1971 tintop

[Speedman]

Having owned a 1974 1303 and a 1989 MK2 Golf GTI for a while we've been hunting for a camper, well last weekend we finally found and bought one, we're collecting it next weekend and can't wait to get out and use it.

Its a 1971 California import Westfalia tintop, recently resprayed from its original plain white

The interior is in fairly good ncik, considering its been in the Sacramento sun for years, the panels are not cracked but some trim is a bit baked and a few bits are missing

but nothing we shouldn't be able to locate, its being lowered a few inches next week and sealed underneath against the English weather

Theres more pictures on my website and I'll add more when its home with us 8)

[Speedman]

I did look at a couple of beige bays, but condition and interior ruled over colour in the end :wink:

[currylager]

Very nice pal, looks like you're prepared for the shows already :wink:

 

[Speedman]

its gonna be nice not to be putting a tent up, but the drive home will be a bit longer :roll:

We did Vanfest for the first time last year and went in our Mk2 Golf GTI, really going to miss going up the hill past the Air Balloon pub at 85mph over taking all those campers crawling up there :wink:
