There are few automotive icons that bring as much joy and nostalgia as Volkswagens ubiquitous Bus. The Type 1 Bus first game to the states in 1951 and very characterized by their large number of windows (21 or 23). The later T2 model were much revised and were a bit larger and heavier than the early models. The T2 models were made famous by their partnership with Westfalia, a German based camper conversion company. With that legendary pairing, the famous VW Westy was born.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this stunning 1978 Westfalia for your consideration. Finished in classic Sage Green, this VW is a standout in any crowd. The body is impressively clean and dent and rot free and the van came to us from California The paint quality is excellent and the body is accented by white steel bumpers, white pop top, white painted wheels, dual chrome mirrors, and shiny chrome trim. The van also has front mounted spare tire and twin vented screen windows on the door and side. The Westfalia package brings a cool lifting camper top, and custom interior. The interior itself is lovely and in excellent condition. The seats are upholstered in matching green plaid and they are all in great shape. The dashboard is clean and original and the rear quarters have the folding seats, great wood cabinetry, sink, green curtains, carpeting, and tons of storage! The interior is a great place to spend extended amounts of time and is a true home on wheels.
This bus recently came out of California where it was very well taken care of. The 1.8L flat four engine is a peach and runs very well and is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission with a custom manual shift knob. This is a very nice running bus and is the perfect weekend companion. This bus goes down the road like a champ and is to ready cruise America just like it did in its heyday.
