Originally a tourist delivery bus picked up new in Brussels, Belgium by an American service man and driven around Europe before being shipped to the US West Coast – San Diego - in 1976 where it spent the rest of its time until early 2010 when I bought it and restored before shipping it back to the UK to attend Vanfest.

All documentation included , registration cards dating back to 1976 all in San Diego , California , Westfalia manual , Original owners manual , service book , old receipts from previous owner and all my receipts for all new parts that went into this project from top parts providers like Wolfsburg West , Bus Depot and Go Westy.

The bus has had a light restoration as it was very solid indeed when I bought it. It was repainted in the original colour Chianti Red a 2 year only colour and very classy looking. All the windows were fitted with new quality rubber seals from Wolfsburg West, new best quality door seals fitted too(genuine VW where possible).

Original blue California license plates are included , same license plates since 1976 !!!

A lovely classic bus ready for camping for Only £9500

California title in my name , VAT and registration fees are still due and are the responsibility of the new owner.

The bus will be available for viewing at Vanfest or by appointment before or after the show.
First viewing has been granted so please contact me if you want to have a private viewing as well.
