EXTERIOR
This gorgeous Chrome Yellow example is in remarkable survivor condition covering only 29k miles from new. Incredibly original and 100% solid, the body still presents with a great shine and no major defects, but with just the right level of patina to show its originality. The underside is equally superb with no structural corrosion and has never been welded; the only welding repair to have been carried out was to the battery tray when a previous battery had leaked. All of the trims and seals remain in fine order, and amazingly an original VW side tent is still present, sure to draw some attention at the campsites.
INTERIOR
Again, all in lovely original condition. The front cab is immaculate with no damage to the Canyon Brown seats, dash, door cards, headlining, or rubber floor mats. The original Devon interior is still fitted and in wonderful order throughout; the current owner’s wife is an interior designer and so she picked the lovely fabric that has been used for the rear seat covers and curtains. Up above, the pop-top works exactly as it should with two convenient pull-out bunks, and again the fabric is excellent. All the appliances are in fine working order.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The current owner has enjoyed several trips away and the camper has performed without fault every time. Barely run-in with a mere 29k miles from new, the van fires into life on first turn of the key and drives beautifully. This year it’s had a new battery, check over, and service, ready for its next adventure.
WHEELS, TYRES AND BRAKES
The original chrome hubcaps are showing some patina but still look smart. The wheels are shod in new tyres at the front and the rears still have plenty of tread remaining. The brakes have also been checked and are in fine operational condition.
HISTORY FILE
This wonderfully preserved bay window camper was first registered in July 1976. Amazingly it comes with all its original VW/ Devon manuals plus the original service book and factory data sticker. There are also plenty of invoices present in the paperwork along with MOT certificates dating right back to 1982. With its super low mileage and incredible unrestored condition, this unrepeatable example is ready to be used and enjoyed for many years to come.
