Now Keeping: 1971 Westfalia Pop Top

[Shorty]

Hi,

I've decided to sell my beloved Westy...

The bus is an import from Texas, USA, so LHD naturally with a genuine Westfalia interior in very good condition... This includes a cab bunk and a single roof bunk. The canvas is sound and ready for use.

The body and the underside are both unbelievably solid. It's solid, rock solid! (I'll even supply any viewer with a magnet I'm that confident!! )

I have overhauled the front and rear brakes in the last year, which included new flexible brake hoses and the brake fluid was replaced at the time too. The CV joints have also been done along with all serviceable items (oil & strainer / plugs / valve gaps, HT leads etc etc..)

Modifications:

Creative Engineering (standard width) adjustable front beam
T2D Adjustable Spring Plates
BugPack Ceramic Exhaust

drawbacks: I'll be totally honest, there are two small job need to be done that I have not yet got around to, the horn and the windscreen washers have recently stopped working.. I do have an electric pump and push button included for the windscreen washers - you just need to 'plumb it in' so to speak...

You really can buy this bus and head off into the sunset for some great adventures, there's no bodywork to do and I've done all the oily bits already!

Spring and summer are coming!

I was out driving this bus yesterday, and even in -2C she started on the first turn of the key and drove superbly!

They certainly will! Part of me and most of my friends, even my wife doesn't want me to sell it, and when I was driving it yesterday I really was having second thoughts.. still am TBH!

But, we are funny old creatures eh, I've seen something else I like the look of, so I'm willing to take the risk of selling my sorted bus in favour of one that could end up being not quite so sorted... WHY? :?

Anyway.. I might well change my mind soon, so get yourself this sorted westy before I do!

Saw you driving down the hill to the Blackwood bridge yesterday morning, I was the odd looking bloke in the Silver Mercedes giving you a "hang loose" :lol:
Looked good!
