Key Facts

Over $90,000 spent on restoring this 1966 Volkswagen Type 2 T1 Kombi Splitscreen, blending iconic style with modern reliability. Powered by a reconditioned 1.6-litre air-cooled flat-four with four-speed manual transmission, it underwent a full nut-and-bolt restoration from 2019. Now in Australia with one private owner, it shows just 600 miles since completion (true mileage unknown) and previously won a concours in 2019.

Equipment & Features

Finished in two-tone green and white with a beige vinyl interior, white dash, and dark grey carpets. Fitted with 15-inch steel wheels, Safari front windows, rear roof rack, nine-seat layout, sliding/push-out windows, and retro-style stereo. Comes with invoices exceeding $90k, restoration photo file, keys, car cover, and two trophies.

Condition

Full respray and interior retrim as part of restoration. June 2025 roadworthy passed cleanly.

Service History

Most recent service in December 2024 at 600 miles, including a full inspection and 100-point check. Restoration works included new roof lining, rubbers, suspension, brakes, tyres, seats, carpets, belts, stereo, and bare-metal respray with refurbished panels.

Summary

A concours-winning, nut-and-bolt restored T1 Splitscreen Kombi in timeless livery, showing just 600 post-restoration miles. With extensive documentation and show pedigree, it is an ideal choice for collectors and enthusiasts—ready for cruising, club events, or display.
