There are only three very small spots of rust. There is one small hole above drivers side rear wheel (shown in pictures), very small spot in battery tray (size of quarter), very small spot on front drivers side floor (a couple of pin holes).

Professional VW shops between Colorado Springs and Denver Colorado have completed all the work to this bus. I have put about 500 miles on it to make sure there are no bugs that need to be worked out of it (there were none). I have had the break-in oil changed so it's ready to go. This bus runs great and everything works lights, speedometer, horn and even the interior light works. This is a great bus I would drive anywhere.
The bus is titled in my name with current registration and insurance. I built this bus to keep but family comes first. I have just over 28k in this bus, counting punches price, I don't expect to recuperate all my money but I will not lose my pants on it. The reserve is a good bit lower than what I have in it. I have many pictures of the build but can only post 24 so for additional pictures or information please contact me at 256-426-7817
I reserve the right to stop the auction because the bus is listed in other places as well.
