For Sale: Volkswagen Splitscreen T1 Kombi (1959) – Iconic, Reliable, and with a beautiful Patina!
This 1959 Volkswagen Splitscreen Kombi is the perfect travel companion for adventurous souls who love a touch of nostalgia. The bus boasts a striking color scheme in the popular mango green and seagull grey, giving this Split Screen its unique appearance.
Technically in Excellent Condition
The previous owner has restored this bus to perfect technical condition, without compromising its originality. The result? A bus that drives like new, but with the character of a true vintage classic. The bodywork is mostly still in its original paint, maintaining the authentic look. The chassis and underbody have been professionally cleaned, repaired, and repainted in the original color, ensuring the bus not only looks top-notch technically but also remains structurally sound.
Slightly Lowered for Better Handling
The bus has been mildly lowered, which improves steering feel, reduces wind sensitivity, and enhances handling. This adjustment ensures that the bus doesn’t lean in corners, while still maintaining its classic appeal.
A Perfect Travel Companion with Sleeping Option
This Splitscreen is also ideal for trips to the beach or weekend getaways. The rear seat transforms into a bed, allowing you to sleep comfortably during your travels. The six sidewindows can all open, providing excellent ventilation on warm summer nights.
Original 15″ Wheels
The bus is still on its original 15″ wheels, which not only look stunning but are also far more beautiful than the 14″ wheels found on later models. These wheels contribute to the authentic look of this iconic Volkswagen.
Carefree Travel
With this Split Screen, you’re guaranteed a worry-free travel experience. The bus requires absolutely no work and is highly reliable. The beautiful patina gives the bus a charm that’s rarely seen. Can you already picture yourself on vacation? A day of surfing, a drink in front of the bus, and then a good night’s sleep in your bed. What could be better?
In short, this Volkswagen Splitscreen Kombi is the perfect blend of style, reliability, and originality. Whether you’re looking for a classic bus for the summer or a dependable travel companion, this bus has everything you need.
