Westy Trailer (1973) NOW SOLD

[faux]

1973 Westfalia Trailer for sale.

I have stripped it down, Por 15'd metal where needed, Zinc primed and painted L90D Pastel White. The wood has not been replaced but I have stripped, stained and varnished it. The paint is not perfect as I used rattle cans but it should keep the rust at bay for a long time to come. The bolts that I have replaced, I have used Stainless.

I have flipped the bar to allow a level trailer on a lowered bus but can easily be reversed.

I will post more pics when the weather is better.

£450 ono

Looks good Jon, you decided not to keep it then.

Unfortunately I need the Cash to get a new Engine.......mine just isn't big enough to pull the Puck long distance.

A bit of an impulse buy, didn't think I would be keeping it but I felt sorry for it. I like to keep busy and my bus needs an engine.

Sorry I beat you to it, yours looks pretty cool any way. 8)

Don't suppose anyone knows where i can purchase a set of the rubber dampers that fit on these trailers?

 

[faux]

I think Frank does them? I can't find his contact details but if you put a wanted post someone will know. I saw them at 2 dealers at Vanfest (Franks and the guy I bought the trailer off).

Sandpaper
Two Rear Triangles
New Stainless Screws and Bolts
1 x tin Por15

I hope Chris and his Family enjoy the extra space.

Yeah Jon,

I know what you mean, my trailer ended up costing more than I thought it would to restore. But they do look cool on the back, even if I do say so myself. 8) 8)
