I am the second owner of this Microbus and I have known this vehicle since the day it was bought new by a friend of mine. It is a 1984 model fitted with a 3 litre fuel injected Ford Essex V6 motor producing around 125kw. This Microbus is powerful and easily keeps up with any traffic, uphills are a breeze, and it would easily tow a caravan or boat.
The bodywork and paint is original and in excellent condition. The vehicle has never been in any accidents and is absolutely rust free and has been garaged it's whole life. The interior is immaculate, the seats and carpets having been covered since new. The front windows have an aftermarket electrically operated system installed. It is fitted with 16 inch Mercedes CLK alloys and new tyres. The main brake and clutch master cylinder, as well as the clutch slave cylinder at the gearbox were replaced about 1500kms ago. The Bosch Motorsport electric fuel injection pump was replaced around the same time.
The bus is fitted with power steering, remote central locking, nudge bar and tow bar.
The 4 speed manual gearbox was recently overhauled by Leon's Motors in Coopers Plains. A new alternator has been fitted as well as new spark plugs and leads. It is in perfect running order.
The bus is 8 seat complianced and will be sold with a QLD Safety Certificate.
This Microbus is, literally, the best bus around and I will be very sorry to let it go. I am only selling as we have downsized and I have nowhere to keep it garaged. This is an opportunity for someone to acquire the cleanest VW T3 bus in Australia with the power to go anywhere.
