We have this very early original paint westy arrives this weekend

This is an October of 67 Westfalia bus imported from Southern California. Comes with the original owners manual showing the dealers stamp from the day of first sale.

The bus has only one area of rust that would take around 1 hour to repair that is under the front floor mat on the drivers side. The rest of the bus is rust free. Nothing on the sills, windscreen base etc. The underside is super solid and largely in original paint.

There are dents on the rear corners and the lower drivers side nose just around the indicator. The rear corner dents sem to have missed the battery trays so that makes popping them out much easier. No filler on the corners at all the bus is original paint.

The motor runs well and is a 1600cc single port. I have test driven the bus and all gears are good with a good gearchange too.

Brakes need cylinders.

The interior is complete apart from the sink unit which has been narrowed by the last owner to make space inside. The westfalia camper tag inside on the seat base is stamped 1967.

Original black plate (originally sold and stayed in California) california bus and a great project for early bay fans. I have the missing indicator lights in the bus last owner bought some replacements but didn't fit them.

Maybe it's like the old how-many-jelly-beans-in-the-jar competition... Guess the correct price and win a bus :D

My guess is... £7495
 
Our parts page gives an indication of the type of parts we stock. Stock changes daily and parts are priced on condition so pricing online is not possible. Just give us a bell we will let you know prices.

Thanks,
Graham
