1961 VW 23 Window Deluxe Microbus

What you are looking at is an original 23 Window Microbus that had been sitting in a Washington forest for many many years just rotting away. We are happy that we were the ones to accept the challenge of getting this 23 Window back on the road and save it from being parted out. Yes, this Bus needed hundreds of hours in metal work but Silver Lining did it. First, we owe a huge thank you to the new owner of this Bus as he was the one that trusted us to bring this gem back to life. Our client is the a proud owner of a 1963 15 Window Bus and he wanted to add a 23 to his collection.

1959 Volkswagen 23 Window Deluxe Microbus

We found this Bus in our own neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. This one was a battle to locate the owner, but we ended up getting the Bus. After pulling it out of a forest, we brought the Bus home and gave it a really good bath that was 30 years over due. Once that task was completed, a great client of ours purchased it from us to perform a full turnkey restoration. The Bus looked good from afar, but it was far from good.
