Most expensive 71 VW Bus ever? Sold for $47,500.00



Before auction:

Type 2 comes from an unknown year with uncertain mileage and nothing about condition other than what's visible. Expected price: $8,000 to $12,000.

After auction:

Dharma Van: $47,500

They didn't sell those because they were unsafe for the road.

That was the only one that they restored inside and out.

$50k for the van is a lot of money but that van was awesome

Nice!

Remember kids it's all about the badge on the hood...in this case it's the Dharma logo.

My dad had a VW Bus along with a white Beetle earlier in his life. A part of me has always wanted to restore a Bus and make it teal and white. I love them.
