The Bus:

At Type 2 Detectives we love a commercial Split screen panel van. There is something very cool about the iconic Volkswagen Split screen and endless opportunities for promotion of a business with a panel van.

This particular van has had lots of money spent on the running gear and mechanicals. Out have gone the front drums and single circuit brake system to be replaced with a set of CSP front discs and the safer dual circuit system. The suspension has also been modified to a slightly narrower front beam with uprated shocks. At the rear the reduction boxes have been removed (no more 55mph speed limiting gears) to be replaced with a full independent rear suspension (IRS) and fully rebuilt rear brakes.

It is the perfect set up for a Split screen and as such drives like dream.
