This one has been worth the wait...
This was an original Sopru campervan conversion. The certification plate is battered, but still in tact!
During the restoration we removed the kitchen (made of weetbix) which had fallen apart. On the plus side we had full access to the floor pan, so you can be safe knowing there is none of the usual rust that gathers under the sink. The back of this Kombi is yours to design and fitout with a bed/kitchen/disco/poker room/shop or fun palace!!
Repairs:
We have completely repaired any rust we could find - mainly behind the wheel arches, and the window sill behind the driver. The gas bottle vent has been replaced as well as the old water tank filler. We have resprayed the bottom half in one of our favourite VW colours - Flipper blue. All the rust and paintwork was completed by our panel beater/spray painter who has over 33 years professional experience. All work was completed under our personal supervision so we could ensure the job was completed to our satisfaction. The paintwork was completed in quality 2K Dupont and was completely cut and buffed before waxing to give it a final protection and shine.
Mechanics:
Mechanically, as with everything else, you will not be disappointed. Just two months ago we spent close to $2,500 on the engine which includes a fully tested long block motor with Twin Webber carburetors as well as a new EMPI GT exhaust. The engine is very strong and has extremely good compression. We have completed a full tune up so it fires up easily and idles beautifully with the deep rumble of a good 2 litre engine. Not only is the engine great, but the gearbox, steering and suspension all feel exceptionally tight and smooth making Moby an absolute pleasure to drive.
Good Bits:
He rides on a clean set of Porsche rims with a brand new set of Nanking tyres. Other new parts include window and door rubbers, tail light and blinker lenses, window scrapers, window winders, grab handles, door step rubbers and fittings. We have priced Moby at the higher end of the market as he is an exceptional Kombi and one that will in no way disappoint.
Upholstery:
The interior is just as good as the exterior. It has been completely reupholstered throughout. Interior panels finished in moulded vinyl, floor coverings in grey automotive carpet and a complete new rooflining. Up front you have bucket seats from a Honda which are extremely comfortable. The canvas on the poptop is only 12 months old and in perfect condition.
Bad Bits:
It has the original wiring - every button and switch works, but if you like throwing your money at this kind of thing, well that's all that is left to do. Maybe this Kombi isn't for you!
Comes with NSW registration till October and a NSW pink slip.
