- THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
The Type 2 presented here is an original Westfalia-built Campmobile in spectacular condition inside and out. Much paraphernalia can be found in the impressive history file, which indicates that the car was purchased new at the Kaiserslautern-based Volkswagen agency by Sargent Paul W. Persian, in September of 1966. Sgt. Persian is believed to have driven the Westfalia around Europe for 2 years before eventually shipping the Camper to the United States, and later gifting it to his nephew.
In recent times, the Type 2 Westfalia Campmobile has been treated to a comprehensive restoration, where the Camper was stripped down to bare metal and mechanicals removed for body work and paint. Both interior and exterior received a full restoration, including the original cabinets, camper upholstery, weather rack and hammock that extends over the front seats. Safari windows and other glass and rubber was replaced as well, while the front brakes were upgraded with disc brakes for safety. In 2016 the car was bought by a Los Angeles-based collector of excellent European sportscars, who has since toured the show circuit with the Westfalia, and winning First Place at the Palos Verdes Concours d'Elegance, as well as receiving numerous People's Choice Awards.
Accompanied with the Camper is the original bill of sale, including the notation of a loan taken out for the purchase from the Pentagon Credit union, jack, tools and spare tires included.
