buy
others.
Looking for as little rust as possible. Must be registered as an 8 seater.
Happy to travel a little out of Sydney (100km-ish) for the right bus. Looking to buy in the next 10 days or so.
Thanks,
Av

Finding one without RUST will cost you more than 12K

Hey Av
Good luck with the search, I just managed to get a 72 Lowlight for 12K for the wife and kids ( needs a new interior and does have some rust) but took
6 months of chasing down leads, knocking on doors and mates looking from Sydney to Victoria in paddocks and sheds for cars.
AS vw54 suggested, probably unlikely to find one without rust for your budget.
