Vehicle Detail

Today we are offering for your consideration on this 1971 Volkswagen Bus Vanagon Westfalia Camper. Let's let the pictures do the talking on this CLASSIC BUS. This van is 42 years old and look brand new! I bought this camper about 9 years ago. It was purchased in Germany by a Navy Sailor. He used it there and then in Japan while serving. He then had it shipped back to the Texas area to use. I have used it on summer nice days and an occasional shore trip. So great to have the top up, under the stars, with the pines in the summer wind. It runs like a top and had it up to 70 or 75 in the highway. The body has NO noticeable scratches or dings/dents. I am very fussy. The paint is somewhat original but some panels have been professionally done dune to a tiny ping or two. On a bus, when looking on a angle, you see every little thing. NO BONDO, NO RUST, and the color matches perfect. The tires are very good and new shocks. Starts up every time and runs smooth. Chrome is nice too. The top camper was replaced at some time before I bought it. All interior is excellent with no cuts, marks, or damage either. Floor is original and also no messed with like many I have seen. I have to say the van is very mint and original. YOU WILL NOT FIND A CLEANER 1971 WESTFALIA on Ebay or a more HONEST SELLER. I paid $20,000 grand for it years ago. OK, it dose have an aftermarket Alpine am/fm CD player with 2 speakers mounted flush in wood headliner. All interior door cabinets are fine. Closet door has mirror on back from factory. Van comes with the original tool kit under passenger seat. It also has the hammock that opens when top is up, (we called the condo), and fold out baby cloth hammock that goes from inside windshield to back of seat area. We never used either of these hammocks. It also come with front curtain, (shown in last picture), original owner manuals and original maintenance book. The book has the original owners name and plastic ID Card. Included is also full new type cover and tent off of sliding door I think factory. Tent comes with poles and stakes. I don't think you will find any surprises and I want to state full disclosure. Here's the only things we could find that need minor attention. When going over a big bump the front springs make a type of slight squeak noise. Like they need to be greased. I had fitting greased and still heard the noise. This only happens when it's a large bump. I lived with it because it was minor, has been there all the time I owned it, and no mechanic could fine anything wrong. In fact I had the van fully check just last summer before a 2 day outing and she's fine. Very dependable. One back curtain hold back needs to be replace. The door under sink stop plastic needs to be replace. Sink pump is all there but doesn't work. These are minor things but I am stating all I know. This van has been a lot of fun and only costed me $235 a year to insure for 20 grand replacement value. Also classic registration plates with no fee. This baby, with just a little TLC is almost a show car and will turn every head. People love that VW horn. I hope the buyer has as much fun as we have had with it. Title is clear and I have it.
