VW Rabbit based Grumman Kubvan mini delivery van on the Samba $1500.00.



This would be a fun project, the possibilities of this thing  :P If I wasn't moving I would seriously consider bringing it home.

Looks like an NA Automatic, I guess companies that used these weren't in a hurry to get the deliveries done.  :lol:

I've loved these things for a while. If I had the spare money right now, I'd go for it. But, too many projects in the fray. The price seems good though.

Doubtful, that was a couple of years ago. Keep checking the Samba. One pops up every now and then. 8)

I talked to someone in the Pittsburgh area who had one for sale about a year ago but it wouldn't make the trip to S.C. and I had no way to transport it. I'm sure it is long gone. :(
