NO MORE HOKEY POKEY! With substantial mechanical upgrades, Lucia now holds the road like a pro and cruises up mountain passes (and occasionally passing) w/new Westy designed springs and shocks and a GoWesty 100cc long block expansion (2.1 stock to 2.2 liters).
Substantial upgrades include:
103k — 16” wheels and tires installed by Gowesty (larger than stock).

Sellers Comments
My father bought this ‘87 Type II Westfalia Campmobile in 1992 and Pamela and I traded him for it when he could no longer use it in 2006 at 95,481 miles. “Lucia” now has 195,278 true miles with the odometer replaced at 157,138 miles (see 1/10/2018 service record #012442). It now reads 38,140 miles.
We’ve striven to maintain as much of the original Westy features and character as possible, while modernizing for convenience. The most significant modernizations are in the engine, drivetrain, and vehicle mechanics. Cosmetic modifications include custom made draperies by Pamela, stereo speakers, Macintosh head unit, improved closet storage, insulated (carbon-neutral) wine and scotch cellar, USB charge port w/auxiliary battery level readout. Other regular maintenance (done primarily by NNG) includes oil changes every 3000 miles, and CV boots, bushings and bearings, hose and belt replacements, brake pads and rotors, exhaust system and muffler, clutch, ball joints, window regulators, etc.
