I looked  at a 1966 VW Bus driven out from California about 6 years ago. The 
owner was  given my number. I know nothing about VW Buses. He wants $4000  It 
has a  new paint job and is solid, but needs a lot of cosmetic work. The gas 
tank  isn't connected. I don't see the similarities between it and my FCs. It 
doen't  have much power and doesn't feel safe at 45 mph. It seems like a good 
price to  buy it. Any suggestions or advice?







Check out Ebay and look at the pricing. Maybe a cool one with a lot of  extra 
windows, a factory option. Yes, they are kind of like an FC. But they are  
very slow and, as you noted, horrible to drive. I had a 1968 - Quite a different 
 bus than he 67 and back. Even with the 110HP Corvair engine and PG I 
installed,  it was no race car, but miles ahead of the VW that had been installed. If 
you  walk away, you will still be moving faster than the bus!
