1971 VW Bus / Westfalia / Campmobile
1971 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon
Head turning 1971 Westy primarily used as a weekend warrior for day trips to the beach, special events, overnight camping, and general tooling around the city. Additional possibilities are endless such as more and different excursions, tailgating, local shows, some type of a business opportunity, or perhaps take restoration to the next level.
Engine reliably starts right up and is always confidently ready to roll. Garage kept with many new parts, upgrades, and accessories all within the last couple of years. One of a kind painted graphics with patina style character and semi-retro interior vibe finishes the overall look. A clean title and professional work receipts are in hand. Please see last picture that has a quick snapshot of just some of the work performed.
Observations and additional notes:
- The following items are there but not currently hooked up: Radio/speakers, horn, outlet, sink water spout- For some reason the previous owner removed the reverse lock out plate. This DOES NOT affect driving and DOES NOT prevent the vehicle from going in reverse. This simply means that downshifting from 3rd gear to 2nd gear requires the driver to be a little more precise as not to go too far left. I never installed a lock out plate because it was and is not a big issue for me at all.- The bus is not 100% rust free. You will see evidence of some superficial rust in the classic VW bus areas. For example windshield area, engine bay, back cargo area (see pictures).
It's great to dream about VW Bus ownership, but a non refundable $500 deposit is required to ensure that I am dealing with business serious contacts. There are no exceptions, so please be sure to contact me with any questions prior to clicking the "Buy" button.
This is a great opportunity at a great price point. VW bus values always trend upwards.
