My friend Mike from Always Evolving Pythons bought this killer 21 window bus recently and is getting ready to go deep on an upgrade including designs by Sean Smith, interior by Gabes Custom Interiors and some potential mechanical upgrades. But this thing is already a badass with a turbo helping to make some good power and Porsche wheels for a cool look.
Sit back and enjoy this one...

Dude named Rolando built that bus, had Vic at The Lab build the engine. He then sold it to a doctor, (he was smiling all the way to the bank) then the doc must’ve sold it to this Mike guy. But it’s an iconic bus in the VW scene. I’ve been lucky enough to have a picture of my 58 ragtop bug next to that bus.
@AutotopiaLA
@AutotopiaLA 4 года назад
Unfortunately the engine has cheap Chinese cylinders and the trans was held together with wire ties so it’s undergoing about $15K in rebuild of engine and trans plus wiring issues. But it sure looks good and when it’s rebuilt by pros it’s gonna be a great bus

@flemcadiddlehopper 4 года назад
Okay, I know this bus, well not personally, but I've followed it since Motormavens did a write up on it. It's Rolando's. I liked it so much I researched the colours used and painted mine like it. Mine has a few next level bits in it that you might like to check out on my channel, like the one off VDM petri steering wheel made of bamboo and carbon fibre. And, in the works right now, a Westy roof rack with the support bows made of bamboo and the slats made of carbon fibre. A real old school meets new world shit. I'm excited to see the direction you take on this. Hope you don't mess with the VW purists too much or they'll rake you over the coals on theSamba.com.

I know he didn't pay half of what you think it's worth. Not much of a motor, turbo attached to the stock intake manifold. Those are not real Fuch's. The rear & middle seat are not correct. They are missing the seat bars and kick panels. If Mike works at Gabes I'm sure there's nothing for you to do on the interior (Lumpy tweet headliner) Don't do a feature if you don't know anything about it and your not going to show anything that's been done
