* From a private collection
* Much history
* Presenting well inside and outside
Imported from California by a previous owner this 1960 'splittie' comes to auction from a private collection, where it has enjoyed high standards of maintenance. It is said to have very good bodywork, light blue paint and trim. A full length 'Westy' roofrack is fitted and the original wiper arms and front badge replaced by stainless steel aftermarket types. A side step affords easier entry. The interior, in bodywork-complementing light blue and off-white with tan carpet, is also in very good order. The headlining has been renewed and a surf board table, along with two drop-down 'buddy' seats, creates a more socially pleasing experience. Re-wired electrics include two remote-activated plug sockets and split-charging relay kit. The 1600cc engine (fitted with twin Webers) is said to be very good for starting, running and presentation and the running gear is also given a very good assessment from the vendor. In 2007 it received extensive restoration which included engine top-end re-build along with gearbox and brake overhauling. A new clutch, battery and up-rated alternator have been fitted. There is a good history file with the camper.
