The client really loved the classic VW Bus but wanted something much more dependable and capable of going on camping trips. The interior was customized for camping which included adding a dual AC system, rotating the bench seat around so a custom table could be added. ICON even installed a ARB roof tent on a custom roof rack. The Bus is powered by a 2.0 L VW Jetta Mk3 engine producing 195 horsepower connected to a Vanagon transmission via a Kennedy Engineered Products adapter.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"
