John Adams, Jefferson, Van Buren, Nixon and George H. W. Bush completed their terms as Vice president and later were elected President.
Fourteen of 46 Vice Presidents went on to become President. (That is, of the 43 different men to serve as President --noting that Cleveland is counted as both 22nd and 24th President-- 14 of them were VP beforehand.) John Adams

* these nine became President by the death or resignation (only with Ford, Nixon resigning) of the sitting President % of the preceding group, these five did NOT go on to be elected President in their own right (Note that only FIVE ever ascended to the office simply be being elected President, and the first two of these [Adams, Jefferson] did so before the current system of selecting Presidents was adopted. In other words, unless the President dies, the Vice Presidency has NOT proved a very successful 'stepping stone' to the Presidency.)
Fourteen is the total number.
9 vice-presidents succeeded to the presidency because of the death or resignation of the President. Four others were elected President while they were the incumbent Vice President. One was elected President after his term as Vice President expired.
John Tyler was elected Vice President in 1840. He replaced William Henry Harrison, who died of pneumonia in 1841. He did not run for president.
Millard Fillmore was elected Vice President in 1848. He replaced Zachary Taylor, who died in 1850 from illness. He failed to win the 1852 Whig Party presidential nomination. As the Know Nothing Party nominee in 1856 he received only eight electoral votes.
Andrew Johnson was elected Vice President in 1864. He replaced Abraham Lincoln, who was assassinated in 1865. He failed to win a presidential nomination in 1868.
Chester A. Arthur was elected Vice President in 1880. He replaced James A. Garfield, who was assassinated in 1881. He did not actively campaign for the 1884 Republican Party presidential nomination due to his failing health.
Theodore Roosevelt was elected Vice President in 1900. He replaced William McKinley, who was assassinated in 1901. He won the 1904 presidential election. He did not run in 1908 and was defeated in 1912.
Calvin Coolidge was elected Vice President in 1920. He replaced Warren G. Harding, who died of a heart attack in 1923. He won the 1924 presidential election. He chose not to run for reelection in 1928, but he sought the Republican Party presidential nomination in 1932. Incumbent President Herbert Hoover got the nomination with the votes of 98% of the convention delegates.
Harry S. Truman was elected Vice President in 1944. He replaced Franklin D. Roosevelt, who died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1945. He won the 1948 presidential election but did not seek reelection in 1952.
Lyndon B. Johnson was elected Vice President in 1960. He replaced John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated in 1963. He won the 1964 presidential election and was campaigning for the 1968 nomination, but he withdrew from the race at the end of March of that year, shortly after the New Hampshire primaries.
Gerald R. Ford was nominated to replace Vice President Spiro Agnew, who resigned in October of 1973 as part of a plea bargain in a tax evasion case. Congress confirmed Ford's nomination in December of 1973. He replaced Richard Nixon, who resigned in 1974. He lost the 1976 presidential election to Jimmy Carter.
