Outfitted with a commercial espresso system, smoothie station, cooking equipment, and full plumbing and electrical setup, it’s designed for immediate operation at events, markets, or private functions. With a recently rebuilt engine showing just 5,000 miles, it drives reliably and is ready to start serving — and earning — right away.

- Commercial Estoria Gloria dual-group espresso machine
- Built-in smoothie station and 36" flat-top grill
- Large stock pot burner for soups and hot foods
- Stainless steel counters and food prep area
- Integrated workstation, dry storage, and ice maker
- Fully functional plumbing: triple sink, hand sink, hot water heater
- Reliable propane and electrical systems
- Awning and exterior customer counter
- Unit lacks California HCD/HUD certification
Seller NoteThe Kombi is in very good condition and presents beautifully, but it is not a perfect show vehicle. As with any vintage vehicle, there are minor flaws and imperfections. It runs and drives well, starts reliably, and attracts attention everywhere it goes. People regularly stop to take photos, ask questions, and admire it.
This vehicle should be viewed primarily as a unique business opportunity rather than a daily driver. The value lies in its ability to draw crowds, create memorable customer experiences, and generate income as a mobile café or food truck.
While the vehicle is mechanically sound and drives well, it remains a nearly 50-year-old Volkswagen with original characteristics. It lacks power steering, a modern suspension, or the comforts of a newer vehicle. For local events, festivals, markets, weddings, and promotional appearances, it performs exceptionally well. However, if you intend to regularly drive long distances or use it as a primary means of transportation, there are more suitable options
