1968 Volkswagen Type 2 Single Cab Pickup "Dual Treasure Chest"

Introducing this rare 1968 Volkswagen Type 2 Single Cab Pickup "Dual Treasure Chest" finished in a Neptune Blue exterior over a Dark Blue interior. Built as a California-delivered example that was originally exported to San Francisco, this Type 2 retains the character and utility that made Volkswagen's commercial vehicles a staple for small businesses, tradesmen, and surfers throughout the 1960s.

Highlights: 
- California Pickup
- Exterior Color: Neptune Blue
- Interior Color: Dark Blue
- Rare Dual Treasure Chest Doors
- 1600cc Single-Port Air-Cooled Flat-Four
- 4-Speed Manual Gearbox
- Solex Carburetor
- Saphire Radio
- 1/3 Driver and 2/3 Passenger Bench Seat
- 14-Inch Steel Wheels 
- Manufacturer's Literature Included

Powered by a 1600cc engine paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox, this Single Cab offers the simple and dependable driving experience Volkswagen became known for during the era. Inside the cab, details include a two-spoke black steering wheel, VDO instrumentation, bench seating, glove box, antenna, and a period-style Sapphire radio. The engine is equipped with a Solex carburetor, while the exterior rides on 14-inch steel wheels fitted with Continental tires and accented by VW hubcaps.

One of the more desirable features on this pickup is its rare dual treasure chest locker door configuration, allowing storage access from both the driver and passenger sides. The cargo bed is fitted with wooden slat runners to help protect the metal floor and is complemented by fold-down steel treasure chest side gates along with a rear tailgate. Adding to its distinctive presentation is a canvas tilt and canopy setup supported by a black metal hoop frame with wooden slats, giving the truck the unmistakable appearance of a period working Volkswagen. Additional exterior details include period-correct Cloud White painted bumpers and dual elephant ear mirrors with polished chrome arms. 

Volkswagen introduced the Type 2 Single Cab as a practical utility vehicle, but over time these pickups became highly sought after due to their limited production numbers compared to passenger Bus models, especially examples retaining original-style features. This is a great opportunity to acquire a Volkswagen Type 2 Single Cab Pickup that remains mechanically sound. For $36,500
