Provenance of this Westy:
(link to more pics below)
I purchased this Westy in Tucson, Arizona in January 2018. My mother lives there so I visit often and was in the market for a Westy when I found it. An Arizona vehicle with an almost brand new condition under carriage. No rust, no rot, no decay. It looks brand new underneath.
No DIY work or bad customizations. The previous owner had already replaced the gas tank, all the brakes and suspension work, new wheels and tires with a 1-inch lift before he and his wife decided to get divorced.
So I bought her and sent her to the top VW mechanic in Tucson, for a tune up. I was prepared to get the call of all the things it needed. I was happily surprised when he said, all she needed was new plugs, wires and an oil change. Their words were – “She is pristine, she will go another 100,000 miles”
I then had her shipped out to Fort Lauderdale where I was living. I continued to tinker and fix her: Window cranks, some trim here and there, new headlights, new reverse switch, LED side lights, Pop-top assist struts, fuel pump, Trucker mirrors, new top seals, added a new canvas poptop from GOWesty, new up to code LPG tank. The stove, water tank/pressure and refrigerator work. I also have two additional front seats from a 1986 van - more cushioning/velour with armrests.
I am pretty sure I was GOWesty’s best client for about 6 months. I can share with you all the items I bought/installed.
Most importantly I installed:Eight new rods and lifters.new radiator and the five seals on the engine. 1) ATF seal (and filter). 2) Torque Converter seal.3&4) Two automatic transmission seals and 5) the differential pan seal. That means all new fluids, she runs cool and she doesn't leak.
But because she was from Arizona the paint was really, really faded and chalky. I looked at ways to preserve it – boiled linseed oil, clear coat, etc. It had some charm but really it needed new paint, particularly if she was going to be in Florida.
So near my home were some muscle car restorers and I stopped in. Expecting to be laughed at, the guys at the shop loved the van. They directed me to their buddy who had just opened up his own shop across the street who they thought would give me a better deal. And he did. I got a wonderful “windows-out” paint job, which means new rubber around the windows which really adds to her more modern look by not having the corroded chrome detail piece in it.
Yes there are lots of little things to upgrade/fix if you want. That’s the fun of owning a VW. The odometer does not work. One blinker does not blink all the time. I bought (but did not install) a Gowesty ATF cooler ($400) and high volume oil pump for taking her long distances. Install these and you can go anywhere. But I still drive her every day around town and it’s a blast. It has an A/C compressor but the belt is not connected. Never tried to connect it. I wouldn’t be surprised if it works, everything else on the van has come back to life with a little elbow grease and dusting off the Arizona desert.
I moved to Saint Pete in January and I have begun pursuing my original hobby and bought a sailboat.
So we have decided to send her off to the next stewards of her 36-year old life.
