While the Beetle propelled Volkswagen to success in the motoring world, in the subsequent years, the German automaker produced many iconic and memorable vehicles. One of those is the Volkswagen Type 2 — a forerunner in modern cargo and passenger vans. The Type 2 is derived from Volkswagen's first model: the Type 1, aka the Beetle. The Type 2 is more commonly known as the "Bus" in the States, and success was augmented by the camper conversion done by Westfalia-Werke in Germany. The camper conversion kit was very popular and was available from Volkswagen dealers worldwide. Up for sale is a 1970-produced Volkswagen Westfalia Pop Up with just 53,294 miles on the clock, of which the current owner used this subject bus for 46,648 miles.

In addition, the vehicle's suspension features new rear shocks replaced in 2013, while the ball joints have been replaced as well. The bus also has been installed with full flow fuel lines and a chemically cleaned gas tank and runs on 91 octane gasoline.
The Volkswagen Westfalia is a camper conversion done to the popular Volkswagen Type 2 microbus by Westfalia of Germany. Westfalia was the official camper conversion partner of Volkswagen from the early 1950s all the way up to 2003. That’s why if you’re an outdoorsy type with a fondness for classic vehicles, you should consider purchasing this Florida-based 1978 Volkswagen Westfalia. The van comes with all maintenance reportedly up to date for more peace of mind when exploring.
The Volkswagen Type 2, or T2 was the second-generation of the German automaker’s highly successful and much-loved Transporter, Kombi or Microbus. Produced from November 1949 and still in production as the sixth-generation Volkswagen Transporter, this iconic vehicle had a major role in the preferred transportation of the young, wild, and free. Camper conversions were a natural extension for this relatively compact vehicle that was reasonably spacious on the inside, and many manufacturers offered their take on it. One of those was Westfalia-Werke, who were officially contracted by Volkswagen to make the Volkswagen-Westfalia series of campers. What we’ve got here is a 1976 Volkswagen Westfalia Camper Van from Idaho with 76,000 miles on the clock, an ideal vehicle if you love the great outdoors and yearn to traverse it in a cult classic. It’s reportedly been recently refreshed and tuned up, with the current seller having invested over ten grand in it after purchase to keep it in tip-top shape. Some documentation is available too.
There are rare moments in automotive history when an entire brand speaks with one unified voice. For Volkswagen in the 1970s, that voice carried a message of peace, love, and freedom—values that came to define the era just as much as the cars themselves. From the Beetle to the Bus, VW’s lineup wasn’t just transportation; it was a rolling symbol of optimism and counterculture spirit. Fast forward to today, and that ethos lives on in this 1971 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia Van. With a reported 5,480 miles on the clock, this beautifully preserved German classic isn’t simply a vehicle—it’s a time capsule. Its cheerful presence invites you to shut down the weekday grind and embrace a slower, more meaningful pace of life. Whether it’s a long drive along coastal highways or a weekend escape under the stars, this Transporter is a reminder that journeys aren’t just about reaching destinations—they’re about enjoying the ride, in true Volkswagen fashion.
For decades, the Volkswagen Type 2 has represented freedom on four wheels, becoming one of the most recognizable camper vans ever produced. This 1972 Volkswagen Type 2 Transporter Camper Van carries on that legacy with its classic Orange and White finish, pop-top camper roof, and thoughtfully configured camper interior conversion. Showing approximately 88,815 miles, this air-cooled icon blends vintage character with the functionality that made these Transporters favorites among adventurers, surfers, and road-trip enthusiasts. Whether destined for weekend camping excursions, local Cars & Coffee events, or simply reliving the golden age of overland travel, this Type 2 is ready for its next chapter.
The Volkswagen Beetle is one of the most recognizable automobiles ever produced, earning a reputation for its simple engineering, unmistakable styling, and enduring reliability. This 1963 Volkswagen Beetle takes that iconic formula several steps further with a professionally upgraded drivetrain and numerous performance enhancements while retaining the timeless charm that has made the Beetle a beloved classic for generations. Showing off a striking Crimson Red finish over a Gray interior, this Beetle is powered by a Scat-built 2027cc air-cooled flat-four equipped with dual Weber 44mm carburetors, creating a spirited driving experience that far exceeds the performance of its original factory configuration.
The Volkswagen Karmann Ghia has long been admired for blending dependable German engineering with elegant Italian styling. Penned by Carrozzeria Ghia and hand-assembled by Karmann, it offered sports car looks while retaining the reliability and simplicity of the legendary Beetle. This 1969 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Coupe carries on that legacy, showing 155,708 miles and delivering the unmistakable charm that has made air-cooled Volkswagens favorites among collectors for decades. Finished in Cherry Red over a Black interior, this classic is equipped with a 4-speed manual transmission and even features a period General Electric CB radio, making it a nostalgic cruiser that’s equally enjoyable at local cars & coffee events or weekend drives.
