Thank you. My Dad had a few. We 3 kids got out to push it up the Hills of Wisconsin. Part of our habitat for 2 weeks. Wish we never came home. The VW Camper did it's best to fulfill that dream. His 2nd one was mint. Stolen in 1 week. He gave up after that. He never complained or talked about it. I think his heart was broken. He loved those......VW Vans

I always told my dad, Terry, that’s the one I wish he’d restore. I’m glad it went to someone who did just that. It looks a lot better not sitting in our barn.

That's a bloody amazing find. Just fix up what needs fixing, and don't mess about with it too much. What a great piece of history.

What a wonderfull VW-Bulli T1 Great.

I’m 86 first time I’ve seen this gorgeous model. Thanks.

Absolutely love your van. I so wish I had bought one back in the 70s.....though I did have a Ford Van converted......but nothing like the VW. I guess I could find one now and just set it outside my sons house on his farm. I could sleep, cook, draw, crochet, write....etc.......like I do now.....and then just step into his house for the bathroom and shower. I'm used to living in a confined space.....so it wouldn't bother me at all to have just that size van. Anyway.....I'm rambling here...sorry. Thank you for sharing your van in here......and maybe I will get fired up enough to find one soon. You said you got yours in Tenn. I live in Ky.......is it a place that has lots of vans like that for sale? Or just a private owner?

I owned a 63 with a few differences….I took an epic trip appx 13k miles all around western USA 1969….with 2 buddies…painted it in garage kind British racing green bottom part. Had a friends dad build a water tank that fit perfect on roof rack for outside showers.Rebuilt engine 1500cc and header exhaust.Also put bumper rack on back for hodaka 90 trailbike…Made checking oil a pain which ultimately led to a rod bearing knock in Kansas as we were coming home.rebuilt engine on street in front of my friends uncles house….HA…. Would love to find it if it survived somehow but I sure it had buckets in front instead of bench.But was a stock westphalia…enough said….thanks for posting video!!

Just wanted to share that since I posted this video, I have been able to find the correct folding chair AND the missing chandelier!! Both items were found by people who saw THIS video! Internet for the win!! Thanks for everyone’s help

What an incredible find. I'm so wowed by the flip seat. I've never seen that!

This is just beautiful and you are the right people to have it :). We had a Westfalia when our children were small. We have great memories of camping with it. For about 20 years we’ve stored our 1983 VW Van because we couldn’t afford to get it running again..lol

that is Super Cool i always liked the front pop out windshield and sliding windows on the side but that popup roof i've never seen way Cool . so many cool things i can see why they were so popular and why so expensive if you can find them now .

Wow ! I love it

I’ve been into buses since ‘95 and I’ve always envied you guys that have a knack for finding buses. I have a buddy that used to “bump” into really nice finds without ever trying. 😀. What a wonderful bus you have there. Enjoy it!

Unbelievable.... Just ridiculous.......good for you. It's so unbelievable....I cant hardly believe thrres still a few out there waiting to be found and resurrected....amazing.🇺🇸👍

Beautiful

i'm completely jealous.. how much was that beauty? i would love the measurements to copy that interior....marvelous!

Awesome!

Love the hanging Wardrobe in these old ones.

How clever, and love the color of the wood , reminds me tiki wood used in boats. Just beautiful. Wish they would make them like that now.

My son has a 1977 bus that he drove 2500 miles back to the hillbilly state. Nice video just subscribed

Who would Downvote this beauty....... Probably those people would downvote their Mom's food!!

Thanks so much for your video. It brought back many memories for me. In Portland, Or. I got a '63 so34 in 1970. Have great memories of the adventures it took me on. Down to Mexico, all over the U.S. and into Canada. Also, went through a couple engines, too. One time at college, in the parking lot I had 13 people in it all smoking pot. Smoke billowed out when we opened the doors. It got parked on a farm in the early 80's and was eventually sold. I've had 3 other vw campers since them and am still driving one now days. Good luck on completing your restoration.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! Congratulations!

WAUW Schitterend!!

So cool, this is amazing. It's a total time capsule

Beautiful!!

My love,vw t1,you are so lucky with your location..greeting.

Beautiful westy. Thanks for sharing

beautiful bus! glad to see you enjoying it

Really a neat bus. My son loves these. Thank you for sharing

Spectacular Find! 😮

Absolutely beautiful mate! That’s a real gem 💎 you have there! Thanks for sharing.

Good God what a gorgeous find. My dad had a blue split-window westfalia with the tent add-on.

Too cool for school

Gorgeous!

wow that's an awesome find , and in a barn ? that's why it survived !

Cool bus !!

Una joya!,increíblemente preservada. Me encantó tu video.

"oh cool cabinets I bet that's for shirts and small items" nope, ice and liquor lmao. can't beat factory shot glasses

Great great video

Cracking video. Really informative and interesting to watch 👍🏻

A thing of beauty 🤩

This would be my absolute dream if I had one of these

wow very nice bus I would love to have one just like it congratulations.

Thank you! That bus is fantastic! Love from Oregon!

what a score!

NICE !! 😀👍

Your Bus is beautiful. Excellent vidio. That bus is mint. I wish they would still make these car's all way's wanted one!!

Wow ~ how cool and interesting. Thanks for sharing. What a Blessed find!!!!

This is an absolute beauty!! How lucky you are 🏅 The details and the design is incredible. I love Volkswagen, and have bought an LT35 from 1986: cant wait to restore her and go full time VanLife 🤗Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Camilla in Denmark ☀️

I never saw this kind of bus.!! Great video!

Superbe même avec ses points de rouille, il est magnifique et bien équipé

I had one plain delivery type, last year with split windows, just a delight to drive! Superb gearshift! With the separation wall to the rear compartment the heating in winter time was more than sufficient. Your Westfalia is pristine but I didn't know they came with front windows to open;)

Wow!

For 1962, they use larger, flatter Amber colored front turn signals; formerly "bullet" shaped clear front signals. It was 2 years ahead of the VW Beetle which uses that feature that began in 1964.

I'm 64, and would love nothing more to spend a week fishing for Trout with my girlfriend up at lake Sabrina in So California in your beautiful 63.

i believe the original engine for this is a 1500 originally ran on 6 volt. and it would of been equipped with a APG carburetor governer too. looks like its missing the wiper arms as this has the cool safari windows the safari wiper arms and the wiper parts have to be found.

I Love all of your videos, subscribed and always "Like"

I am IN LOVE with this van ugh I would sell my soul for it

Hey you said you had the original owners information you should try to get in touch with them see if they have the chandelier you never know might be in the garage

I had a 62 SO34 like this. Sold it for $2,000 in 1988. I'm such a stupid.

Flip Seat !

A bus like this is missing in my garage......

please i WANT it

Fantastic, what's safari's ? Please.

So I have a 1964 camper is mine and SO42 or how do you figure out what the numbers are? Thank you

What is that box on the headliner? Fresh air vent?

is that blue white and turquiose?

There is a device that's connected/clamped to the battery, can someone shed some light on this? Thanks

I have a pair of the flip seat brackets. Do you know of anyone looking for some?

Thanks I enjoyed the f*ck out of this video. Amazing bus.

!

Just curious, what you give for it?

As much as I love old vehicles like this and Volkswagens that would be way too small for me as a camper I would need something a lot bigger than that
