A 1965 Volkswagen Camper Van outfitted with The Who's iconic logo and images of the band is up for auction.

Restored and customized, the "Magic Bus" was raffled off in 2008 to raise funds for Roger Daltrey's pet charity, the Teenage Cancer Trust. For the past 10 years it's been touring the U.K. and appearing at classic car shows and raising money for the charity.

It's now up for auction with a large donation from the sale going to Teenage Cancer Trust.

With the roof painted with Britain's Union Jack flag, the "Magic Bus" is fully outfitted with red, white and blue upholstery and has a fold-down double bed and plenty of storage space. The two sun visors have been signed by Daltrey and Pete Townshend, while Richard Evans, The Who’s art director and designer of the "Magic Bus," signed the interior.

Estimated to sell for between $72- and $95,000, it will go under the hammer at Silverstone Auctions on August 27th.
