*** Collected 19th October 2009 by Rose Tapper ***1973 Rare Westfalia Automatic, Imported from Australia by us and then given a make over

Sold

**taken 23/10/09 Rose Tapper of Surrey**. '73 RHD VW campervan Oz import Westfalia Auto

Update: 29-9-09 The van is back from the paint shop, The finish is like glass and to say we are impressed is an under statement!!

This is rather a rare bus indeed. A full factory RHD vw campervan converted by coach builders Westfalia. The van has all of its original interior down to the rare stool. All of the interior furnishings are being re trimmed in 2 tone cream and grey German vinyl. The floor is a black and white checked vinyl.

The bus has the benefit of the smooth 3 speed auto which was fully rebuilt in Australia before being shipped. We have now installed a fully rebuilt 2 litre engine with lots of NOS (new old stock) parts such as original carbs, heat exchangers and exhaust. The van is now on the button and ready for an mot.

We have also sourced an orignal pop top canvas, this bus is going to be as good as new.
