The Bus:

Let's start with the body, how amazing is this 1959 Split Screen?

Finished in VW Anthracite Grey the body is dropped by 3 1/2 inch over the chassis with additional wheel tubs for those amazing custom built Iozzio 17" Fuchs style wheels. 

The suspension is a combination of Hydraulic and Air allowing the full "body drop" to the floor but then being able to raise it to drive. The engine is a Type 2 Detectives built 2007cc giving more than ample power and torque mated to an IRS rear end with Porsche 944 discs and calipers up front and VW drums on the rear. 

The interior is finished in American Walnut with red leather. It is a bespoke bit of art and compliments the Anthracite beautifully. Polished Aluminium Safari Pop out windscreens with pop out "long spoon" window catches along with the chromed ribbed bumpers make this an incredibly striking bus.

This is a full on bespoke built Split screen with some unique modifications. An incredible bus.
