Unique,3-door, double-cab set-up - Restored - New Tires - New Clutch

1961 Volkswagen Double Cab Pickup Description:

This gorgeous example of one of Volkswagen's rarest models is now at MotoeXotica Classic Cars a 1961 three-door, double-cab pickup, which has benefited from a comprehensive restoration.

Dressed in Alabaster Gray over Mouse Gray, the exterior was recently treated to a wet-sand and polish, really making it stand out. The split windshield panels pop out and the side windows slide back and forth while the van has Hella headlights. The paint and trim are in excellent order overall. There are new front and rear glass panels and new seals. The cargo bed looks great and includes a Protecta Skid Gard mat. The vehicle was previously restored. The engine bay is very tidy and the front chrome bumper fits tightly to the body.

This pick-'em-up truck rolls on new Coker Classic wide whitewalls, size 165R15 at all four corners. Each one is mounted on a steel wheel, topped with a factory chrome, moon wheel cover. The wheel covers are in excellent order while the tires are in very good condition. There are also replacement brakes. That have been drove by the previous owner.

In back is a professionally rebuilt 1.6L flat, air-cooled four-cylinder engine breathing via dual exhausts. It has fewer than 2,000 miles on the rebuild as stated by the prior owner. Backing the motor is a rebuilt four-speed manual transmission, which has a new clutch and pressure plate.

Inside is a newer, Mouse Gray Houndstooth cloth interior. The dual bench seats look fantastic, as does the headliner and the black, two-spoke steering wheel. The dashboard has VDO gauges while it and the inner door panels echo the two-tone exterior and a floor shifter helps complete the interior, along with a modern AM/FM radio.

Competition to this VW in 1961 included Chevrolet's C10 crew cab, Dodge's W-100 QuadCab, Ford's F-250 Crew Cab Cruiser, GMC's custom crew cab truck and International Harvester's Travelette four-door truck.

This beautiful, double-cab VW Pickup is a unicorn in the automotive universe. If you want it for your own, visit MotoeXotica Classic Cars soon before it's just a memory!
