This 1971 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia is a pop-top camper that is finished in green and white and powered by a 1.6-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Features include 14″ steel wheels, cloth seats, an aftermarket stereo, custom-fabricated storage compartments, and a sleeping pad. The van was acquired by the seller in 2018, and subsequent service is said to have included reupholstering the seats and door panels, replacement of the fuel-level sending unit and floor coverings, and an oil change.
The body is said to have been refinished in its current green and white under prior ownership. Features include a fiberglass pop-top tent shell, a front-mounted spare tire with a cover, louvered side windows, and white bumpers with overriders.
Black-painted 14″ steel wheels feature VW-branded covers and are mounted with 185/70 Goodyear Viva 2 tires. The brake system requires servicing, aLording to the seller.
The seats and door panels have been recovered in patterned gray cloth with gray piping, and a black rubber mat lines the front footwell. Amenities include vent windows, a heater, and an aftermarket CD stereo.
A two-spoke steering wheel frames a 90-mph speedometer, a fuel-level gauge, various warning lights, and an oil temperature gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 24k miles.
Patterned gray cloth extends to the rear seats and side panels, while woodgrain laminate lines the floor. Additional features include tie-dyed curtains, wooden storage compartments, and a foam sleeping pad. A removed sink is reportedly included in the sale.
The air-cooled 1.6L flat-four is equipped with a single down-draft carburetor. Service performed during current ownership is said to have included replacement of the fuel-level sending unit and an oil change. The seller states that the engine will require a tune-up and the wiring harness needs to be organized.
Power is transferred to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transaxle.
