Condition
7
The van is in overall solid condition with slight wear visible in paint and bodywork, as expected for a 60-year-old vehicle. There are minor age-related marks, including light dents and scratches around the doors, rear wheel arches, and bumpers. The paintwork has some areas that would benefit from touch-ups, particularly at the front where a fabric bra has dulled the paint. The interior seats are in good condition with light creases, and the dashboard shows no major damage. Mechanically, the engine has been replaced and uprated, and the brakes have been refurbished. The leisure battery requires attention, and the petrol gauge can fluctuate. Overall, it requires minor reconditioning.

Description
The 1962 Volkswagen Type 2 T1 Split Screen campervan, often affectionately referred to as the “Splitty”, has a rich history that cements its place as one of the most iconic vehicles of the 20th century.
Originally derived from the Volkswagen Type 2 Transporter, which debuted in 1950, the Split Screen was Volkswagen’s answer to the growing demand for practical, multi-purpose vehicles.
Its simple yet ingenious design, featuring a rear-mounted air-cooled engine and forward-control layout, offered excellent interior space and versatility.
By the early 1960s, the Split Screen had become a global phenomenon, embraced not only as a dependable workhorse for tradespeople and businesses, but also as a lifestyle vehicle for families and adventurers.
Coming to market from almost 15 years with our vendor, this example is an SO42 variant, known for its distinctive pop-top roof, high-quality wood cabinetry, rock and roll bed, folding table, rear hatch, walk-through layout, and safari windows.
