Short Type 2: Project car or Objet d’Art?

Here we have a shortened VW Bus, much like that sold be Gas Monkey Garage at Scottsdale this year, but in rather worse condition.

This bus has no engine, trans or title and is claimed to be rusted out.  This is likely going to be an art object at this point, but would sure be a cool one.  Why not cut off that front end and mount it such that you have a bus emerging from a wall?  One could do so and then sell off the doors and anything else that is still in useful condition.

If that’s your thing, contact this seller and be ready to move this thing yourself!  The seller lists $1 as the price, but that might be a placeholder.

$1?

It does look like there could be some salvageable parts here.  Clearly, it’s been used as its own strange form of art, though it might have been a shop van before that.

Here’s more evidence of shop van usage.

Ad text:

Hello I have a VW bus that has been cut in half and shortened to half its original length. Its been sitting for many years and is totally rusted to the point that its probably not ever going to see the road again. It does not have an engine nor title. It would make a great art piece or some sort of funky furniture piece in the right setting? It is a head turner for sure. This would also have to be moved by flat bed trailer to its new home.
