This is one of the most incredible campers we have had come through the website ever!
This vehicle is ALL original and has just 958 miles on it since new.
Yes...you read that right...less than 1000 original miles!!!
The camper is being sold by the son of the original owner. it has always been garaged and obviously
driven very sparingly. His father bought it brand new at a dealership in Colorado, drove it for a very little bit,
the fuel pump went out and the van was parked in the garage and it sat, and sat, and sat.
Recently pulled out of storage it has been gone through by a VW repair shop
and is now in fully functional condition.
The condition is excellent inside and out.
Looking closely I think with a full detail this would be truly mind blowing in person.
The mileage is genuine...absolutely INSANE!
Original owners manuals and paperwork
The original window sticker and booklets...all like new.
The tires are thought to be the originals...there is some slight sidewall cracking, so perhaps replacement would be wise
for safety. You can see the wheel is a bit dirty...picture it polished up and clean.
These photos show it pretty much as-found (just a quick bath).
Lights and lenses are all in fantastic shape.
Sorry for the upside down shots...the chassis is all untouched with
factory undercoating and there is no rust at all.
As solid as you could ever dream.
Wow!
The photos are a bit mixed in here...but bear with me...you wont want to miss any of them.
Original cook top manuals
Just inside the cargo door the rubber mat is pulling away a bit...easy re-glue
Westfalia decal still on the roof.
Imagine how nice this will all look after a proper wax and polish!
Interior shot...just behind the drivers side seat.
Bug screen is included
Canvas in amazing original condition.
I love the big tall bumper guards...something rarely seen these days it seems.
Cabinetry is extremely clean.
Engine room is a bit dusty but still so clean underneath the dust...impressive.
All intact and proper.
Inside of the fridge.
Blaupunks speakers are AWESOME!
Controls
Stunning condition!
Doesnt look like it was ever used!
Privacy curtain included.
Dash is superb.
A bit messy wiring wise with the radio install
(done when new or shortly thereafter)
and a once-fitted CB radio (you can see the bracket for that in this pic)
Original rubber mats were covered with carpet...they are MINT!
One ding on the nose
Wow!
Seats inside were covered with blankets...looks like the table is there
CB antenna was routed up the door to an antenna base clamped to the rain gutter.
You can see the wire is taped in place at the moment.
I think this could all be removed easily with little sign of it ever being there.
The original toilet has never been used.
Curtains are excellent
What an amazing find!!
You will probably NEVER see another one in this condition...a very rare opportunity.
Seat upholstery is phenomenal.
1978 period Craig radio
Can you believe this?
Showroom!
Here is a paint ship that was touched up in one spot...the flaws are few on this Bus, but there are a couple.
The mileage again...shocker!
Floors are perfect
Some more engine room shots...amazing.
Look at the floor with the mats out...stunning!
Steering wheel has always had the cover on it too.
Under dash speakers were added as you can see...but all of it period correct and done when new.
Even the sink still has the sticker in place!
Wow
Table up!
Storage areas all clean
Totally untouched!
Wow!
Power cord is present
Superb
Are you blown away yet?
Check out the seats!
Here again you can see the home made carpet mats that cover the original flooring...it is pretty much
perfect underneath there.
Here you can see the Jensen speakers added and some of the wiring for the CB radio.
Those floors...impressive!
Dash table too!
Propane tank
Perfect
Closet
Under the engine.
Door panel detail
Stunning!
In closing this is a mindblower.
Buy this, detail it up just a bit, and you will have one of the nicest all original 78 Westfalias in the world.
It is hard to imagine one out there with less miles or in better shape...I know I have never seen one
and I dont expect I will.
