My birthday present

I picked this up this evening. My birthday present from me and mrsfig!

It's an early 1970 Westfalia, owned by one family since new. It has a great story to go with it and best of all I sniped a notorious exporter who was trying hard to get it.

More pics and story after the kamp-out this weekend.

Oh that's lovely fig. Congratulations man! LOVELY! That and your DC low light are fantastic! Looks quite deluxe too! Is that deluxe bling a later addition or did they come out like that?

Well now... is it the light in here or am I going an odd shade of envous green :)

I would love to see more photies of your Westy!
