Summary
This unique 1971 Volkswagen Type 2 panel van was famously repowered with a 215ci Buick V8 by American auto designer Pete Brock and used as a shop rig and hang glider vehicle. Featured on Jay Leno's Garage, this modified Bus has undergone a color change to Porsche Grand Prix White and features a custom black front panel, bolstered seats, and a rebuilt engine and transaxle.
