Due to a growing family, I am sadly selling my loved 1970 Type 2 Westfalia Camper Van. This van is a left drive California import so rust is not an issue here. The chassis is solid and bodywork is in great condition. Only rust is minor surface spots. I had a new engine (VEGA Recon) fitted by Gary Angel racing in 2015 replacing heat exchangers and getting the tin wear up to date. The van was imported to Wales in 2005 by the previous owner and underwent an exterior respray and interior update the rubbers were replaced then. I have since had fuel hoses updated replaced shocks, brake pads and fitted a hot start relay.

advertised on ebay as well https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1970-VW-Type-2-Early-Bay-Camper-Van/173307100113

If I was to keep the van I would look to do a disc upgrade and maybe electronic ignition to save adjusting the point but otherwise she is all together.
