Sharing a chassis with the much-loved VW microbus, the Type 2 pickups were one of the original compact trucks. With their rear-mounted, air-cooled four cylinder engines providing power, they were an economical load-mover capable of hauling considerable weight. This one has a unique custom paint scheme that allows it to stand out from the crowd but even in stock form, they are so uncommonly seen that taking one out is a sure crowd pleaser.
