Volkyland Spotlight - 1958 VW 23 Window T1 Samba

This 1958 Deluxe Microbus or Samba is definitively the one to have if you enjoy cruising around. This one is a little older than the one I saw last year but just as cool.


Gotta love those corner windows!

UPDATE March 24, 2023: As reported in Jalopnik and TheDrive, sadly, this wonderful collection was sold off in 2019 after the museum's closure a year earlier. As of this update, photos of all the vehicles can be found in Oldbug.com for those of you interested.
