Great looking vans those splits, can imagine they would frustrate the hell out of me to drive lol

Yep splits can be an acquired taste but I've had it for 20 years I'm not changing now

I sold mine 4 years ago and regretted it ever since

Dont get me wrong it looks stunning, pretty much as perfect as perfect can be.

Its more in relation to a lck of the modern day comforts

You've got both ends of the VWT evolutionary tree there. Where it all began and where it is today. Nice vans. They'd both be a dream van for many a dub fan.

They are doing it but I think some of it like the roof is done by CamperKing. They are nice guys though

My parents had a 1962 model , and used to take us three kids on holidays many years ago in the late 60's early 70's , down to Italy ( 5 days driving ) , Spain , Portugal ,
,25 hp engine , top speed 45 mph and couldn't hold 4th gear with a head wind, my dad had a rope attached to the drivers seat that he used to loop over the gear stick to keep it in 4th as it kept slipping out of gear on the over run , great memories although any romantic notions we had of these vans are long gone after those experiences ;-)

A lovely pair!
Splits are a bit of a PITA to run/drive/try to camp in but that will be one valuable machine! Looks mint.

Hope you enjoy both!
