My First Early Bay

[58herbie]

This was my first early bay, bought 2003 local to us well less than a mile, from a family to whom it was just a camper not a VW, great buy as all i had to do was cut back the paint, re vanish the interior and relay the vinyl flooring as it horrid carpet..
Its a April '68 Devon Eurovette finished in lotus white with indian red interior with the devon red trim, two berth with the removable cooker by the sliding door and sink over the wheel arch and coolbox behind the passenger seat. wardrobe was behind the driver and storage locker..

well here are some pics.

now owed by some very good friends of Ricki's
