REgarding Mileage

Some of these buses are pushing 47 years old—which in bus years is basically “wise elder with great stories to tell.” The odometers? They just keep spinning like a slot machine in Vegas, so who knows how many miles have rolled over on these chassis.

But here’s the thing: the engines, trannys, brakes, and all the mechanical doodads are not 47 years old. Those bits have been refreshed, repaired, replaced, and generally pampered by our crew.

So, mileage? Honestly, it’s kind of meaningless—like asking how many naps your grandpa has taken. If you really want the number, we’ll tell you, but it won’t mean much. What does matter is that these buses have been well cared for and are ready for more adventures.

✨ 1978 VW Transporter Champagne Edition – Rare Sunroof Model ✨

Here’s a special find for the true VW enthusiast: a 1978 VW Transporter Champagne Edition, built for the U.S. market and featuring the desirable factory sunroof opening. These Champagne Editions were produced in limited numbers, making them an uncommon gem today.

🚌 Body & Condition
The body is straight and solid, ready for restoration. Please note, this bus is being sold strictly “as is.” What you see is what you get: the white pop-top pictured is not attached — it was simply being stored there.

There is no title for this bus. We never received one, and it’s likely no longer in the system. That said, for those who know the ropes, a title can be obtained through the usual channels.

💡 Opportunity
Whether you’re looking for a restoration candidate, a rare sunroof donor, or the foundation for a custom camper build, this Champagne Edition Transporter offers a rare chance to start with solid bones and unique heritage.

Trestles has some needs: a well-regarded VW specialty shop has estimated about $6,000 in mechanical repairs. It also has some cosmetic imperfections outside. That’s why we’ve priced it at $9,000—a serious discount compared to the $20–30k these vans often fetch in solid condition.

Winnebago Brave — Not for the Faint of Heart

Got vision? Got tools? Got a strong immune system? Then this one’s for you.

We’re selling our Winnebago Brave motorhome—a vintage beauty that’s been completely gutted on the inside. We bought it as a restoration project with big dreams… and then parked it. And parked it. And… well, you get the idea.

The reality:

  • It leaks like a gossip at a family reunion.

  • The body has seen better decades (yes, decades).

  • Water damage? Oh yeah. Bring your hazmat suit and imagination.

  • The interior? A blank canvas (read: "totally stripped").

BUT—it’s not all doom and duct tape:

  • The engine runs (Dodge 440).

  • The generator works.

  • The transmission is solid.

  • And the tires are in good shape, ready to roll… somewhere.

This is not your average fixer-upper. This is a character-building experience on wheels. Perfect for someone with grit, guts, and a love for lost causes with good potential.

💰 Asking: $850. Make us an offer. Bonus points if you show up with a trailer.

⚙️ The Reality: His engine, transmission, and interior have already been harvested.

🌟 What Remains: Taos is still full of treasures—windows, dash, body parts, and other useful pieces that can breathe new life into restoration projects or round out a collector’s stash.

It’s never easy to say goodbye, but knowing that pieces of Taos will live on in other adventures feels like a road trip that keeps on rolling. 💫

💰 Asking: $1,800

If you’d like to give a piece of Taos a new home—or help him carry on through your own VW project—reach out and let us know.
