Overview of 1970 Volkswagen Westfalia Pop Up For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

This reportedly-original Volkswagen Westfalia is finished in a mellow cream exterior with a tan interior. The van has been further customized for more storage, with drawers being installed in the interior. In addition, a custom cabinet is installed in the trunk area, and drawers are installed behind the front seats for more storage/camping. The bus also featured a Custom tachometer and a Kenwood stereo system to enjoy some smooth tunes on a long trip. While the van has some custom features, the bus is reported to be mostly original with a new horn and all its signals functioning.

Engine

With some custom mods on the vehicle's interior, this bus has a host of engine modifications. The bus is equipped with a Tuned 1600cc motor and tuned carbs with Bosch plug wires. The motor also features Dynamic Balance engine parts with a 3mm vacuum line coupled to a 4-speed manual transmission which was rebuilt in 2013, while the engine also underwent a major rebuild in 2011 with details for reference. The custom engine mods also feature a long block engine with a crankcase with a new OE engine case, a new clutch kit, and a new thermostat assembly. 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.
