Beautifully Restored VW Westfalia Started with a clean title, clean Carfax, and completely rust free. Exterior restoration: Vehicle was stripped of all rubber and trim, lights and accessories. Body was taken down to the metal, prepped and repainted a beautiful dark rich Bronze metallic, color sanded and buffed out. The paint work alone was $6, 700.00 The top was refurbished with the same attention to detail. New seals and all stainless steel hardware on the pop top. The luggage rack has all stainless tie-downs and screws. Canvas tent is new cotton with 3 zippered windows for cross ventilation and view. Headlights are restored OEM units, cleaned and polished. Bulbs are Sylvania Ultra Halogens. Interior: Interior is sparkling and has been completely shampooed and detailed to like new condition. Rear seat cushion has a small fabric defect, but is hardly noticeable. I did not want to replace the nice matching original material for something aftermarket and inferior to the original tough German fabric. Interior floor is protected with a full set of GoWesty all weather hex floor mats. Interior has been sound deadened with Dynamat. Stereo is a Top of the line Kenwood Excelon. USB, Bluetooth, Pandora, and aha, are all built in. Bonds to your phone and sends calls through the speakers. Microphone is mounted on the steering wheel. Camping gear: The sink and stove areas look brand new and work perfectly. The refrigerator works off of propane, electric, (Shore power), and battery. There is an R.V. battery installed and works with an 1100W inverter from GoWesty, as well as a GoWesty 80W Solar panel. You’ll never need to plug in for those off grid trips to have power. The propane tank was sandblasted, hydrostatically tested, and powder coated. All valves and safety equipment is new. A brand new TomTom GPS 740 live is included for your navigation needs. All GoWesty hook-ups are brand new. Mechanical Restoration: Engine was fully rebuilt by the respected S & S motors that specialize in VW and Subaru race engine builds. The engine is a VW 2.1 L with virtually all of the GoWesty upgrades. Too many details of what was done to list. All of the fuel lines were replaced as well as the fuel injector seals and intake runner boots. All external parts, cap, rotor, wires, filters, and belts were replaced. The alternator was replace with a rebuilt German Bosch unit. New exhaust installed as well with the GoWesty stainless steel catalytic convertor. Cooling system and radiator was completely flushed and filled and thermostat is the new GoWesty upgraded model. The radiator has a brand new fan motor as well. A/C unit is a rebuilt Sanden and works great, rare to have working A/C in these Westy’s… Runs clean and passes California’s strict smog requirements. Automatic transmission fully serviced with new fluids, filters, gaskets, and seals and shifts smoothly with now issues. Trans-cooler kit from Van Café also installed for transmission longevity and long continuous road trips keeping the transmission cool. Oil temperature gauge from Van Café also installed to eliminate the dreaded Vanagon low oil buzzer going off on the road falsely, unless it truly is low in oil. Both CV axles in the rear have been rebuilt. Front axles have new inner and outer wheel bearings. Both ball joints upper and lower, tie rod ends, and axles were replaced.
