My name is Larry and I purchased a 1973 Volkswagen Westfalia Bus in 2005 from the previous owner who was located in Powdersville, Georgia. She had inherited it from her uncle who purchased the bus new from a dealership in Jacksonville, Florida.
She (the bus) was in pretty good shape when I purchased her. More on that later…
But for now, follow me along the trail to restoring her back to her original beauty…with maybe a few other upgrades.
Hello – Have any good insight on a 73 VW sportsmoble engine removal? Did you do that? I have a bug as well and have removed the engine a few times so I think I can do the Bus. Just wondering if you had any good advice. Nice blog too man!
Thanks
