Day 11 - Spotlight on our 1955 factory right hand drive Volkswagen Type 2 (T1) split screen 23 window De Luxe Microbus, otherwise known as a Samba or Kombi.
The “Zertifikat” on file from Stiftung Automuseum Volkswagen dated 1st September 2011 confirms this is a factory right hand drive model 244 VW De Luxe Microbus. It was built on 11th March 1955 and left the factory on 18th March 1955. It was delivered to Volkswagen dealer Kemsley in London, UK. The certificate also tells us it was delivered with the following options: sealed-beam headlamps (M011), towing hooks front and rear (M029), Westfalia camping equipment (M108) and “Safari” windscreens (M113).
In recent years these Volkswagen Type 2 (T1) split screen 23 window De Luxe Microbus’ (otherwise known as Sambas or Kombis) have become highly collectable. These early cars are extremely rare and the ones to have, particularly in right hand drive.
This particular example ticks a lot of boxes and can be used and enjoyed as is or taken to the next level by rectifying the paint issues.
This Kombi would be a perfect beach house car and would turn plenty of heads at any cars and coffee!
The Volkswagen club scene is very active in Australia and this Kombi would definitely be a welcome sight at any of their events
Highlights:
- Factory right hand drive early 23 window Microbus
- Original colour combination
- Sympathetically upgraded
- Ready to use and enjoy or take it up to the next level.
