Description

Offered for sale is this stunning 1974 Volkswagen Type 1 Bus, meticulously restored as a 23-Window Samba replica with an exhaustive rotisserie restoration performed on a Brazilian-built example. Finished in an eye-catching two-tone Volkswagen Green and Lotus White, this Samba tribute perfectly blends vintage charm with modern creature comforts, creating one of the most eye-catching and functional VW Buses you’re likely to find. Under the rear hatch sits a 1500cc air-cooled flat 4-cylinder engine paired to a SP2 4-speed manual transmission equipped with 8x31 gearing. The drivetrain runs smoothly and delivers classic VW simplicity and reliability. This bus also features a completely rebuilt brake system, new wheels and hubcaps, and fresh tires to make sure it drives as beautifully as it looks. Inside, the cabin is a thoughtful blend of nostalgia and livability. Air conditioning keeps things comfortable, while modern camping and entertainment upgrades include a mini fridge, running water from a small faucet, a 2-burner electric stove, and a pop-up bed that easily transforms the interior into a cozy sleeper. There’s even a 32-inch pop-up TV cleverly stowed when not in use—making this bus equally suited to the road trip of a lifetime or an impromptu beachside movie night. Other recent upgrades include a new steering wheel and speedometer, all installed to preserve the classic look while offering improved reliability and function. A full-length sliding sunroof bathes the cabin in natural light and enhances the iconic 23-window look. Whether you’re a VW enthusiast, a collector of unique and well-executed customs, or simply looking for a rolling piece of art that doubles as a mobile retreat, this 1974 Volkswagen Samba replica is as turnkey as they come. Ready to drive, ready to show, and ready to enjoy. Contact us today at 352-307-1968 to learn more or schedule your personal showing!
