Description of 1971 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Campmobile

Up for sale is Freda, my '71 Pastel White Westy. This bus went through a light restoration this past year. I have enjoyed working on it but it time to let it go to a good home.

The bus runs and drives quite well, steering is good with no play, and the brakes are firm. Engine hums along, and shifting is smooth. Transmission was not worked on.
Most of the body work and paint were done by the PO in Pastel White. Including left dog leg and lower front clip. I finished with the Pop Tops, Bumpers, and rear clip.
