A rare chance to buy a classic 42 year old camper in great condition, with brand new £3k spent on good quality re-spray in original colour by professionals. This Westy camper has 40 years of history in a book kept by its main owner. 10 months MOT, well serviced, reliable & immaculate interior to enjoy. A very reliable, timeless and charming camper - even the curtains are original and in great condition having been restored with due care and attention recently.original radio works, the elderly previous owner clearly looked after his camper that he owned for best part of 40 years, as has had new engine that has to be driven to be appreciated, so smooth is it, new steering box/gear box, tmi covered seats in cab - new seating support/springs rebuilt for comfort, all new seals, lights and brakes. lhd westy imported in 2010 - so zero rust. Roof canvas is as the photos - rare to find the original canvas in such amazing condition, even the zips work with ease, but has two tiny tears where it joins the roof that are easily fixed.
No welding. Had a couple of tiny rust spots under windscreen prior to new paint resolving this.
