….This is the finest factory conversion money could buy back in the day. This bus sleeps 4 adults with ease!! The bus was shipped to the Philippines then on to Australia. How do we know this? well we have a huge history file with the bus that came with it from Australia. The bus was a factory special order as VW did not market the Westfalia model in the U.K post This van is just lovely inside and out. The 2 litre engine pulls beautifully and the van is just a joy to drive. We have re-trimmed all of the front and rear seating and added a new pop top for good measure. The trim is all German vinyl and has been done in house. Fear not though as we have all of the original bed and seat covers as well as the original unmarked front seats as part of the price!!

….With much regret, I have decided to sell my 1973 (tax exempt) Westfalia Camper Van 1.6 engine with twin carbs. It was purchased in 2010 in quite a state and over the last couple of years, I have paid to have it restored. This is your opportunity to pick up a nearly finished van which as well as know, a right hand drive Westfalia can command up to £18,000+ !! I also have the original bed, original roof bed, brand new cream seat covers for the front and I am open to serious cash offers. We are located just south of Bristol – about 10 minutes from Bristol Airport and 10 minutes from M5 Junction 21. I have receipts totalling many thousands of pounds for work completed to in the last 18 months. I also have the original Westfalia cabinets including coolbox and rear seat. The pop top roof inside and out is in very good condtion. The MOT ran out this month (May 2012) – I’ve spent so much money with different garages, that I’ve had enough and this is the reason I am selling it. The engine does start, but the twin carbs need attention to get it running smoothly. It was last driven in March 2012 for about 30 miles – engine was quite lumpy due to carbs, but otherwise drove fine. Here is a list which my mechanic gave me of jobs to be done (excludes re-fitting of interior): N/S front and rear brake lines insecure O/S front and rear brake lines insecure N/S bottom balljoint gaiter split N/S inner and outer track rod ends gaiters split O/S inner and outer track rod ends have excessive play Steering damper snapped O/S inner and outer C.V boots split N/S inner and outer C.V boots perished…close to spliting clutch and brake pedal rubbers drivers door handle innop fuel leak from carbs play in both rear wheel bearings drivers seat not adjustable excessive play in steering arm bushes(front beam) headlight bulb retainer The following may fail the mot, or requires attention o/s floor/ 1st outrigger rotten n/s outrigger rotten handbrake cables corroded engine tinware and engine bay seal missing Bodywork is very good in most places – although some rusts has appeared on the bottom of the front doors and some bubbling by the rear door opener. I have original cabinets and rear seat to go inside (see photos) – these need a little attention to make them shipshape and are worth hundred of pounds on their own. New front wiring loom (fitted in the last few weeks) New rear cab flooring fitted. 4 white wall tyres (hardly used) fitted 1 year ag (not the cheap insert white walls that some Ebayers use to sell their vans) Many panels replaced prior to respray Original front seats. I would advise inspecting this vehicle prior to making an offer – to somebody who has the time, this will not take much to turn it into an excellent vehicle I have been as honest as possible with my descrption but cannot say for sure if more or less work is needed to make the vehicle roadworthy. Winning bidder will need to pay £200 deposit via Paypal which holds vehicle for 7 days with balance in cash on delivery, and arrange for the vehicle to be collected. A trailer or transporter will be needed.
