Beskrivning
A rare original 1975 Westfalia Automatic RHD, 1800cc. She has not been converted and retains her original patina and therefore her vintage charm. She comes with both original instruction manuals, a collection of historical tax discs, receipts & a certificate of authenticity.
Too much work done to list everything but main items are: Engine replaced, Automatic Gear box reconditioned, Various body parts rebuilt including sills, jacking points and floor, Leisure battery system updated, Wheels refurbished, New Radio fitted, Heating system rebuilt, New Heat exchangers and Exhaust fitted; Canvas replaced, Gas System replaced, Internal fabrics replaced. a fuel cut off system has been fitted along with electronic ignition installed. There are spare parts that will go along with her.
New engine and leisure batteries have been installed. She starts and runs perfectly, a very reliable van.
There are a few rust bubbles showing on 3 of the panels. These are surface patches an d are entirely in keeping with a van of this age, the price is set to reflect this.
She has retained all the original fittings including the gas hob, cool box, hammock and stool. The sink has been disconnected and converted into additional storage. She can sleep 4 adults and one child in the hammock.
The van comes with the awning pictured, silver foil black-out blinds, gas bottle, the hammock, among other camping essentials. If these are not wanted the price will be adjusted accordingly.
Videos of body work reconstruction are available. As we are up in the North of Scotland (on the NC500), I will give any genuinely interested parties a video tour.
She had annual services at a specialist garage and is Mot and Tax exempt. This is a beautiful unique VW, a real character & a conversation starter wherever you go. Being automatic anyone can drive her and she effortlessly tackles the NC500.
The awning doubles the living space and provides a very special atmosphere. It’s a sealed unit that fits Van so easier to keep midges and mosquitoes out.
We’ve had many years of family fun with her but now it’s time for someone with more time to commit to getting out and about with her.
