Very special, 1967 VW Westfalia Campervan SOLD

This project started over 10 years ago to keep this as 'stock' as possible and where parts needed replacing to only use NOS - and apart from using top quality TMI door cards and seat covers that's what I've managed to do.
Alas my ability to crawl under the bus or lift tools to finish this project off in as near a perfect condition as possible has taken it toll and so the tough decision to sell to someone who will totally get how special this bus really is has now been taken.

There is so much detail to go into that the advert space is not sufficient so please contact me and I'll gladly talk it all through with any genuine prospective buyer but if you are a dreamer without the budget then please buy a VW history book.

To give you just a taster of the detail and condition

-the body..... welding wise, one battery tray custom made for me by Rick at Schofields and two small cab floor pieces done to invisible welds, that's it, body had dents but I took most out to a good level.
All panels fitted to this van were fitted at factory, so it has all its own original rust free body pressings.
It's a tin top in L512 green, van stripped to shell, painted inside, engine bay, outside and under... no underseal was or has been applied , no stone chip either.

I know almost every nut and bolt as everything was saved from the original strip down -it's a one key van, original number not rekeyed and has correct VW Witter keys from the states.
All the side tracks, sliding door, cab doors, front and rear bumpers , arches etc are mint originals..
Both bumpers have NOS small early style overiders with powder coated irons, the rear has a genuine Westfalia tow bar

The list of NOS or original parts goes on and on. To finish all you need to do is re-install the original first edition gearbox, together with the engine that has been rebuilt with mint condition tin ware, even the dizzy is correct for the year, carb, fuel pump and dynamo is the 38amp 14 volt unit which is NOS and has the correct cast pully, fan cover is not a dog house style, this is single port and all parts are as they would have been. Finish the work on the NOS brake set up and a small amount of final build fettling and it will be ready to use.

That hopefully gives you a taster of what you would be buying - I have no doubt that entered at any quality VW Show it will pick up prizes and feature as a magazine cover, but that was never my intention - it was always about finishing up with a useable but NOS condition tin top camper. This is a very special bus, I hate to use the word rare as it is so over used these days, but with L512 as the paint code and the 1967 build year there are many parts that VW must have just used up from the factory stock of Splitty parts available at the time.

The photo's do not do the build justice, ideally you need to see this in the flesh, but even if you are a collector from Europe and want to trailer this back to finish the work you will not be disappointed

Had a great deal of interest in this but still no sale, so I've reduced the price to reflect the little work still to do.
ONO offers will be considered as it sadly has to go.
