A Wolfsburg West steering damper accompanies a rebuilt Wolfgang steering box. Passengers are held snugly in place with Wolfsburg West seatbelts, and the stock seats are upholstered with Sewfine covers. The stock dashboard is set with a rebuilt, original speedometer. Embry’s Auto Body completed the paint and bodywork, and the bus has earned the Promoter’s Choice Award at the 2020 Bulli Brigade and the Best Paint Award at the 2020 Bug Jam.
