Your Bidding on a Early '69 Poptop Westfalia Walk Through Camper 


This particular bus left the factory on Jan. 21, 1969 and was sold through San Francisco here in Northern California.      

Original Owners Manual and Camping Manual  say that it was sold New in San Jose at  " Bob Himsl " on March 21, 1969, it also has Original Plastic sleeve that both manuals slip in from this same Dealer .

The bus is pretty complete with most of it's Original camper interior and is Rock Solid .   The only visible signs of rust are around battery tray (Common) and a very small spot on driver front floor. There are some very small bubbles on passenger side windshield.  Underneath is very nice looking along with rockers, doglegs, jack supports, nose, etc.

The bus has been Off the road for the last few years, but recently was put back on the road.  It has California current registration and according to receipts had a New Engine less then 1600 miles back at 18481, current milage now is 20007  .   The Engine receipt is dated April of 2003 for a total cost of $ 1756.31.   It is a brand new case and is blank along with new heads. 

The bus sports it's Original California black plates that it started life out with back in March of '69.  This is truely rare these days, and '69 is the last year for black plates in our state.

The bus is pretty straight but does have a few battle scars from a combination of bad drivers, both rear corners have some dents as visable in pics. also a small one up front.

Some of the interor wood should be replaced, as well as it needs a new poptop seal. Both front seats need new seat covers. Previous owner put some white rattle can on front floors the day before I bought it, this should come off with some lacquer thinner.

The bus has it's original mosquito net ,rear netting and childs cot, all rear upholstry seems to be Original.

The bus does run and drive as I have said earlier but it does need a small mechanical service on brakes, and all usual things needed when making a car a daily driver again. 

The bus is really a good one for someone to restore or make it there weekend warrior. Extremley tough to find a early Bay Westy like this anymore and a true california black plate bus from new .

Also the bus comes with it's " Birth Certificate " from Volkswagen in Germany showing how it started out life.

I have a link to over 100 pics if anyone wants to see detailed pics

Shipping to Europe is not a problem, I have a shipper and the Port of Oakland is only 45 minutes away.


* I have a correct Westfalia tent from this vintage in my private stock, the winner of the auction has the oppertunity to buy it for an additonal cost.

VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico. Read the full statement below for more.

Translogic 168: CES 2015 Roundup

Wed, Jan 14 2015

Translogic and the yearly CES glorious gadget geekout go together like digital peanut butter and high-def jelly. At this year's show, surrounded by an egg-shaped Mercedes-Benz concept and the re-introduction of, of all things, the Sony Walkman, we had some fun. Between talking with Volkswagen about its new gesture-control tech and flying some video drones, we squeezed in some time to shred on ZBoard's new electric skateboard. The future is now.
