Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1978 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia Campmobile, a running and driving project, was originally sold through the tourist delivery program and has a documented history in the Pacific Northwest. Despite recent mechanical servicing, it exhibits significant cosmetic wear including rust, paint imperfections, and functional issues with the doors and interior components, indicating a need for substantial reconditioning.
Condition
4
The van is described as a 'project' and has several noted issues including rust, paint fading, inoperative windshield washer sprayer, bubbles and cracks in the paint, a sliding side door that requires additional effort to close, missing hubcaps, an inoperative CD changer, broken front seatbelt retainers, a missing inner handle for the sliding door, a battery drain when the stereo is installed, an inoperative icebox, lifting woodgrain, torn pop-up tent screens, and a fuel level gauge that reads inaccurately. While it is running and driving and has had some recent mechanical maintenance, the extent of the cosmetic and functional issues points to an 'Average' condition rating.
