Looking for solid westfalia

[lard]

Have been browsing around and like others on here am looking out for a bus to replace my last project,

After a solid example with sound body work, I spent 8 years restoring my last car before selling to fund this so really could do without any welding/painting again :| - mechanicals and interior I can cover but would need to be MOT'd and a runner

Ideally a westfalia/camper conversion with pop top - LHD import preferred - also consider a tin top (I prefer the look but need to fit family and 3 small kids in at some point!) and have been scoping out panel vans/micro buses but would need to factor in the cost to convert myself in the budget,

Target around 9K - thought I'd post on here if anyone has anything suitable or can recommend one - attempting to bide my time until the right bus comes along!

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks for the replies guys - nice looking crossover but to be honest I'm looking for a small light EB

I'll keep an eye out for the bus herbie when it's done, was reading the thread the other night and it's coming along well

I did see this http://forum.earlybay.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15402 and gutted I don't have the extra cash - think it's made my mind up as that would be my ideal bus - so looking specifically for a white (is it lotus white?) westy LHD import

Maybe does'nt completely fit your bill, but you never know.

Hi ben

thanks for taking the time to reply - looks like a solid bus - hopefully though I'll be getting one soon as graham @ midland earlybay is currently on the case with a White westie so I'm likely to be busless for only a short time longer!

Good luck with the sale
