1960 Volkswagen Transporter Pickup 1960 Volkswagen Transport

Step back into an era where simplicity and utility met style with this 1960 Volkswagen Transporter Pickup. This classic vehicle is more than just a truck-it's a statement of timeless design and practical charm that evokes memories of open roads and endless possibilities. Restored approximately 22 years ago by ISP West VW Parts & Restoration in Carson, California, this pickup has been lovingly maintained and displayed in a showroom until recently. Its vibrant red paint with a crisp white roof and bumpers captures attention and invites you to imagine the stories you could create behind its wheel.

Inside, the pickup offers a clean, no-nonsense interior that stays true to its vintage roots. The gray vinyl bench seat provides straightforward comfort, complemented by matching gray door panels and headliner. The floor is carpeted with a Coco Mats liner, adding a touch of protection and style. A Blaupunkt pull-out radio is mounted under the dash, ready to fill your drives with classic tunes. Minimal wear inside preserves the authentic feel, making it a cozy and inviting space for any journey.

Beneath the hood, this Transporter is powered by a replacement 1.6-liter dual-port flat-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transaxle that includes gear reduction boxes, a "Freeway Flyer" gearset, and a 3.88:1 ring and pinion for enhanced drivability. The electrical system has been converted to 12 volts, modernizing its functionality. Recent servicing in October 2024 included an oil change, valve adjustment, distributor, fuel filter, fan belt, and left rear wheel cylinder replacement. The mechanical upgrades ensure smooth shifting through all gears and reliable braking with manual front disc and rear drum brakes.
