Vehicle Detail
It is a 77 pop-top westy, burnt orange/yellow body. The body has little rust, except under the front windshield. It is still solid, but rainwater does get past the seal. There is also a little under the battery tray, and just surface discoloration on the underbody. There are two 'scars' on the right side: one across the sliding door, and one on the rear quarter panel (which is minor). All the glass is good, louvered windows function correctly and have screens, rolling windows work, I believe the wing vent windows forward work, not sure about the one in the left rear side. Definitely a candidate for paint, but no bare spots. Evidence of dent repair to front left (at driver's feet). Top is intact, no breaks or cracks but is in need of paint to be pretty again, and the pull down handle is broken and needs to be replaced, as does the canvas tent up there. Seals well, no air noise or water. Cushions/seats are all great or new. Front 2 are newly covered and really nice, the top double bed is original and solid, the rear z-bed is new foam and a Mexican blanket covering (stapled in).I removed the camper interior bits as I found I never really used them, and replaced with a full width z-bed - now sleeps TWO or even three (capitalization for a really wide 2 or a normal 3 width bed) and seats 3 across (with seat belts). I picked up a '71 rear facing seat/storage to put behind the driver's seat. So the bus seats 6 and sleeps 4 full sized adults, plus the child cot across the front seats. Included. The engine is a 2 liter solid lifter with dual two barrel Weber carb's, installed and tuned by The Bug Stop, in Arlington TX. They also installed an external oil cooler with electric fan and thermostat and a deep sump oil pan for more quantity as well as cooler oil. I added a VDO tach (where the clock was, next to the speedo) and mini VDO oil pressure, temp and clock in a nice installation below the radio opening (no radio).Two brand new (less than 1000 miles) tires are on the bus. Who's name is Bert, by the way. The rear bumper is off, but includedRather telling is that, like Lord of the Rings - one key to rule them all. ONE KEY for ignition, doors and trunk, and all locks WORK! You can certainly drive the bus home - wherever that is - I think that's a pretty detailed and accurate description of what's there.
