This 1966 Volkswagen Camper Type 2 is resplendent in green and white, with bodywork and paintwork both described as being in ‘good’ condition. The fact it is an import from the sunshine state of California has helped this 1600cc flat-four model remain in such impressive condition, particularly as it is an original and collectable T1 split-screen model. Inside, the left-hand drive interior is finished in green chequer, with camper features including tie-back curtains – and there’s even a surfboard in the back! It comes with a large amount of receipts, documentation and other historical material as part of what the vendor describes as ‘a large history file’. They add it has had a recent new engine and this, along with the transmission and electrics, are in ‘excellent’ condition.This 1966 Volkswagen Camper Type 2 is resplendent in green and white, with bodywork and paintwork both described as being in ‘good’ condition.

The Volkswagen Type 2 was introduced way back in 1950. It was an original forward control cargo and passenger van, which was carefully honed over the years – it remained in production until 1975. There were multiple commercial variants, plus the iconic camper models like this vehicle. An entire community has built up around the Volkswagen Type 2 and its related models, and the scene today is thriving – meaning buying one is a passport into a fun world of enthusiastic motoring.
