Vehicle Description
We are pleased to offer for consideration this Volkswagen Westfalia
Camper Bus Deluxe Pop-up. The Type 2 VW Vans remain an iconic
historic figure today. The Westfalia-Werke Van Conversion Company
converted the Type 2 VW Vans in to these awesome campers.
Volkswagen described the Campmobile as "having a cottage that goes
anywhere you want to go". These icons are still nostalgic head
turners today with a lot of fans whenever they head down the road
or pull in to a campground.
The 1978 Volkswagen Westfalia Campmobile Deluxe offered here
remains highly original as it is unrestored. The odometer reads
62701 miles and these miles are believed to be original. The
vehicle appears to have been painted once some time ago, in its
original L 86 Z, Agata Brown. The body panels appear to be
completely original to the bus as it still features excellent fit
as all doors, including the slider open and shut properly an with
ease. The paint does have some bubbling in the seams and on the
bottom edges which, if chosen, can be cleaned up and refurbished
with relative ease. The interior remains very tidy and highly
original with the original plaid upholstery remaining on the front
seats and top bunk. Thee rear seat / bed has been professionally re
upholstered with coordinating material. Mechanically, it is very
tight, proven and ready to camp and cruise. It is powered by a 2.0
liter 4 cylinder motor, the optional automatic transmission shifts
properly through all gears.

converting to double bed with locker below, swivel seat, swing out

The Volkswagen Campmobiles remain extremely popular. The are
nostalgic vehicles that represent a free spirit. Documented sales

of 50,000.00 dollars. The vehicle offered here, although not with
