Reminesing the Volkswagen Micro Bus

In a new photo gallery from News Times, the van that shaped an entire generation is brought back with descriptions of many of the monumental happenings in the history of the Volkswagen Microbus. A precursor to the modern-day mini-van, the Microbus brought a fairly fuel-friendly alternative to a generation in need of a utility vehicle rather than simply a cruiser. With its simple design and spacious interior, the Microbus quickly took off with the hippie generation of the 1960s; quickly becoming an icon in its generation. Being very customizable, Volkswagen came out with the ever-popular Westfalia camping edition van that featured two sleeping areas, a built-in stove, sink, and refrigerator. Celebrate this historic icon with this photo album. For all your other European auto repair and upgrade needs, check in with the experts at European Auto Specialist.
