I believe your destination code is Hamburg(Raffay)

523926 is a special Westfalia paint code = Pastel White L90D

A19 = group code for 020 026 089 102 181 206 506 507 511 517 524 525 (basically US spec items & a splash of chrome ;) )
195 = Exclusive use of Blaupunkt radio (with m95,m97 & M98 only)
793 states a special note in the german licence papers saying that a trumatic SB2000 heater is fitted - for types 231 only but only 77-79 westy campmobiles - so not sure thats right - unless it was used earlier to denote a special note for the Eberspacher?



So I guess it was a US serviceman that bought it & then took it back to US before you imported it here. ;)
 
Great, thanks - that all fits in with what I have been told - PO bought if off the original owner in California
and mentioned they had shipped it from Germany at some stage.

Colour is pastel white. ;)
