This 1975 Westfalia camper has been based in Bellingham WA for more than three decades

There is practically no rust. Third owner. Single cabinet leaves maximum floor space. Upholstery was replaced in 1985 and is functional except for the front seats which have covers on them.

Most mechanical components that wear out have been replaced over the years. The stock 1800cc fuel injected engine was rebuilt at 128K. The cam and heads were re-rebuilt at 148K. Currently at 203K. All flexible fuel lines recently replaced. Vantra 8 ply tires have less than 2K miles. Maintenance and modifications tend toward function over originality. It still looks great, functions better than the factory set up, and is ready for fun!
